The Devil All the Time ticks all the boxes for a gritty and gothic movie and brings you into the mindset of serial killers, statutory rapists, corrupted, and the conflicted people. It doesn't pull its punches when showing you violence or graphic imagery, even though it doesn't have that many, The script is also written by Antonio Campos and it is based on the novel of the same name written by Donald Ray Pollock.

For all the bad and vile people in Meade (Ohio), and Knockemstiff, I think Robert Pattinson's character, Reverend Preston Teagarden is the true villain of the story, and believe me, The Devil All The Time has no shortage of villains. Robert Pattinson in his short screentime managed to establish a character who is a hypocrite, truly vile, and oblivious to other people's pain.

Cinemablind will give 'The Devil All The Time' - [8.0/10]


P.S. Robert Pattinson should have gotten more screentime.
