(SPOILER-ISH) The Dark and the Wicked was as depressing as it was horrid. The kind of movie that leaves you feeling awful for hours afterwards. Brother and sister Michael and Louise return to the family farm as their father lies on his deathbed. Mama told 'em not to come, but kids never listen. Pretty soon terrible things start happening, including Mama cutting up some carrots late at night while evil lurks... and the chopping, chopping, chopping, "OMG MAMA YOUR FINGERS, THEY SAID DICED, NOT MINCED!"
That's just the tip of the ghastly iceberg. Horrible visions, creepy visitors, people being overcome by evil spirits, The Dark and the Wicked has it all. Even goat murders, which I am not a fan of. Bonus points for even having a lof cute goats at the farm though. The movie poster has a floating entity way above the house, but we never actually see it higher than 3 feet during the film, so that seems like some false advertising. Regardless, I was sufficiently disturbed by The Dark and the Wicked so I'll give it 8 nurses stabbing themselves in the eyes with knitting needles out of 10.
