Is the devil still your lover?
Thanks to the massive success of
The Exorcist, every movie released after the middle of 1974 involved the devil. It was an awesome time to be a Satanist, especially with films like
Abby.
Abby in fact, much Barack Obama, broke boundaries by blending devil movies with blacksploitation.
Somehow, the Academy failed to notice this fine example of interracial genre-bending.
Next to
Abby, is the ad for
The Longest Yard. And since it played at the Balboa, the print ad has to reflect a sleazy gay movie vibe.
I find it amusing that part of the tagline for
Abby is, "...Can Any Man Save her?"
And a quick look to the right is the ad for Burt Reynolds in a speedo.
We're through the looking glass, people.
