The Best Evil Government Movies

How do you create an evil government? You can either take a page out of the playbooks of past dictatorships like in Nazi Germany or Communist Russia, or take the current American or British model and raise the nationalism to the maximum setting. An evil government often arises in a time of crisis, offering up a scapegoat or an extremist solution. The citizens desperate for a quick fix willingly vote their party into power and give them carte blanche authority. Once in office, it's important for them to stay in office, and that means crushing any form of dissent in the population. This can be done through an aggressive propaganda campaign that keeps the people dumb and blissfully happy, or by limiting resources and maintaining a gap between the classes, where the rich live in luxury and the poor are too busy surviving day to day to fight back.
