July 21-27 Eddie Griffin Week: This motherfucker is funny!

Is Eddie Griffin becoming the black comedy Eric Roberts? How else can we explain him playing the devil in this film, the demon who got Donald Trump (Jeff Rector, whose career includes Dinosaur Valley Girls, Street Soldiers, and Hellmaster) to the White House? All those times that he got away with things that you didn’t understand? All the devil.

Director Parem Gill must have something on Eddie, as he also directed Going to America, another movie starring the actor.

This is essentially everything we experienced in 2016. I didn’t enjoy it then, and I don’t really want to see it now. That said, the casting of Stormy Daniels as herself is somewhat inspired. As for Putin (Kevin Indio Copeland) being part of this hellplot, well, sure. I guess.

This should be a stunning indictment, but it’s instead a boring nap, one from which you wake up hating yourself. Why does the devil need a Game of Thrones chair? Why did I watch this? I use movies to escape, and this made me question everything I believe in, like spending day after day in my basement, watching Jess Franco movies. Man, if Jess and Lina were alive, they’d make a pretty good Trump movie. I imagine he steals diamonds, uses them to pay off Lina for his affair, and then ends up facing off with the Red Lips, only to be drained of life by Soledad Miranda.

Maybe that’s a good use of AI, finally, huh?

You can watch this on Tubi.
