Synopsis

Todd and the Book of Pure Evil is a Canadian comedy/horror television series that follows a group of high school students who confront the effects of a demonic book. The series premiered on Space Channel on September 29, 2010 with two back-to-back episodes. The show was created for television by Craig David Wallace, Charles Picco, and Anthony Leo. Todd and the Book of Pure Evil is based on the short film of the same title written by Craig David Wallace and Max Reid, and directed by Wallace. The short film was produced through the Canadian Film Centre’s Short Dramatic Film Programme, and kicked off an international festival tour by premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2003. The series was developed for television through the National Screen Institute's Totally TV Program. A pilot for Todd and the Book of Pure Evil was shot for Space in 2009 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Like the low-budget short film, the series uses supernatural elements, profanity, graphic violence and non-sequitur lines. Sci-fi veteran David Winning directed four episodes. Each episode was produced with two variations of the audio track: a pre-watershed version with "clean" replacement dialogue dubbed in by the actors, and the original uncensored version with profanity.

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
xtremebikerdude2 I found this show on Netflix and was skeptical to watch it at first, but after the first episode i was in love with the show. Due to its metal music and gory after tones mixed with a sense of comedy. There is also a romantic drama side to the show along with a bit of mystery. I also like that how in just about every show Todd's shirt is a different band shirt. So if your looking for a show with people exploding and being covered in blood with a side of perverted and dark humor, this could be the show for you. And, due to information I recently found out, it seems they are not doing a third season for this crazy comical adventure. This is because the the space channel decided not to renew the show. Hopefully another channel or company will pick up this great show.
arstark This show is by far one of the greatest original Canadian television programming! The musical episodes, the season finale the writers have written a terrific show and the characters are absolutely hilarious and well played. This show is a must see if you are looking for a witty look at teen angst, and sex jokes. Think Reaper but with more dick jokes and heavy metal. Think Buffy the Vampire slayer meets heavy metal, demons, sex, and drugs. Not recommended for the little ones, fantastic for teenagers. Chris Leavins character Atticus makes the show wonderful in general. If you enjoy heavy metal, sex jokes, and demons this show is perfect for you, don't fail to trying it out. You will not regret checking this how out! Props to all the actors, writers, lighters and everything that make this show absolutely wonderful!
sagei Kids routinely get splattered all over the scenery.Not even remotely correct, politically or otherwise.Lots of touchy subjects get equally trampled on.Drug use and general disregard for feelings/lives/limbs of others.Verdict ? Nailed It.Don't know if it's the cast, writing or some kink in my brain but can't stop watching. Shouldn't be entertaining or amusing but is.Very.Welcome change from mind numbingly vanilla fare on TV.Wish them well.Thank you.
doug1717 This series is entertaining, and very ugly. Strictly camp, it is based in a high school where 4 ugly misfits smoke marijuana and foil the machinations of a book of evil, which grants losers wishes that go awry. The stories are pretty good, they are funny but the acting talent is non existent. As this is basically a living cartoon series, that's OK. The special effects are poor and pathetic but they add to the amateurish charm of the show. The actors are all such unattractive people that they are often more horrific and repulsive than any of the monsters the book conjures. Essentially the show is a commercial for teen marijuana use. Ugly to watch but worth a chuckle. 4 out of 10.
