Evil (2006)

Memorable, crazy movie

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

How sad is this?

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

It's the first Greek attempt to make a splatter film. Just for that it deserves a credit and an overlook for it's low budget. But believe me this doesn't mean that this movie cannot be compared to Hollywood zombie movies because they couldn't afford tanks, mansions and 1000 zombies. This movie is exactly what a zombie movie has to be. The effects are awesome, and not only for the Greek standards. The zombies are so believable, just for an example a taxi driver happened to pass with his car in some of the "zombie's" takes and started running with his car. The directing is a bit strange but stunning, your eyes are stuck in the screen not to miss anything. The actors are amateurs but play their roles very well and were a bit creepy in some of the scenes when they began to act crazy! I give an 10 for a Greek movie and an 8 for a film not to be judged by it's country. You must see it, it's somehow different for any zombie you have seen so far and it won't disappoint you! I'm really looking forward for "To Kako 2".p.s. The ending is just NOT a Hollywood one, but i don't want to spoil it, i loved it though!

The only reason this got made was because the businessmen behind it (I refuse to call them film-makers)knew they could secure a DVD deal in the States. They are nothing more than Greek Uwe Bolls.It's the worst-directed, worst-scripted, worst-acted, worst-lit, worst-scored movie I've ever seen. It's hackneyed, nonsensical and features some of the most obnoxious characters ever.I would call it cinematic vomit but I feel uneasy to have the word cinematic associated with this turd, even under this context.Since the minimum length for comments is 10 lines of text, all I can add is this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks,this stinks.

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!!!!

Not the best zombie movie ever (a few characters do things a bit too stupid, not that that is unheard of in the zombie genre), but a damned fine addition to the canon. The characters are likable, and it's not always obvious who's going to turn into zombie chow and when. Most importantly, you grow to empathize with the characters -- this isn't just some big dumb video game. And the ending shot is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in one of these movies. I'm sure there are some Greek nuances I'm missing, and maybe even cultural in-jokes, but even without that it was a very enjoyable film. It's not as much a comedy as some seem to claim, but there are humorous moments, most of them involving the slimy yet heroic taxi driver character. But this is less like Return of the Living Dead than Dawn of the Dead 2004, where some moments of levity break up lots of tension. The origin of the zombie plague seems a bit odd, but then again the origins of these things are never the real point of the movies, are they?
