On this day, November 11, 1988, Evil Angels (also known as A Cry in the Dark) premiered in theaters, directed by Fred Schepisi and starring Meryl Streep and Sam Neill. Based on the true story of Lindy Chamberlain, the film follows the harrowing events surrounding the death of her baby in the Australian Outback and the infamous line, “The dingo ate my baby.” Despite its powerful performances, particularly Streep’s, Evil Angels had a modest box office return, earning $6.9 million against a $15 million budget.
