See this film: Legend @ the Brattle

The cold weather makes everyone long to visit someplace warm, but the Brattle might be taking that impulse to infernal extremes with their series "Dead of Winter: Satan on Screen." Their round-up of hellacious hits begins today with the European cut of Ridley Scott's Legend (1985), in which Tom Cruise plays a hero who must save his land from a demon played by Tim Curry. Or is it the other way around?
