The film creates a vivid portrait of a subculture in which Satan is a central figure.

Both a chronicle of death and retribution and, as the title suggests, a portrait of the American dream gone gamy.

As a dispassionate portrait of an America where the Devil is still a credible force, and everyone seems corrupt, the film does not just expose horror. It delivers viewers into a garden of evil, and forces them to choose their own demons.

What a sad commentary on humanity and the flawed justice system it relies on.
