So evil -- run out showing disgust (9)
I believe the answer is:
revulsion
'disgust' is the definition.
(revulsion is a kind of disgust)
'so evil run out' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'so'+'evil'+'run'='soevilrun'
'soevilrun' anagrammed gives 'REVULSION'.
'showing' is the link.
(Another definition for revulsion that I've seen is " Disgust".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
