Evil within
22 December 2021
Who's bad? Yes that is something Michael Jackson asked in one of his songs, but it is also something that can be asked here. We get a former priest - someone who seems to have fallen out of faith. Someone who gets visited by a former friend and asked for a favor ... a favor that will test their friendship and maybe the sanity (of at least one of them) ... and so much more is at stake.

Now the movie starts off more in the sinister and scary but not vividly so category ... it does however go to extremes and anyone who has issues with torture (I mean I hope we all do, right? I mean problems watching it unfold on screen, even when you know it is fake - now that I see as given) ... well may have issues with watching the movie. Especially during one very painful scene ... pun very much intended. You may not be sure where this is going in that scene, but even if you are unsure or sure of the moral of it all and if it makes sense (or not) .. it is harrowing.

Crazy one may call it ... and I just realized this is called part 1 ... I would be down for a second one. But not sure if it'll happen ... especially because it has not been announced yet.
