The Devil has a spotty track record for movies in recent years
The End of Days (1999)
The Ninth Gate (1999)
Little Nicky (2000)
Bedazzled (2000)
Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (2006)
I've probably missed some.
Mostly flops and not well received. I think The Ninth Gate was the best, and I actually like some of the others, but i won't go into that.
There was a spurt in the 1999-2000 timeframe, probably because of the assumed significance to the millennial event.
