It's a visceral film, and the two talk about that for a bit.Is it weird to like a movie that's so pointedly miserable?Kathryn, "This movie just evoked in me a lot of 'social sadness'.".The film isn't drawing attention to it, but virtually every character within the film exists in a state of marginalization.When Evil Lurks has conviction. It trusts what it's doing, and it trusts you'll understand it.It's not as vicious as Terrifier 2, but the violence here is pretty nuts."Evil loves children. And children love evil."Discussing those two crazy shocking scenes in the film.
