Evil's City (2005)

Best movie of this year hands down!

Touches You

Just what I expected

A Disappointing Continuation

I don't know why I keep trying these movies at the video store. The cover and story are intriguing, and I am irrevocably drawn to it in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, this one will be different than the mountains of B schlock that I've seen in the past. But alas, it just never happens.This is one more on the pile of practically worthless movies I've seen that have a great idea, but extremely poor execution. I am a horror fan, and love the premise of ghosts, haunted towns, and other supernatural elements in a movie when handled well. The acting from the first frame was unconvincing and amateur, and proceeded throughout. Suspense was typically minimal and most of the "horror" moments were handled very sloppily. I will never grasp how such crap can manage to get funded. The producer(s) must take out a second mortgage or something else dire, and then roll the dice and hope that enough schmucks will shell out their hard earned cash to gobble up their vile stew. Hey, Blair Witch sucked and it made money, right? I must digress a moment and say that there were a few decent scare moments here and there, maybe one good gore bit to keep it from being a complete waste of one and a half hours of my life. It was also interesting to see a host of a show I enjoy called "Cities of the Underworld" on the History Channel have a bit part here. But these fleeting moments do not make the experience worthwhile. If you must submit yourself to this "film," and I use the term loosely, then get it for $0.50 at Family Video. Or just forget it and look for something that's bound to be better.

There is nothing worse than a movie everybody in it knows will suck. No one acts, no one writes anything decent in the script, the sounds are bad, the editing is bad, the camera work is bad. This film is just bad. Forget about horror. There is nothing horrorful about it, only the horrible production that one can hardly name a movie.Let me emphasize this: this is so bad, you can't even laugh at it. There are no ridiculous scenes, because they are too bad to actually laugh at them. This will never be a cult movie, nor will it be something taken seriously by anyone. The budget is so low, that film students wouldn't touch it, so i guess a "film company" tried to sell this piece of crap as a video rental money maker.Horrible! Awful! And average in its awfulness.

Although I gave this movie a 1 because the director put in the horror Genre I couldn't help but laugh at the awful acting the saddest most hilarious part about this movie is that the best actors were the crazy Hillbillies that beat the hell out of Harding speaking harding the other characters had some sort of hatred for this man because if you pay attention the three phrases you hear most in the movie are "Harding your an a**hole" "Hey Harding F*ck you" "Harding acts like a 5 year old" The movie also has randomly disappearing characters,Name Changes,obvious picture cropping,misleading plot,awful sounds,windows that break but actually are just copy and pasted triangles flying through the air well anyway if you watch this you will be sure to laugh its a riot trust me!

well...so the comments here before i watched the film..so sort of knew what to expect. But somehow i HAD to watch the whole thing, even though it was cheesy...cliché...predictable...but addictive.As cabbagetown says it does pick up towards the end..shame the rest of the film wasn't as good as that!! It did have a good basic idea..but the writer/director failed miserably in getting that good basis onto the 'big screen' well OK 'small screen'!The dialogue and acting were very wooden for the majority of the film..but towards the end the fact that there was more action helped. Guess they filmed this section last ( i hope they did otherwise it means the acting got worse :S)Gave it 5 purely on how addictive it was..if it hadn't have been it would have been about a 3
