Evil at the Door Review
Evil at the Door is a 2021 feature film written and directed by Kipp Tribble.
Feeling like one of those cheesy late-night rentals off a Blockbuster shelf back in the day, Evil at the Door is a B-Movie style knockoff of much better films you’ve probably seen before.
This is a film made on a tiny budget. Issues ranging from cameras with low fidelity, audio issues, and even a few areas where the focus is missed, everything screams no to low budget filmmaking.
While this may be the case, there are still some moments that have at least some fun during the viewing experience. The two stand out characters being Nixon as portrayed by Kenny Yates and Isaac as portrayed by Robert Fested Jr. Both actors are clearly having fun with their characters and their scenes are highlights during the film.
It is a shame that there aren’t more tongue-in-cheek moments like that here, though, because when we get bogged down with all the lore and jargon of this world, it is just in one ear and out the other. It feels like it is trying to emulate the much more successful Purge series of films while doing a bit of its own thing. This, however, ultimately raises more questions than the film has answers to.
You are best off watching this without thinking too much about it because once you do, it all just falls apart.
Are there better films to invest your time in? Yes completely, but if you are having a boring night and want something that will just play in the background, this is a good option for you.
Overall Evil at the Door has some good bits and some interesting characters. It is not enough to feel any kind of emotional connection to while you are watching. It is really like the fast food of films. It will fill you up, but you won’t really feel satisfied by any of it when you are done.
