The American Satan franchise consists of American supernatural-thrillers centered around a hard rock band; including one limited theatrical movie, a sequel television series, and studio albums released by the faux band from the franchise. The overall plot centers around a fictional band named The Relentless, who make a contract with a nefarious supernatural force in attempts to reach their dreams of fame. Created by Ash Avildsen, the events are based on supposed real-life experiences he's had in the music industry.

The 2017 movie received positive critical reception upon its release.[1] Despite its mild box office performance through its limited theatrical run,[2] Avildsen hopes the film will eventually be called a cult classic.[3] The sequel television series was similarly well received by critics and its viewers; with praise directed at its expansion with individual character development.[4][5]
