During a post-premiere audience Q&A at Fantastic Fest, director Demián Rugna said he got the idea for When Evil Lurks from a series of news stories about farm pesticides in his native Argentina causing widespread health issues.

Featured in Horrible Reviews: Best Movies I've Seen In 2023 (2024). Cuando Acecha la MaldadWritten by Miguel Roldan (as Miguel Roldan (Logos))Performed by Pasco 367Orchestrated & arranged by Pablo Fuu. Seriously underrated movie. I watched the original version with Spanish subtitles, and in my opinion it is the best way to watch. Anyway, if you expected cruelty and horror prepare to not be disappointed because seriously, this movies delivers! With that being said, it does have its lacks, first of all this is obviously meant to be the beginning of a franchise (you'll realize that after watching the cliffhanger ending), nonetheless, this small production Argentinian movie is not afraid to hurt anyone's feelings. What I can tell you for certain is that this is the best it gets, just don't expect the sequel to be half as good.
