The Devil and Sam Silverstein

“Do you lust for Power, Fame, Riches? Do you want to meet Beautiful Women? Sam did. So he made a deal with the Devil... What a Deal! What a Fling!”

Synopsis

The Devil sets his sights on Sam Silverstein, a sexually frustrated sixty-five-year-old Jewish husband in crisis, whom he selects as an easy mark. At first Silverstein resists, but as life moves from one disappointment to another, he agrees to sell his soul for a chance to make out with a pretty young thing.
