Deftly adapted from the hit novel, The Devil All The Time presents a profoundly grim and corrupt portrait of 1950s backwoods America. The clever intersections of a range of well-defined characters make this long film absorbing, with standout performances from Bill Skarsgard and Tom Holland. The sense of inevitability and repeating patterns is well-handled, and whilst there is little cheer or light on offer here, the film oozes quality in every aspect.
