Made for TV movies that werent lighthearted from this era all have the same creepy feel to them. Because they are shprt on effects, they use the score and setting to amp up tue suspense. Something Evil is no different than How Awful About Alan, A Taste of Evil, The House That Wouldn't Die and the Norliss Tapes to me. These movies do succeed at conveying mood. Their pacing leaves alot to be desired but movies were like that in this more leisurely time.
I enjoy seeing Sandy Dennis and Darren McGavin and it's early Spielberg too though the only things Speilberg about it to me is having a kid play a central part to the plot and the reaction shots.
