Om denne film

When media-savvy members of the Satanic Temple organize a series of public actions designed to advocate for religious freedom and challenge corrupt authority, they prove that with little more than a clever idea, a mischievous sense of humor, and a few rebellious friends, you can speak truth to power in some truly profound ways. As charming and funny as it is thought-provoking, Hail Satan? offers a timely look at a group of often misunderstood outsiders whose unwavering commitment to social and political justice has empowered thousands of people around the world. An inspiring and entertaining new feature documentary from acclaimed director Penny Lane (Nuts!, Our Nixon).

Wannabe "satanists" that use it as an identity & religion for their political endeavors than a philosophy. Did not delve deep into the history of satanism much, this is more of a documentary mostly about The Satanic Temple organization and not the full spectrum of other esoteric groups that may have existed.

Fantastic expose on how TST got started. I loved the "fly on the wall" point-of-view camera shots with the Satanists in their own element. The editing was spot on. The content was amazing. It didn't drag on and on like other documentaries have a tendency to do. Truly riveting to watch. I loved it.

A fantastic documentary. Cleanly crafted, great storytelling, compelling interviews, and super fun. I was able to see a screening and theatres, and I'm absolutely going to purchase this film. The audience that night was laughing and cheering; the Satanic Temple has surely got it right. They're a far cry from the LaVey Church of Satan, and this film makes sure that people have a much more clear view of what they do, and why they do it. The cast of characters is never boring, and their stories are told in a way that really makes you feel like you're getting to know them. Can't recommend it enough, and expecting that this film will win a lot more awards in the future. A great example of the simple fact that you can do good in your community and the world without God. Hail Satan!
