Rating: 7 out of 10
Set just minutes after the ending of the first installment, ‘To Kako: Evil’; To Kako - Evil in the Time of Heroes is a Greek zombie movie directed by Yorgos Noussias, and it’s completely insane. It begins with a group of warriors in ancient Greece, sitting around a camp fire telling jokes (specifically Mrs. Wallace’s ‘Ketchup’ joke from Pulp Fiction – first of about a dozen Tarantino references) before being attacked by bloody zombies. Spin forward two thousand years and we’re in modern Athens and the same thing is going on. Our heroes from the first film are still fleeing the zombie hordes and seeking shelter at the cook’s house, along with a rag tag bunch of survivors including someone we had been led to believe had died in the first film.

[Editor's note: Special thanks to Joseph Proimakis of Movies for the Masses for the following review]
Starting off with an impressive opening sequence, Evil in the Time of Heroes will catch Greek speakers off guard by employing Ancient Greek dialogue, but then again, the film’s greatest catch, is the premise that the Evil that spread over modern day Athens three days ago (or 5 years ago, in the viewers’ timeline, when the original film wowed local audiences and critics alike) had its roots in ancient times and made its first appearance 2,800 years ago.
Hopes of well-tanned hunks prancing around in sandals, capes and underwear chopping undead heads off of undead bodies, are quickly put to rest, though, as the ancient-time version of the story proves to be an under-used subplot, that only comes to surface in time to remind you that there’s a better story there,...
