Storyline
During Halloween, theater student Jenna Whooly returns to Bell Island to
spend the holiday with her family and her boyfriend Alex Martin, a
classmate of hers who was also raised on the island. Her younger brother
Douglas "Dougie" Whooly is very attached to Jenna and is fascinated
with the video game "Satan's Little Helper," and he becomes jealous with
the presence of Alex. He leaves home wearing his costume of Satan's
little helper, seeking Satan himself on the streets so he can ask him to
kill Alex. Dougie meets a serial killer who, coincidently, is wearing a
costume of Satan and decides to help him. He brings the insane murderer
home, and Jenna and her mother Merrill Whooly believe that the masked
killer is Alex acting like Satan to please Dougie. Later, the boy walks
with the maniac along the streets, helping him to terrorize the locals.

Rotten Tomatoes
Jeff Lieberman, celebrated by horror film buffs for his imaginative
cult favorites Squirm and Blue Sunshine, returns to filmmaking with this
offbeat shocker. It's late October, and Douglas (Alexander Brickel),
like most nine-year-olds, is looking forward to Halloween, especially
trick or treating. Doug's mother (Amanda Plummer) has made him a costume
based on a character from his favorite video game, Satan's Little
Helper, and his big sister Jenna (Katheryn Winnick) will be home from
college to
collect candy with him.
But Douglas is angry when Jenna's new boyfriend, Alex (Stephen Graham),
tags along, and he soon ditches his sister to go trick or treating
alone. While making the rounds, Douglas happens upon a serial killer
(Joshua Annex) dressed up like a monster from his video game; Douglas
admires the killer's grisly handiwork, and offers to act as his
assistant, just like in the game. First Douglas leads the maniac to
Alex, whom he soon kills, and then he brings him home, where Jenna and
Mom think the masked killer is just Alex in his Halloween costume. Shot
on digital video, Satan's Little Helper was screened at the 2004 Tribeca
Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
