Just in time for Halloween, filmmakers Sam Dunn and Scot MacFadyen join Shad to discuss their unflinching new documentary, Satan Lives.
The film takes a close look at faith, fear, and our enduring cultural obsession with the devil. Silly and humourous depictions of Satan are common, but the dark figure is taken a lot more seriously in this documentary — he is, after all, the ultimate metaphor for evil.
q: How do you conceive of Satan? A kitschy pop culture figure? A useful metaphor? A dark force to be feared?
