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.

Classic Troma. You should watch this if you haven’t.
Samuel L Jackson gets a credit for less than a minute of screen time but the actual succubus who is in at least half the film doesn't get a credit in the film description on hete at all
This was good! I loved the dialogue and the characters. It's dumb that they put Samuel L. Jackson at the forefront of the movie's cast in the description because he doesn't even have 20 minutes of screen time.
Def worth a watch! 😝 I’m biased as I truly do love Troma films. This has its giggle points but is a little more ‘serious’ for a Troma film (if ya know what I mean, ya know). Story base was great, don’t mind the confusion in the beginning, they didn’t do a very good “foreshadowing” effect, came out jumbled. However, fun watch, huge practical effects fan & they preformed extremely well in that department. In true Troma fashion, I say: Give into temptation & feast your eyes upon the true evil lurking in the lust….
It's Troma and it's what you expect.
