Hoop-tober the Ninth Chapter Ten: To Hell With Strangers Bearing Pizza

"Hello, fish."

Despite my general unenthusiasm for devil stuff, I ended up loving this one mainly for the creepy stillness of its first hour. Besides the yawn-ish satanic storyline, I'm a little skeptical of West's overall '70s/'80s nostalgia project, but it does mostly work here. Payoff not as good as buildup, still enjoyable. Tom Noonan GOAT in this kind of role.
