    Evil S2E12: “D Is for Doll”

    It took a few rewatches of “D Is for Doll” for it to click for me. I wasn’t a huge fan until I started to piece together the ways in which it comes back around to some of the things alluded to earlier in the season. It’s not an episode with many “big” moments, but […] More

    Evil S2E11: “I Is for IRS”

    Evil S2E11, “I Is for IRS,” is a good reminder that Evil doesn’t always have to be scary. It can indeed be very scary, but it also is very skilled at being campy and just genuinely funny. It was pointed out on the Evil subreddit that the ditty being sung by Edward and Sheryl at […] More

    Aliens! Evil continues to cover all of the bases with S2E9 “U Is for U.F.O.” as our heroes are sent by Bishop Marx to assess the credibility of an Air Force pilot sighting a foreign airborne object.

    Evil S2E7: “S Is for Silence”

    With S2E7, “S Is for Silence,” Evil rewards us for the mid-season wait with an episode that delivers an ancient demonic curse, physical comedy and flourishes of silent film stylings, plenty of sexual tension, and some solid body horror to cap things off. This one is wild. Right off the bat is another clever take […] More

    Evil S2E6: “C Is for Cop”

    First of all, let’s talk about Evil S2’s ongoing motif of the pop-up book announcing the title of each episode. “C Is for Cop” looks different, showing the owner of the hands manipulating the book (at least in this episode) to be Sheryl. After replacing the book on the shelf in the Bouchard daughters’ bedroom […] More

    Evil S2E5: “Z Is for Zombie”

    Hoo boy, “Z Is for Zombie” brings the spooky this week. While actual zombies are probably the least plausible possibility of Evil so far, this episode works exceptionally well in how it utilizes sound and cinematography. Evil S2E5 opens with Lila Bouchard and her friend Alex watching a zombie movie together. Lila briefly gets up […] More

    Hoo, boy, is Evil’s latest episode, “E Is for Elevator” (S2E4), an absolute banger. I mean, they all are, but this one is too. Is it irony if Michael Emerson’s acting ability feels like a godsend for him playing such a convincingly devilish character? Leland, you love to hate him, is having the time of […] More
