Once In A Lifetime #22 "Face of Evil" (Patreon)

“Take note, Lifetime, CBS is eating your lunch!” - Eric, on the fine quality of this film

On this eerie edition of Once In A Lifetime, we’re talking about the totally watchable made-for-TV thriller, Face of Evil! How outrageous is this airport bathroom sequence? Is this dad’s ponytail street legal? Doesn’t the little girl at the beginning of this movie look exactly like the feral kid from The Road Warrior? How brutal is that finger-in-the-door move? Who okay’d Shawnee’s hair in this movie? And did the writers of this film see Weekend At Bernie’s II or what? PLUS: Million dollar idea — a priest bar called HOLY SMOKES.

Face of Evil stars Tracey Gold, Shawnee Smith, Don Harvey, Brigitta Day, Simi Mehta, Mireille Enos, and Perry King as Russel Polk; directed by Mary Lambert.
