Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
rodv Having re-watched this movie just recently, I thought I should add a review. I am not a film critic, by any means, I just know what I like. And I like this. Lance Henriksen is always good. This role was suited for him in every way and I can't wait to see where they take this in the future. The idea of how much pharmaceuticals play in our lives makes for a good story. The movie paced good enough to keep me interested throughout. Timing was perfect. The actors did a good job of really bringing the scrip to life, and Lance Henriksen's narration, gave the movie a nice creepiness that played well with the theme. I look forward to a sequel with Lance Henriksen reprising the role and Peter Eaton at the helm.
wallismcclain I would guess that Necessary Evil was a vanity project for writer/star Eric Feldman, whose acting is so laid back and lethargic that you'd think he was playing a stoned druggie rather than a detective investigating a gruesome and mysterious disappearances.Feldman's script is not much better. The story is preposterous, with plot holes and logical gaps in every scene. In the beginning, a group of mercenaries raid a sacred (?) site to find the "monster" and obtain its blood/DNA to create a new drug. They are inexplicably accompanied by a woman dressed in what appears to be a Halloween version of a belly-dancer's outfit. Why? It is never explained, and the character never reappears.Poor Lance Hendrickson. He must have reached the bottom of the acting barrel. The only actor in this film to whom I would give a positive review is Kathryn Fiore, who would appear to have a talent for comedy. She should use it.Frankly, I am not sure what happens in the movie. And the ending is perplexing: Det. Lt. Russo is injected with the new drug Reciful ("Lucifer") -- or the monster's DNA? -- and should be all rights be dead or have become a monster himself, yet at the end he seems perfectly fine.A ghastly effort.
joeex94 great movie A+++++++++ director did a fantastic job.i would also recommend seeing gravity and sweet good fortune they all are great.i would recommend all these movies to somebody who really enjoys a great movie.movies have a great plot and necessary evil really shows that with great suspense and the acting was perfect.the movie was smart and unpredictable had a different twist to it than most movies.id give this movie a 10
xinix111 After a good kick off the movie is surprising and takes weird turns and I liked that.The sound editors could have done a better job and the empty spaces in sound made me wonder sometimes. I noticed that necessary evil is also a game book but its hard to tell if this movie is related to that. That this movie did not get that much attention must have been because its weirdness but then again, Danny Trejo does what he does best and some other well known actors showed their typical faces.Therefore I think that this movie deserves more attention. Everyone who likes a psychedelic weird surprise will probably enjoy this movie. And that this partly less experienced actors and writers/directors could have pulled this off is worth a Praise.Still not great but worth watching.6 of 10
