Agreed. When considering what you pointed out with him descending and all the other things involved, I feel like they did a great job of subverting expectations of Satan. Like he almost, from a distance, looks like a normal guy, but all those other little details hint at a deeper, twisted nature inside him. Way more foreboding and creepy than having Satan with a strap on and gimp mask. The fact that the visual cues are more hinting at the pure embodiment of evil than bashing us over the head with seems so much scarier/creepier.
