Really, though, perhaps we're being unkind.  The movie, after all, is a simple story about
a man, a nice man,  enjoying life with his family and his children...

and his mistress...

who just happens to get involved in a satanic plot to rob him of his family, home and fortune.  

Could happen to anyone, really.
