The Killing of Satan

The Killing of Satan (Lumaban ka, Satanas in Tagalog-Filipino) is a 1983 horror film from the Philippines, starring Ramon Revilla. "Horror film" is a misnomer. It has a middle-aged "everyman" hero named Lando San Miguel, who is charged with assassinating Satan as well as his lieutenant the Prince of Magic. If you want a taste of what the apocalypse would look like in the tropics (and how quick and campy it would be, flamboyant sorcerers, topless typhoon sequences, Satan in a red tuxedo and all), this movie is it.

Here's a trailer for it.

This film has examples of:
"Lando. You are yellow, Satan!"
 * Lando's look as he  is DEFINITELY that of a heroic Christian knight.
 * The Atoner: Lando is an ex-convict who is released from prison at the start of the film.
 * Badass Mustache: Lando; the Prince of Magic
 * Chosen One: Lando is granted what amounts to the powers of God following the death of his uncle.
 * Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?
 * Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?


 * The Dragon: The Prince of Magic
 * Everything's Better With Spinning
 * Fan Service: If you consider the National Geographic-style nudity in Satan's dungeon as such.
 * Fantastic Religious Weirdness
 * Guns Are Worthless: Played straight and averted. Several people are shot in the beginning of the film, but when Lando takes his own gun to Satan's stronghold, he never uses it, favoring instead his newfound holy magic.
 * Hong Kong Dub
 * Immune to Bullets: Lando becomes this when he triggers the power in his left hand.
 * Major Injury Underreaction: Lando simply walks off major injuries after fight scenes.
 * McGuffin: A talisman is stolen from a village's shrine by the agents of Satan. Their afflictions (as well as the movie) end the instant Lando recovers it.
 * Panty Shot
 * Porn Stache
 * Reptiles Are Abhorrent
 * Satan
 * The X of Y
