Skeptical psychologist Kristen Bouchard joins David Acosta, who is training to be a Catholic priest, and a blue collar contractor as they investigate the church's backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions and other extraordinary occurrences. Their job is to assess if there's a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work, examining the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion. The series is created by Robert and Michelle King.

Evil reminds us that these are all just stories, yarns to help us survive in the world. Go to Full Review

Emerson jumps into that pool with two feet and splashes around like a sugar-shocked toddler, which reminds us that one of the reasons evil is so seductive is that it's so darn amusing. Go to Full Review

It wastes absolutely zero time getting us right back into the circumstances that left our jaws on our respective floors when season one ended in January 2020. Go to Full Review

Evil has all the makings of traditional catholic horror, yet it continuously brings a unique perspective to one of the horror genre’s most well-trodden grounds. Go to Full Review

Ian S Jan 26 Not as good as the first series. The second series took a more lighthearted approach which sometimes just became silly or worse, boring.The writing was much better in the first series and the episodes actually had a resolution or continued on. The whole story line with Leland and the church was over the top and ridiculous re the exorcism and then working for the church while the Christine Lahti character was simply a misfire. See more Michael A. @BlackMagic Sep 19 Evil continues to tell horrifying stories that put evil in a whole new light. What separates spiritual evil from the evil man can do to each other? See more Paul Aug 29 Really loved this show See more Peter D @peterduenas May 12 Todas las tempradas me gustan. See more Gabriel W 02/05/2025 Akte X bekommt Konkurenz. Nur ohne Ufos, sondern mit Dämonen. Man merkt dem Cast die Spielfreude deutlich an. Und so wie es sein soll, ist nahezu jede Folge auch ein neuer Fall. Man kann viele interessante Diskussionen über Glauben erleben, aber auch unheimliche Dämonen, die skurrile Gespräche führen. Man könnte sagen, wie neben Akte X auch eine Erwachsenenversion von Buffy. Und mit fortschreitenden Folgen wird es sehr Erwachsen. Vor allem im Umgang mit Sexualität. Allerdings nicht Explizit. Mehr auf moralischer Ebene. Das Make Up ist Top. Auch die Herangehensweise mit einem angehenden Priester, einer Gerichts Psychologin und einem Techniker. Was die Serie besonders macht ist auch, dass nie ganz klar ist, was wirklich ist und was nicht. Es ist ein genialer Drahtseilakt. Auch der "Hauptgegner" macht eine sehr bedrohliche "gute Figur". Es ist erstaunlich mit wieviel Kreativität hier herangegangen wird. Ab Staffel 2 leutet ein Bilderbuch die Folge ein. Das macht Laune. Hin und wieder gibt es auch den Hinweis: Wer den Vorspann weiterskipt, wird von Dämonen heimgesucht. Rotten Tomatoes: Staffel 1: 92% Staffel 2: 95% Staffel 3: 100% Staffel 4: 100% und Rotten Tomatoes Awards als beste Horror Serie. Es gibt auch viel zu lachen. Absolute Empfehlung. Eine Serie, die den Sprung auf die Leinwand verdient hätte. See more Cosmo W @CosmoTheTruth 01/25/2025 Absolutely brilliant series! After watching all the seasons, I have to say season one stands out as the best. Overall, this show is a 5/5 for me—completely binge-worthy and a fantastic watch. See more Read all reviews
