All About Evil

Skip the endless scrolling — All About Evil, on Shudder Amazon Channel and Shudder Apple TV Channel, is exactly the comedy you were looking for. It knows exactly what kind of film it is from the opening scene, and never loses that thread. 58 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Natasha Lyonne leads a cast with real comic timing. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Shudder Amazon Channel.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, All About Evil is worth clearing space for. All About Evil does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. A mousy librarian inherits her father's beloved but failing old movie house. In order to save the family business, she discovers her inner serial killer — and a legion of rabid gore fans — when she starts turning out a series of grisly shorts. What her fans don't realize yet is that the murders in the movies are all too real… Between them, Natasha Lyonne and Thomas Dekker carry the comedy without ever forcing it. It was released in 2010. All About Evil earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

For viewers who want something light without wanting something stupid, All About Evil respects your intelligence. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. The complete film is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Natasha Lyonne's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
