Def By Temptation
Directed by James Bond III
A succubus is hell-bent on using her seductive powers to destroy a young minister in this low-budget Troma hit featuring a pre-fame Samuel L. Jackson. Joel (director James Bond III) found religion after his parents died in a mysterious crash, while his best friend K (Kadeem Hardison) became a big player. When Joel visits K in NYC, he meets a sexy demon who is determined to drag him down to hell, unless the Lord can help him resist her charms. DEF helped pave the way for the ‘90s Black horror revival that resulted in hits like CANDYMAN and TALES FROM THE HOOD. Contains strong language, sexual scenes, violence and gore.

this is bad
Great acting all around. im into it.
This movie is too legit to quit!
I honestly thought I dreamt this movie as a kid because I remember K getting eaten by the T.V. But to realize the movie was indeed real, meaning they actually made this movie, now I know I wasn't going crazy. I highly recommend you watch this and head over to Dead Meat on YouTube and watch James A. Janiesse break down the kill count on this movie. it's dope.
Genuine minor classic. Very stylish (filmed by Ernest Dickerson, Spike Lee's cameraman) and tongue in cheek, goofy and fun. Still puzzled about how Troma had anything to do with this.
