Now I feel like Pazuzu must have be quite amused by Pun-Pun's antics roflmao EDIT: for some reason YT is being stupid and I can't respond to comments, not even to responses to my own (I even cleared cache and it's still broken) so I can't explain properly below: Pun-Pun is a character build from D&D 3.5 that at level 1 (Psion Sage Psicrystal, Skill Focus, 18 Int, and a masterwork reference needed) could pull off an infinite Wish loop that is started with Pazuzu that abuses the Candle of Invocation and Sarrukh to achieve ultimate power to the point people joke he'd win if Tharizdun and Asmodeus had a showdown.
He is. The image @2:55 is an interpretation of the large statue of Pazuzu near the beginning of the film. IRL Pazuzu was invoked by ancient Babylonians seeking protection from Lamashtu (who was reputed to cause harm to mother and child at childbirth) However, Pazuzu was not a "good guy" nor "misunderstood". He was the "god" of the southwestern wind and associated with plagues.
