Evil
2003, 110 minutes, Rated MA
A sadistic group of power-tripping rich kids terrorise a young misfit at an elite private school during the fascist oppression of the 50s in Sweden.
With his James Dean good looks, the highly intelligent and strong-willed Erik's real problem is his abusive stepfather who dishes out nightly beltings for even the most minor dinner table infractions. One schoolyard fight too many has the teenager sent to an exclusive boarding school notorious for its discipline.
Punishment is doled out by the senior class whose philosophy, methods and appearance mirros that of spit-shined SS officers. Erik's attempts to toe the line and shield his new firends from the seniors' violent reign fail and events boil over in a terrifying climax.
