All the Kind Strangers, also known as Evil in the Swamp, is a 1974 American television film directed by Burt Kennedy.

Jimmy Wheeler, a photojournalist driving through the rural United States while listening to folk country music spots a young boy walking.

Taking pity on Gilbert, Jimmy offers to give him a ride, a journey that proves ominous and forshadows danger.

Gilbert directs Jimmy, and the route is strange, leading to a river crossing and taking them well off the beaten path.

An adult woman named Carol is eventually discovered to be living there, the children's apparent "Mama", who behaves in a ditzy and somewhat clueless manner; when Peter's back is turned, however, she writes the word "HELP" in a pile of bleached white flour on the counter for Jimmy to see.
