The young kid looks like a homosexual elf with the mesmerizing look of a heading eye dog. Just right for a movie promoting the occult. The Bible says Elijah would come and restore all things. This is a homosexual, OCCULT version.

I think maybe you're looking for hobgoblins. Tolkien was a close friend of C.S. Lewis, author of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, and it was Lewis who converted Tolkien to Christianity. The Lord of the Rings is not an allegorical work as is The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. Just because it doesn't have a Christ figure as C.S. Lewis' work, does not mean that the Lord of the Rings is satanic work and promotes evil. In my opinion, the Lord of the Rings has a certian moral clarity that many works today do not have. Perhaps you should read it before condemning it.

Not to be nit-picky, but it was the other way around.

It was Tolkien who converted CS Lewis to Christianity. Tolkien was a devout Catholic his entire life.

I don't have to visit a whorehouse, a drug house or a porn movie house to know they are evil.  The Bible says I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple [innocent] concerning evil.  It says to set nothing wicked before one's eyes and describes sorcery and enchantment in detail in Deut. 18 and condemns it.  Have you read the Bible?  If not, try it...and google:
