Question: Why was Robert De Niro cleanly shaven at the end?

You know, it's funny you should mention that. I actually just watched The Mission recently after seeing Angel Heart and couldn't help noticing that Robert De Niro had the exact same beard. It was strange seeing him looking exactly the same since in that movie he plays the exact opposite of Louis Cypher.
If Clint Eastwood and Chuck Norris got into a fight, Clint Eastwood would probably win. -

The character doesn't know he's in a movie. If you met someone in real life with that name, would your reacation actually be, "Hey, I bet he's Satan incarnate"? I'm guessing no, especially, if you, like Harry, don't believe in such things.

Are you saying that Satan was in the form of the original Favourit?

So we're to assume Angel/Favorite was standing in front of the mirror at Margaret's apartment struggling for his identity, goes to kill Epiphany, then is back in front of the mirror again? Nah, Cyphre picked up the gun and dog tags and framed him

You guys need to review the film:
1.- WHENEVER Angel gets flashbacks with a fan suddently rotating backwards, he's being under Satan's infuence and thus killing someone.
2.- Cyphe clearly said that Johnny killed them all, under HIS guidance.
3.- Johnny finally remembers doing all that after Cyphre leaves.
Cyphre only placed the dogtags and gun, nothing else. -

- Where's the fan/hallucination pertaining to Epiphany's murder?
- Yes, killed, past tense, but now Cypher takes it upon himself to kill, picks up the gun and dog tags, and afterwards waits outside the murder scene, clean-shaven.
- When is this shown?

I don't think that Cyphre's physical form resembled that of Harold Angel. There's nothing other than him being vaguely familiar to Johnny that would imply such a thing.

Yes he was. If you watch the flashbacks at the end of the movie, when you arrive to the scene with the 1st person POV moving through the crowd (when they were searching for their sacrifice), it ends on a split second shot of Robert DeNiro's clean shaven face.
My theory is that it is not the Devil that DeNiro plays, but the real Harry Angel the disguise is the appearance of the Devil.
This is why "the Devil" had control over Harry Angel (as Mickey Rourke); it is because he was under the influence of the real Harry Angel's (as Robert DeNiro) soul.
In the end, Johnny Favorite was looking into a mirror (if not literally then figuratively) and seeing what was inside of him. -

Everyone is talking about when Rourke walks passed DeNiro sitting on the walkway dressed all in black, not the New Year's scene.
The end of the film already explains what happened, so your "theory" not only makes no sense, it's irrelevant.
