Calling upon a Void

A father - William Russell (Bill Skadsgard) - returns from the Solomon Islands, World War 2, traumatized by the experience of killing, out of necessity, a comrade. Sets up a family with a waitress (Charlotte (Haley Bennett)). The devout Will finds his prayers unanswered - his son gets bullied and the wife (in spite of a "dog sacrifice") dies of cancer. And Will in his implacable devoutness takes his life. This begins the life of Arvin Russell (Tom Holland) in the movie The Devil all the Time.. almost a.satire that taunts evangelical faith at every turn. Then there is the serial killer couple (Carl (Jason Clarke) and Sandy (Riley Kelough ) with the protagonist admitting he feels God only when he kills after an act of depravity is committed upon his wife..And then there is Rev. Preston (Robert Pattinson) perhaps the most exploitative of all in the name of faith. these are some of the key characters in this gripping.black drama that'll shake your faith from the roots and make you wonder what dark belief system the creators are actually trying to convey. Gripping, unpredictable, and disturbing
