American Satan Page #7

Guess we're not in L. A. anymore.

(CHUCKLES)

Well, you should have kept

on driving, boy.

All right. Settle down. We're gonna

finish these drinks and we'll f*** off.

Yeah, you're gonna f*** off.

You're gonna f*** off

after I talk to God

and see which one of you

motherfuckers...

Come on, guys, (STUTTERS) let's

go, all right? Let's just go.

No, f*** that.

We're gonna get drunk

in your shitty little bar

and there's nothing

you can do about it.

Turn around and walk out that

door before I drag your asses out.

F*** you, you ugly ass

inbred redneck.

- Hey, man, that's enough.

- Johnny, Johnny, come on, dude. (STUTTERS) Let's just go.

All right,

before you girls get going,

why don't you have f***ing

La Bamba make me some guacamole.

Hey! Apologize

for that racist bullshit

or I'll knock your f***ing teeth

down your throat,

and that goes for all five

of you f***ing clowns.

White trash f***ing pigs!

("ME AGAINST THE DEVIL" PLAYING)

Through faith and fire

I'll be by your side

(GRUNTING)

The devil's a liar

But my love will never die

Well don't sing me praise

- (INAUDIBLE)

- (GRUNTS)

It's my last chance

Take that, boy.

For what could be

(GRUNTS)

(CHUCKLES)

Where is your God now?

(GROANING)

(GRUNTS)

Die slow, b*tch.

(SCREAMS)

(CAMERA CLICKING)

Get off me!

Los Angeles based

heavy metal band, Relentless...

That's The Relentless.

(STUTTERS) The name of the band.

Okay. The Relentless,

was involved in a brutal

bar fight that left one man dead

and several injured.

The record label has posted

the $1.5 million bail

for the singer, Johnny Faust.

How do you feel

about the release

of The American Satan?

It's American Satan,

not The American Satan,

and I feel terrific.

Aren't you concerned

about the message

this band is sending?

Sir, have you listened

to the record

or even read the lyrics?

- I have not, but it...

- I see.

But it seems

that there is no shame

in the death of a...

That was self-defense.

And, uh, very unfortunately,

there was a death.

But if someone physically

attacks someone else,

that is a risk that they take.

I guess now it's up

to a jury to decide

if it was self-defense or not.

Oh, yeah. (CHUCKLES)

Yes, that is the process.

You really know your stuff,

don't you?

What do you plan to do

now that your singer

cannot leave the state

because he's awaiting trial?

I thought you'd never ask.

We have put together

the biggest,

baddest hard rock festival

that this part of Middle America

has ever seen.

Shoving it right up the ass

of all the bigots

- until they're shitting pentagrams.

- Mm.

("LET HIM BURN" PLAYING)

Let him burn what he did

Let him burn what he said

Let him burn

Hail, Mary

Let him burn

He's better off dead

No, I can't change

Can't change my ways

No, I can't be your enemy

This congregation

Of confrontation

Surroundings

Don't define you

Upon the fire

It's burning higher

Only actions can speak

The truth

I choose my faith

It's never too late

Looking through the gates

The devil awaits

This congregation

Of confrontation

Surroundings

Don't define you

Upon the fire

It's burning higher

Only actions can speak

The truth

(CROWD CHEERING)

LEO:

We've got to tell Lily.

JOHNNY:
Look, he hasn't even shown

himself since we made the record.

The record, the live show, the

press, that's what got us here.

I'm not a f***ing puppet.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But you heard Hawk, right?

The fact we were in Kansas the day the

album came out can't be a coincidence.

You don't think Elias is

in league with him, do you?

Still, how do we even start

that convo, man? Now...

Until that fool morphs into

something, I'm not buying it.

Lily, you know, she wears

devil stuff for fashion.

Maybe she's his daughter.

(CHUCKLES)

Or maybe I've just been

stuck here in Kansas

rigging a jury to make sure

your best friend

doesn't have to spend the rest

of his life in jail?

Or maybe Elias and Lily

have known each other

longer than you think?

Or maybe you guys

are so desperate

to be rock gods,

that your ego caused your brain

to hallucinate me?

So many questions,

so few clues.

You want to be the future,

you gotta pay your dues.

More inspiration

to sing the f***ing blues.

Verdict is not guilty,

citing the stand-your-ground law

which states a person

may use deadly force

in self-defense when faced

with a reasonable

perceived threat.

- REPORTER:
Johnny.

- ELIAS:
Give him some room. Give him some room.

- Johnny, do you have a comment?

- Back. Back.

No, no.

(CROWD CHEERING)

God bless America.

("RAISE HELL" PLAYING)

Gotta raise a little hell

Young blood run like a river

Young blood

Never get chained

Young blood

Heaven need a sinner

We did it.

I love you.

Young blood

Came to start a riot

Don't care

What your old man say

Young blood

Heaven hate a sinner

But we gonna raise hell anyway

Raise hell

Yeah

Raise hell

Somebody gotta

Gotta raise a little hell

Baby, sell that soul

Heaven fare thee well

DYLAN:
Can you f***ing believe

it? We're number one on Billboard.

We are f***ing raging tonight.

Let's party at my old work.

It's time to show you guys.

Ricky, you come with me.

What the f*** is this place?

- Use your imagination.

- Is, uh, this a brothel?

I prefer bordello.

Are you one of them girls?

No one touches me here,

unless I want them to.

What's with that painting

of Baphomet?

This is where the elite come to play. The

occult stuff is just part of the theme.

Ricky.

- Are you on coke?

- Yeah. Yeah.

I am totally f***ed up. Look

at this place. It's marvelous!

(ALL CHUCKLING)

Guys, I think I'd get in trouble

here. I'm gonna go crash at my mom's.

- Oh, come on.

- (RICKY LAUGHS)

- F*** that, we're celebrating.

- No.

Could you hook up

some psychedelics?

Take all your breath

and watch it come awake

(MUSIC PLAYING ON CAR RADIO)

(LINE RINGING)

I told the ladies

you have all access tonight.

Make it count, boys.

VOICEMAIL:
Your call has been

forwarded to an automated...

- (CHUCKLES)

- F*** it.

("B*TCHES BREW" PLAYING)

As the moon ascends

The wolves come out

To see the end

They hide from view and wait

To watch the ghost inside you

Come awake

And when the shots go off

You hear them call

My heart is racing

Just to see it all

To watch you crawl out

Of your changing shape

Take all your breath

And watch it come awake

From the flames of the fire

I feel you crawling

To my bed

Throwing shapes at the sky

I watch you crying to me

I'm gonna put you two

in the next music video!

You should come on tour

and be stage dancers!

The shows are getting bigger!

Everything is bigger!

And guess who's steering the ship?

It's only f***ing Captain Ricky!

It's all f***ing brilliant!

- Sounds amazing. How much you gonna pay us?

- Yeah.

Well, I can put you on a salary,

or if you girls prefer cash,

how about a thousand dollars

a day?

Hmm?

Whatever you say,

Mr. Manager.

Can we interest you?

The deal is f***ing inked.
