Okay I’m doing reviews for every episode of Todd and the
book of pure evil I’m doing season 1 first; season 2 won’t be posted till about
April. So I’m starting with season 1 episode 1 Todd and the book of pure evil: “Todd
the Metal God” Spoilers included.
The show basically
begins on a stage, Todd Smith is having his heavy metal fantasy where he’s the
best guitar player in the world and along in the back his one armed friend Curtis
is drumming as if he had 2 arms. The fantasy ends when Curtis’ arm fly’s off
and lands right in front of judges for auditions for the battle of the bands.
Todd and Curtis apparently suck in real life and get booed off the stage by a
crowed of masturbators which was started by the boyfriend of the girl of his
dreams, Jenny Kolinsky.
Jenny talks to the school counselor (Atticus Murphy Junior) about
how her father mysteriously disappeared about a year ago and how she was
snooping through his office and found a picture of a man in a robe with
pentagrams engraved to his hand holding a book. Atticus tells her that her dad
just left her and that book meant nothing. Jenny storms out in a rage and
Atticus picks up his phone and dials a number and talks about how they’ll need
to take care of the daughter too.
Todd who is now depressed and Curtis’ help being of no help
at all, smashes his guitar where three parking lot metal head stoners tell him
about a magical book that will grant him his any wish, so Todd runs into a
trophy case where the book’s been hiding while daydreaming about his dream girl
Jenny. He offers the school janitor Jimmy his lucky condom and some loose cash
to open the trophy case. He goes home and finds a spell that will make him a
metal god.
Todd says a spell
from the book and after a few moments the book does nothing he thinks he wasted
his time when all of a sudden it turns into a guitar. He goes to school and
challenges Jenny’s boyfriend to a guitar duel where Todd threatens to make him
bleed out of his ass. So in the lunchroom Todd play’s against Jenny’s
boyfriend. Todd slays him and makes him bleed out his ass just like he promised;
as Jenny’s boyfriend wants her to help him she’s too busy noticing the patterns
on the guitar are very similar to the book in the picture.
Todd outside talking with his new friends kicks Curtis out
of there metal band “Barbarian Apocalypse”, now it’s performance night and
jenny wants to get to the bottom of the whole Todd and the book of pure evil
thing, so she tries to seduce him, but a demonic conscience makes Todd lock her
in his locker.
Todd who is now possessed by a demon plays on stage and his
hypnotic music forces everyone to head bang so hard they bleed. Curtis just so
happened to be walking through the halls where he heard jenny’s cries for help.
He frees her from the locker where they go to the battle of the bands room.
Jenny see’ everyone’s under a spell so she tells Curtis to plug his ears, and
pulls the fire alarm. Everyone rushes out except for Todd who is still possessed,
Curtis, Jenny, and Atticus who is hiding in the back. Todd jumps off the stage
and is ready to go and kill Curtis and jenny when jenny takes Curtis’ fake arm
and throws it at Todd who trips on it and drops the guitar of pure evil. Curtis
gets down and pulls out his lighter thinking it’s a good idea, but jenny, possessed
Todd, and Atticus think otherwise. Curtis looks at them and say’s “sorry but
this bad bitch has got to burn.” And sets it on fire. The guitar suddenly turns
back into the book and flies away. Todd, Jenny, and Curtis are now walking away
discussing matters of if they get paid or not. Atticus who is in a mysterious
room surrounded by Satanists talking about what had happened.
I thought this was awesome for a pilot episode and the
episodes just got better and better, I recommend you check this show out on the
space channel, comedy network, fearnet, and now on Syfy UK.
