Satan s'amuse (Satán se divierte in Spanish, Satan at Play in English[1]) is a 1907 French silent film directed by pioneer Segundo de Chomón. It is often confused with Le spectre rouge, notably in the IMDb database and subsequently in YouTube attributions.

Plot

[edit]

The Devil visits Earth on a magic elevator. He surprises two sewer workers, disguises himself, and spreads chaos: a quarrel with a coachman, an altercation with a police sergeant, the confusion for a barman and others. He is trapped in a cage with a young woman and returns to Hell. It is revealed that the young woman is, in fact, the jealous Madame Devil in disguise.
