Blu-ray Review – Hellbent

1988's "Hellbent" is writer/director Richard Casey's take on a Faustian tale of personal corruption, only his version is set in a strange playland of punk rock, performance art, and Christmas cheer. It's a premixed cult title that's bad with introductions and iffy with payoff, but Casey certainly isn't phoning it in with this ode to the evils of the music business, laboring to explore themes and moods, but he often forgets there's a story that should be told here, keeping "Hellbent" more meandering than it should be.
