In modern horror, a common trend sees filmmakers incorporating a 70s style amidst difficult thematic material. Everyone Will Burn (Y todos arderán), directed by David Hebrero, is an example of this, but the film relies too much on picturesque cinematography and its own unique style. While these aspects can help a film achieve greatness, they are not enough to keep an audience engaged for over 2 hours. Everyone Will Burn is a supernatural epic horror film that starts with an intriguing premise but grows more convoluted as it goes on. The film begins as an old-school horror flick but devolves into a fantasy spectacle, featuring a climax reminiscent of an Avengers film but without rhyme or reason. Everyone Will Burn is a fairly memorable high-concept horror film, but the confusing script could have used some significant tightening.
