    Watch out George Romero!!!!

    Really funny movie...It's really great to see a movie that combines the location you live in with your favorite movie genre...Cool effects, thanks to the Alahouzos bros, nice soundtrack, cool foul language (just enough to add to the fun and not the kind you wish to press the mute button for the rest of the movie) and characters that were picked ,probably, it tribute to all the zombie movies (soldier,etc...).The references to "Dawn of the dead" are pretty obvious but who could make a zombie movie with no reference to the master.A pretty nice movie to watch and have fun...All of you who are Greek ,it's a definite must see...But it's also a must see for all the cult-movies fans...Take care...Good work fellas!!

    Evil Greek...

    "To kako" is a Greek Comedy and Horror movie and I have to tell that it surprised me nicely. As Greek I have seen many Greek movies but the most of them were comedies and love movies, for the first time I saw a Greek horror movie and I liked it.

    In this movie we see three friends who found a cave in which a devil force was sleeping for a long time and these three friends awakened it. After that this devil force transforms the unsuspecting citizens of Athens into zombies, and we observe a group of people who are trying very hard to survive from these zombies.

    Finally I liked this movie because of the effects which are really nice for a Greek movie and in many occasions I am sure that you will laugh very much with them, the sounds of it are really cool and make a creepy environment.

    First Greek Splatter/Horror film

    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!

    For Us By Us

    When I first heard about the making of Greek zombie film, I must admit i felt really excited but a bit weary at the same time.

    Excited because this was going to be a first for my country, but a bit uncertain of what it could turn out like...I knew that the guys that made the film were working on a shoelace budget and I was worried that as proper "gore" is quite expensive to create, the whole film would be just people with ketchup on their faces walking around Athens.

    From the first moment watching this film you realize that it is made by people who love this kind of genre , for people who love this genre.

    Don't expect any hidden meanings when watching "evil". The film is here to entertain us and it succeeds in doing so big time!

    The acting is good, the effects are surprisingly convincing, and most of all it is really funny!

    Obviously the guys who made this film were inspired by Peter Jackson's "Braindead" . Trying to combine humor with horror is really difficult but they did a great job!

    I heard somewhere that the guys have currently plans for a new movie. I just cant wait! And guys if you are reading this... please please please let me be in it! I'll do it for free!

    Nothing too special, but a decent effort!

    "To Kako" (aka "Evil") was a film that I didn't expect much out of. A Greek zombie film seemed like a disaster waiting to happen, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it a noble effort despite it's flaws.

    The film does come off as fairly novice. It may be cultural boundaries, but I am also picky. Certain people around here call this film "trash", but I don't think that is fair. Compared to Romero's films, EVERY zombie film COULD be considered somewhere between second rate and "trash". This film is somewhere in between, but is worth a look if you like the genre.

    What I did like about the film what what they were able to do with an obviously limited budget. The acting is nothing above average but also not "horrible" as some have suggested. Given the budget, the prosthetics and other optical FX were passable. I was relieved to not see an assault of CGI animated gore. I found a couple of the effects laughable, but others to be much better.

    There are come continuity flaws, and some moments where the film drags, but the story is fairly well crafted, and the the gore-hounds in the audience will be happy at the amount of splatter and nastiness. Also, some of the dialog moves rather fast, and you may find yourself having to read a bit quicker than usual. But if you can get past these few limitations, you may find this to be an enjoyable movie. I would give it a 4 or 5 normally, but since it is a cut above the majority of non-Romero zombie films, I gave it a 6. You zombie buffs see it for yourselves and decide for yourselves.
