Gabriel Byrne
Gabriel Byrne
So, who knew Satan had an Irish accent? But, oh did he as played by the
Lovely Gabriel Byrne in the horrific End of Days,
co-starring Arnold "I
wanna be Governor of California" Schwarzenegger as the aptly named
Jericho Cane (he did seem a bit like his walls were crumbling). So, Mr.
Byrne didn't talk much. So, he got more and more mutilated as the film
went on. He was still the Hottest Lucifer this side of Viggo Mortensen.
And he got to wear a fabulous coat. And boy, was it ever fabulous. So
fabulous that he even threatened Arnold when he came close to ruining
it. That's right. Skinny Irish Boy threatened Conan himself.
Priceless.
As a total aside to this homage, what is the deal with various movie Satans? I mean, I can see why directors want to get Hot Guys like Mr. Byrne and Mr. Mortensen (in The Prophecy), or even Hot Girls like Elizabeth Hurley (in Bedazzled). Let's face it. If you're the Ultimate in Evil, wouldn't you want to look your best? So why on earth are some Satans Butt Ugly? It makes no sense whatsoever. Clearly, I think we've shown that Hot Guys make the Best Satans. I wish everyone would just keep up with this.
But, I digress. Back to the Wonderful Mr. Byrne. Much to my Eternal Embarrassment, I actually saw End of Days in the theater. Twice. I did it all for you, Mr. Byrne.
it's gotta be the coat
um, dude, it's Satan 
strange, considering he's listed in the credits as The Man,
but I have to go with my gut instinct here
