Evil Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Paul Magne Haakonsen I didn't really expect much from this movie, being a Greek zombie movie and all, but my prejudice was quickly put to shame. "Evil" (or "To Kako") turned out to be somewhat of a surprise.Think a mixture of "28 Days Later" and Peter Jackson's "Dead Alive" (aka "Braindead"), then you sort of have the thing that is "Evil".Personally, I am not keen on zombies that are super agile and running around, as they are in this movie. That being said, then the director of this movie managed to uphold a very "28 Days Later" feeling all throughout the entire movie, and for that, thumbs up.There was a good amount of gore in the movie as well, though the movie was fairly low-budget, they managed to make the effects look nice and realistic enough. And again, thumbs up on that.However, one thing that didn't really sit well with me was the characters in the movie. They weren't really given much space to unfold or develop. And as such, they were fairly two-dimensional. There were some attempts thrown in at being funny, particularly from the Argyris guy, whether or not that is good, is a personal preference, I, however, just didn't find the forced humor at place in the movie.Now, this movie is of course a mile and a stone away from being up to most Hollywood productions, but still, if you are a zombie aficionado, there is some good stuff here and good entertainment, and "Evil" should - and deserves - a place in the movie collection of any zombie aficionado.So you might wonder why I am only rating "Evil" a 5 out of 10 rating. Well, simply because I don't find agile, running zombies particularly enjoyable, and also because of the misplaced attempts of humor in the movie. "Evil" has a lot to offer, but with some adjustments, it could have been so much more. But with "Evil", Greece has put itself on the world map of the zombie infection.On a closing note, then the ending of the movie was just priceless. It was the best part of the entire movie. And what a way to leave the audience hanging. Several rotting thumbs up for the bold ending of the movie.
veo We all hate the Hollywood remakes of foreign movies, like {REC) / Quarantine, Ju-on / The Grudge, Ringu / Ring, Nattevagten / Nightwatch etc... But where's the Hollywood remake when you need one?! Because To Kako, or Evil, is exactly the kind of movie that might have been good given more money, better script based on the original one, (better) actors and so on. The original script is very well-intended, the author really likes zombie movies, but his literary vein endures only for the first half of the film; after that, it seems the writer couldn't wait for the film to end so he threw in some fast jokes and zombie shooting and that was that. There are some good tricks, some good ideas, few very good scenes, the fight looks bad but at least they tried to think, if not choreograph, every move. The movie makers also obey the rules, even the rule that says every rule must be broken. For example, Yorgos Noussias' zombies don't die exclusively by brain destroying, but can also be killed by stabbing in the chest – at least if the scene (one of the zombie that was put to sleep in the restaurant scene) was intentional. Of course, To Kako is a film exclusively for die hard zombie fans (pun pretty much intended). Only we can watch such cheap productions, achingly bad acting, stupid character motivations, dialogs ripped off from another 100 movies, artificial conflicts, fake fight scenes, horribly lighting, goofs (like the blood spurting out from a zombie cut in two – but spurting out and upwards from the low half – as the heart was of course in the upper half!), confusing editing at times... and I won't continue the list, because, despite all those shortcomings, I still liked the movie. To Kako is pretty much a kind of The Elephant Man (but the character, not the film): inside there's a great person, but you hate the way he looks. It's hard to look at him, but you ignore his appearance because you know down there there's good soul. As for the horror factor, yes, it exists, although achieved more by editing (the sudden bursts of the zombies…) and sound, which is the easy way to do it. Nevertheless, this film had one thing that was more scary and horrific than any other; it really made my hair rise and my teeth ache… and I'm talking about the music. The score was absolutely idiot, ruined many scenes and also killed any attempt to disbelief suspension. On the other hand, one of the best thing in this movie is its humor. I mean not in the sense that it has many jokes or wise cracking, but there is one of the funniest (or rather hysterical!) moments I have seen in zombie flicks – the one involving Argyris and the zombie who interrupted his fun. Oh, and speaking about humor… or maybe goofs?... or maybe genre transgressing?... anyway… I didn't get the scene at 00:37:27, with Argyris hiding behind a, like, 6 inch thick tree… Was it some attempt to put some cartoon fun in a zombie movie?... Hard to say! Finally, the actors. As I still liked this film, I will only add that here at IMDb it's mentioned a sequel will come out next year, starring Billy Zane. Let me just say Mr. Zane is going to be the Dustin Hoffman of the cast. Not a word more!
Chipsmannen When you see this movie in the store or hear someone talking about it, it may seem to be a really crappy movie, but it isn't. Evil must the one of the greater of it's kind. It contained ultra-violent scenes which was both fun and awesome! I highly recommend it. It's like Braindead, but only with a lot more zombies! Some scenes icluded humor to which made this movie pure genius. I can't believe this movie has got this kind of rating! It deserves at least 8.0! When you watch this movie, do not, I repeat, do not judge the low budget effects and the bad picture. By doing that you will ruin the entire movie. If you have the thirst for gore and splatter movies, then watch EVIL!
sharkattack1978 I saw this film in blockbuster in the UK and was a bit intrigued by the cartooned cover. I knew that this film was about zombies and I LOVE ZOMBIE FILMS. Although i wasn't sure how good it was (i didn't want to see another cheap and very nasty (and not in a good way) crappy zombie horror so it was at least a couple of weeks after i saw the trailer and read the user reviews on here that i finally took a proper look at it. Although the film is from Greece, it did put me off a tiny bit but then i realised that i have other horrors in my collection that are Japanese and other foreign languages that were pretty damn good, so what the hell i rented it. I'm glad i did, yeah i'm very glad i did. I was very happy with what i saw. Plenty of zombie deaths in gory fashion. Tons of blood and guts. This was better than Dawn of the dead remake. I also loved the humour in it too. The characters were funny and also great at kicking zombie ass. The scene in the diner was well worth getting the DVD for. You'll see if you watch it. I also loved the imaginative ways that they butchered the undead. Lots of zombies die in this movie in very gruesome fashion.Another good thing about this film was the shock ending, it's refreshing to see a proper horror ending than the hero walks off into the sunset, makes it more believable unlike Hollywood.If they do make a sequel. i'll definitely watch it as this one was great. A good laugh and a good gore-fest too. It's good to see that zombie films are making a comeback like this. balls to the wall action gore-fest. Word of advice if you do want to watch this film and you get the DVD, DON'T LOOK AT THE CHAPTER LIST cause it gives away the ending. Just sit back, crack open a beer and enjoy the fun movie of EVIL. Look out Hollywood they coming to get you!!!!
