If you grew up in the 80s, you know that every aspect of pop culture was affected by, what some dubbed, “Satanic Panic.” Musical artists like Ozzy Osbourne, Twisted Sister, and even Motley Crue were accused of bringing Satan into suburban homes. The Church of Satan was in full swing and well, something had to give. A new film takes a look at where all these accusations by “good Christians” started.

Dan Jones and Jesse Pollack’s powerful The Acid King, the story of Ricky Kasso, an American teenager who murdered his friend, Gary Lauwers, in an alleged "Satanic sacrifice" during the summer of 1984, premieres On Demand November.

On Demand November 9 from Wild Eye Releasing and we have the official trailer for ya below.
