While the wholesome small town charms of Sweet Magnolias had us hosting virtual margarita dates over Zoom, it looks like Netflix has another small town story in store—but with a much darker plot.
Created by Antonio Campos, Netflix’s The Devil All The Time is an interpretation of Donald Ray Pollock’s award-winning 2011 novel. Set between different timelines, the plot spans the events of World War II up to the stirrings of the American involvement in the Vietnam War—and includes many shadowy characters.

What Is The Plot Of The Devil All The Time?
In The Devil All The Time, intrigue unfolds within the city limits of the eerie community called Knockemstiff, with each of the town’s residents harbouring a dangerous secret.
The story follows the story of Arvin Russell, a highly religious man, who makes it his personal mission to uncover the frightening mysteries of his small town. Arvin’s search for the truth leads him down a dark road, forcing him to cross paths with Knockemstiff’s most dangerous residents: a murderous couple, a law-bending sheriff, and a scamming pastor in a powder blue suit.
