682. Devil’s Partner (1961)

<When we last left off, The Warlock and Mr. America had finished Silent Night, Bloody Night and freed noted scientist Dr. Taylor Ahearn. Taylor told the duo that the reason the Toys started abducting their friends had something to do with Satan’s wife Lucinda. The Warlock met up with Lucinda and she told him that more people are trapped and he needs to finish what he started. We pick up in The Base with The Warlock pacing around with Mr. America sitting in his computer chair*

A: Will you stop pacing around?

W: I’m trying to figure out what Lucinda met by “there’s more trapped.”

A: What do you mean Lucinda? You mean that crazy bitch that tried to kill us back at Hell’s Highway?

W: Yeah, she’s the key to all this. We have to finish the movies and the S.O.F. Project once and for all.

A: I’m not doing a damn thing until you tell me what’s going on.

W: Alright, this is what I can piece together. Lucinda is none other than Satan’s wife, and eight years ago he found out about our little romps. That’s why he kept sending the Demonic Toys after us. Remember how they would appear after certain movies were over? They were able to trap themselves into the movies and were released when we finished them. They started kidnapping our associates like Dr. Ahearn and trapping them in movies with them expecting to be released. Well, as you know, we never touched certain movies we were supposed to and we closed the portal to hell in The Lair. So the Toys trapped our friends in the S.O.F. Project movies instead, hence why The Lair quakes. All the souls were trapped and unable to get out, so the Toys simply abandoned their revenge. When we brought back the S.O.F. Project, we started releasing the souls and Satan is aware. Lucinda says he’s still mad about it.

*America facepalms*

A: So you mean we’re all gonna die because you fucked Satan’s wife?

W: Not if I can help it. We got seven movies left and once we release all the souls, its over.

A: Fine, what movie is next?

*Warlock looks at the box he brought over and looks at one*

W: DEVIL’S PARTNER.

A: Ironic….

*Warlock turns to the camera*

W: Welcome to The Base…..welcome I don’t think so, but enter. Enter The Base if you dare. I’m your host The Warlock. We have seven movies left in the S.O.F. Project and for those scoring at home, Mr. America has a two point lead over me and three over Mr. Wallstreet heading into tonight’s movie. What is tonight’s movie? The 1958 horror movie DEVIL’S PARTNER.

A: I didn’t know the devil had a partner.

W: Get this, the movie was filmed in 1958 but was never actually released. Three years later Roger Corman found it, bought the rights and distributed it under his own film group. So what’s it about? You’re gonna love this. An old man sells his soul to the devil to become young again so he can win over a woman from his rival.

A: Be careful what you wish for!

*Warlock takes his seat in the recliner*

W: Exactly. Now this movie has two things against it, first its from 1958 so the body count may be a little low and the other is I have no idea who any of the actors are, that’s a bad sign. The good news is the movie is only 73 minutes long so if it sucks, at least its short. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman because its time for DEVIL’S PARTNER.

*America reads the tag-line*

A: “An old man sells his soul to the devil, and turns into a young man. He then uses witchcraft and black magic to win a woman from his rival.”

W: Yeah like that is gonna work.

*After the movie is over*

W: Alright, so we all got points so America is still in the lead over me by two and Wallstreet by three.

A: Haha, yes!

*All of a sudden a green cloud emerges from the PS5*

A: Oh no, not this shit again.

*The cloud splits into two*

W: What the hell?

*Two different faces appear in the clouds*

W: Bruceman and Ashlee?

A: Who the hell are they?

B: What the hell? Where am I?

*Ashlee’s cloud disappears*

W: Wait, Bruceman? What the hell are you doing here?

B: That’s what I want to know.

W: How long have you been trapped in there?

B: I literally got up this morning and I was surrounded by the Demonic Toys from the Charles Band movie.

A: You know about them??

B: Of course. I didn’t think they were fuckin real though.

W: But that was today?

B: Yeah.

W: Alright, you’re free now.

B: Thank fuckin god. I couldn’t stand that other bitch’s voice.

W: What do you mean other bitch?

B: This other bitch that was with us and some weird looking dude.

*The cloud disappears*

A: What the hell was he talking about?

W: I don’t know, only to way to find out is to finish this. Merry Christmas everyone.
