The Evil That Men Do 1984

In the blistering heat of Suriname, Clement Molloch, infamously known as The Doctor, takes brutal vengeance on journalist Jorge Hidalgo by subjecting him to a horrifying electric torture session—an event witnessed by officials complicit in his crimes. Meanwhile, in the serene backdrop of the Cayman Islands, Holland, a retired hitman, reluctantly steps back into a world of violence after learning of Jorge’s devastating fate. His resolve is further solidified by the agonizing accounts of Molloch’s victims across the globe, including those from Chile and Asia.

As he prepares for his intense mission, Holland adopts a disguise, masquerading as a family man on vacation. He is accompanied by Jorge’s widow, Rhiana, and her child, Sarah, and they travel to Guatemala, where Molloch operates. Their adventure begins when they meet Max Ortiz, a reliable ally who introduces them to a disreputable cockfighting ring frequented by The Doctor. However, they are followed by a lurking figure that appears to be disabled, but Holland’s instincts sense danger before it strikes.

Later, Max leads them to The Doctor’s fortified compound, providing Holland with a chance to assess the security that could be critical later. Together, Holland and Rhiana wander into town to gather crucial intelligence, with Holland vigilantly protecting her. When a local thug harasses Rhiana, Holland reacts violently, dispatching the assailant in a dramatic confrontation that captures the attention of another of Molloch’s henchmen.

As tensions mount, Holland and Rhiana devise a plan to ensnare this henchman by pretending to be thrill-seekers. They lure him to their hotel room, where Holland eliminates him with calculated precision. Appalled by her husband’s ruthless methods, Rhiana initially urges a retreat from the country, but her desire to confront The Doctor ultimately prevails.

In a bold move, Holland decides to draw The Doctor out by kidnapping his sister, Claire. He sneaks into her hotel room, waiting for her return, only to find her arriving with a female lover. As they share an intimate moment, Holland hides under the bed and, after their exit, he captures a male henchman who enters the room to roll a joint. He swiftly seizes Claire, causing chaos by hanging the thug from a fire hose, enabling their escape.

They take refuge at Max’s ranch, where Holland warns his friend to hide while he plots the next phase to eliminate Molloch. Yet, unbeknownst to Holland, his adversaries are tightening their grip. Molloch’s treacherous actions lead to Max’s capture and cruel interrogation, resulting in the revealing of Holland’s location. In a hurried escape, Holland conceals Claire in the trunk of a car and flees with Rhiana, leaving destruction in their wake.

The corrupt US ambassador, bribed by Molloch, sends hitmen after them. After a tense game of chase and a deadly shootout, their pursuers are vanquished, but not before Claire succumbs to her grim confinement. Holland and Rhiana commandeer a farmer’s truck, using it as a shield against their relentless pursuers as they arrive in the village of Magdalena.

Seeking refuge, they encounter a benevolent cafe owner who offers them a phone, but their respite is fleeting as they are confronted once more by the ambassador and a merciless gunman, both intent on revenge. Holland skillfully neutralizes both threats before confronting Molloch directly, demanding that he retrieves Claire from an abandoned mine.

Upon reaching the mine, they encounter a group of disfigured men tirelessly digging for opals amidst the debris. Initially resistant to their presence, these men eventually agree to guide them away from danger as Molloch draws near. In a shocking turn, Molloch reveals that he has taken Sarah hostage. In a moment of panic, Holland uses a recording of her voice as a diversion, luring Molloch into a trap. The miners, enraged by Molloch’s past transgressions, turn on him with unrelenting force, leading to his swift demise.

With the chaos behind them, Holland, Rhiana, and Sarah make their way back to the safety of Holland’s island sanctuary in the Cayman Islands, finally ending their harrowing ordeal.
