BONUS WILDCARD WEEK (September 22 – 28) Go order something from the SWV website and watch it!

Cindy (Cindy West) is not having a good day. She’s been drugged and assaulted by Dean Carlson (John Buco), who has made her pregnant. She runs to tell her mechanic boyfriend Willie Joe (Davey Jones), but after making love and telling him that he’s the father, he dumps her. She runs to her father, the only man who never let her down, only to discover that he’s balls deep in her best friend Barbie (Lisa Grant). She screams so loud that she has a miscarriage and loses her voice.

Cindy runs again, this time to the big city, where she moves in with Dawn (Andrea True, who would go on to sing “More, More, More) and Nicky (Darby Lloyd Rains), two lesbians who say that she’s the best thing that ever happened to them.

This wouldn’t have this title if it wasn’t for Kampala (Gus Thomas, who would go on to become Cortland, New York District Attorney Mark Suben) and his sex cult. Cindy soon sees right through the leader, as men have ruined her life. The girls all conspire to take over the sex group — Jamie Gillis is also a member, along with Marc Stevens, Georgina Spelvin (the same year that she was in The Devil In Ms. Jones) and Tina Russell — and this movie rewards us with dialogue like,  “You may find this kind of strange, Cindy, but I work for the Devil!” and “You must kiss the cock of Satan!” Also: Death by poisoned nipples.

Devil’s Due is really influenced by the Church of Satan photo layouts that often appeared in men’s magazines. Directed by Ernest Danna and written by Gerry Pound, it’s not great but it is fun if you enjoy the occult of the 70s.
