Star-studded Southern Gothic - The Devil All The Time

 


Based on Donald Ray Pollock's novel of the same name, "The Devil All The Time" blends hard boiled crime fiction with Southern Gothic ... and even horror. The sprawling plot follows a young man growing up in a violent, poverty stricken Appalachia - whose hero's quest travels through the dangerous underworld of crooked cops, predatory preachers and roaming serial killers. Director Antonio Campos based the film adaptation's powerfully evocative visual style on the works of artist Andrew Wyeth and photographer William Eggleston. The star-studded ensemble cast is packed with Tom Holland, Bill SkarsgÄrd, Riley Keough, Jason Clarke, Sebastian Stan, Haley Bennett, Eliza Scanlen, Mia Wasikowska, and Robert Pattinson. Four star. - Brent Snyder
