“The Evil in Us” unhinges the doors of rage and the
core of human passions and emotions are permeated with evil, yet the sincere
joys of love and laughter are present in this flick.
This movie is not a predicable story of college aged
men and women getting slaughtered in the woods on an island off the coast of
Seattle. All the vicious killers in “The Evil in Us” have had their minds maliciously
poisoned from cocaine or marijuana. A large government agency run by a
republican Texas senator and his baleful band of buffoons manufactures a new
drug they put into both coke and weed.
Once ingested, it’s just a matter of time before a
lover must bury an axe into her beau for her own protection or a bestie bashing
their pal in the head with a hammer.
Two young lovers go weekending with a small group of
the males’ friends on a privately owned island, complete with a house, but no
Wi-Fi.
The head detective and the forensic squad have the daunting
task of locating and figuring out whose manufacturing this drug which too often
induces cannibalism, violent hallucinations and a lust for murder. This devious
drug of ultimate mind destruction pulverizes even the kindness of souls to execute
the most heinous acts of atrocities.
Homeland Defence Senator, Elias Cob, a republican from
Texas is well-acted by Robert Leaf, a character you like to hate in this movie.
Debs Howard portrays Brie Armstrong and is the lone person on the island who doesn’t
do any cocaine. She is forced to deal with her violently drug ridden lover, and
his four friends on the island. Notice how director and screen-writer, Jason
William Lee deliberately misspelled defense, a nice jab at the republicans.
This Hulu flick has disturbing unseen violence on incredibly
young children. I applaud writer / director Lee, for his ability to convey sheer
horror with sagacious insight. This movie is defiantly suited for the genre of
horror and suspense. Three and a half stars for “The Evil in Us.”
