Needful Things

The movie 'Needful Things' primarily evokes strong negative emotions as it depicts the insidious manipulation of a small town by a supernatural entity. Anxiety is paramount, driven by the escalating chaos and the devil's machinations. This is closely followed by intense Fear of the supernatural evil and the violent breakdown of society, and significant Anger at the malevolent antagonist and the destructive actions of the manipulated townspeople. Sadness and a sense of the Disturbing permeate the narrative as the town descends into violence and tragedy. Empathy is felt for the few characters trying to resist the pervasive evil, while Melancholy settles in as the idyllic town is irrevocably corrupted.
