Plot
In London, 1991, Don Fox (Owen Wilson) is working as a Laserdisc salesman, which he believes will be the future in home entertainment. But his life changes forever when Leo (Patrick Warburton) introduces him to Satanism. King Joe (Chris Lloyd), a local priest, attempts to change Don's ways. He is the villain, though, because he is a murderer and possibly a pedophile. The movie ends with a fifteen-minute long shot of Leo's dead body as Don weeps and kisses Leo on his pale, lifeless, cold lips. The credits roll, set to Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt". Then King Joe interrupts, "Hey wait! Don't you want to know what happened to me??" He then performs "My Way" in his own stage show in Vegas. The villain wins in this one, sorry folks
