American Nightmares

"Halfway between horror and comedy, 'Mr. Malevolent' is a collection of stories about contemporary issues, such as racial violence, abortion and fake news and lies politics -- with a focus on the American context during the administration of President Donald Trump. It is a production in the style of 'Tales from the Crypt', with a frivolous and ridiculous aesthetic that borders on cheesy, typical of B productions. And thus, the funny side stands out. This is the case with the charismatic Danny Trejo ('Machete'), perfect in one of the "tales". Finally, 'Mr. Malevolent' is the perfect opportunity to see other good actors on stage, such as Vivica A. Fox (from 'Kill Bill: Volume 1'), Nichelle Nichols (Nyota Uhura in the classic television series 'Star Trek') and Saturday Night Live cast member Chris Kattan."
