Cargo revealed the first look – teaser trailer for Satan Wants You, a documentary on the Satanic Panic of the 1980s ignited by the bestselling book Michelle Remembers.
Directed by Sean Horlor and Steve J. Adams, Satan Wants You world premieres at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival.
Satan Wants You tells the untold story of how the Satanic Panic of the 1980s was ignited by “Michelle Remembers”, a lurid memoir by psychiatrist Larry Pazder and his patient Michelle Smith. Supported by the Catholic Church, the bestselling book relied on recovered-memory therapy to uncover Michelle’s childhood abduction by baby-stealing Satanists. Amplified by law enforcement and America’s Daytime TV boom, satanic rumors spread through panic-stricken communities across the world, leaving a wave of destruction and wrongful convictions in their wake. This film digs deep into the roots of moral panics and cult conspiracies, showing how these events still affect and distort our reality today.
