Evil Town is a 1987 American horror film produced by William D. Sklar and Peter S. Traynor, and starring James Keach, Dean Jagger, Robert Walker, Michele Marsh and Lynda Wiesmeier. It is notable for its lengthy and troubled production, which began in 1973 and lasted until 1985, under four different directors: Curtis Hanson (credited as 'Edward Collins'), Mardi Rustam, Larry Spiegel and Traynor. Producer Peter S. Traynor was convicted of fraud related to the film's financing in 1981, six years before its eventual release. This was also the final film for Dean Jagger.
