The Storyteller. The Soldier and Death

Returning from war, a young solider trades his last biscuit for a magical sack..into which anything summoned will enter! Trapping devils and even death itself, the solder brings peace to his country. But Death soon proves a greater enemy captured then free.
My favorite of the Storyteller series, though its close with the Heartless Giant. Brilliantly written, executed, acted and edited and the cinematography here is the best from the series. The card game with the devils gives m the same excitement chills it did when I first saw it in kindergarden in 1989 and every time afterward on tape.
Best lines:

Devil: That’s a nice whistle. Ahh want ta hav it!
…
Soldier: So… what shall we play for?
Devil 1: his soul!
Devil 2: his whistle
Devil 3: his TEETH…. aye collect teeth…
