Watchlist:

After the lord of darkness decides he will not cede his throne to any of his three sons, the two most powerful of them escape to Earth to create a kingdom for themselves. This action closes the portal filtering sinful souls to Hell and causes Satan to wither away. He must send his most weak but beloved son, Little Nicky, to Earth to return his brothers to Hell.

Why you might like this:

Fans of Adam Sandler's irreverent, offbeat humor will find plenty to enjoy in the 2000 fantasy comedy Little Nicky, directed by Steven Brill. Sandler shines as the lovably awkward title character, the son of Satan, who must travel to Earth to stop his evil brothers from taking over the underworld and closing the gates of hell. With its blend of slapstick, supernatural elements, and Sandler's signature goofy charm, Little Nicky offers a delightfully unique cinematic experience.
