Because there are so many uncreative slasher flicks, you have to commend filmmakers when they go against the grain, even if the end product isn't great.

With that in mind, let's look at Satan's Little Helper. This film revolves around a serial killer called The Satan Man, who terrorises a town on Halloween. What makes this devilish psycho different from the average movie psycho is the fact that he's assisted by a nine-year-old called Dougie!!

Dougie gets so angry how his sister spends all her time with her boyfriend, Alex, he storms out of his house on Halloween. When he finds a figure dressed in a Satanic mask, Dougie mistakes him for the real Devil and asks him to send Alex to Hell. After he brings Satan Man into his home, it isn't long before he's tormenting Dougie's family.

Although we learn little of the murderer himself, we can tell Satan Man is smart, since he keeps switching costumes, and placing his outfit on his victims to avoid being caught. The fact he dresses up as Jesus to encourage Dougie to let him back into the house also proves he has a really twisted sense of humour.
