{"product_id":"she-devil-1934-mod-dvd-movie","title":"She Devil (1934) (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)","description":"Thomas Catt, the owner of a Louisiana nightclub, wants sexy young Myrtle Williams to work for him as an escort girl. Her uncle, preacher Amos Berry, wants to save the poor girl from a life of sin, but is helpless to act. Years ago, Amos served time in jail for murder. Thomas is the only one who knows the preacher's past, and threatens to expose the truth if Amos tries to interfere with his plans for Myrtle. In desperation, Amos turns to his Aunt Hagar, an old voodoo priestess who lives on the outskirts of town. She invokes a ritual to bring forth vengeance on Thomas, but the devil she unleashes will not be satisfied with the soul of just one man...\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Considered the earliest all-black horror movie by historians, \u003ci\u003eShe Devil\u003c\/i\u003e is based on a stage play called \u003ci\u003eLouisiana\u003c\/i\u003e that ran on Broadway, produced by the Negro Theatre Guild and written by J. Augustus Smith (making it also the first film based on the work of an African-American playwright.) It was performed only eight times, as audiences found the subject matter objectionable. Laura Bowman, Morris McKenney, Edna Barr, A.B. DeComathiere, and author Smith all reprised their roles from the stage version. Director Arthur Hoerl also scripted the cult favorite \u003ci\u003eReefer Madness\u003c\/i\u003e (1936) and the first big screen live-action adaptation of \u003ci\u003eSuperman\u003c\/i\u003e (1948). Alternate titles for \u003ci\u003eShe Devil\u003c\/i\u003e include \u003ci\u003eDrums O' Voodoo\u003c\/i\u003e and simply \u003ci\u003eThe Devil\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Note: Due to the age and rarity of this film, some picture anomalies exist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e BONUS: \u003cb\u003e \u003ci\u003eWoman's A Fool\u003c\/i\u003e (1947):\u003c\/b\u003e This short subject captures on film an all-black musical revue at the Rose Room in Dallas, Texas.
