Running With the Devil: The Story of John McAfee (2020)

John McAfee, the founder of the $14 billion McAfee antivirus software company, is at the center of this true crime tale.

The documentary dives into the mind-boggling events that unfolded after McAfee was accused of murdering his next-door neighbor, Gregory Faull, in Belize.

In 2012, Faull was found dead in his beachside home, a single gunshot wound to the head. John McAfee, despite maintaining his innocence, became the prime suspect.

Rather than cooperating with the police, he chose to go on the run, convinced that he was being hunted by multiple enemies, including drug cartels and even the government.

His eccentric behavior during this time included adopting various disguises and feigning disabilities to avoid detection. He traveled the world, living mostly on a boat, while paying off individuals to elude capture.

The documentary sheds light on McAfee’s wild years as a fugitive, revealing raw and revealing footage.

It explores his rise as the founder of the antivirus software company, his subsequent descent into a life of drugs and excess, and the dramatic turn of events that led to his flight from justice.

Along the way, we meet the women in his life, including former girlfriend Sam Herrera and later his wife, Janice Dyson.

Running With The Devil uncovers the layers of McAfee’s complex existence, leaving viewers with questions about morality, power, and the lengths one will go to escape the consequences of their actions
