Spoilers! Awful movie. Storyline is everywhere. Evangeline has the worst luck in the entire world. Not only does she get brutally "killed" once but she also gets raped and almost killed again! No one calls the police when they find her basically dead in the woods. Seriously the group that finds her make it seem so normal to find a almost dead person in the woods.it would have been a descent movie but it's like they gave up. Even the makeup was laughable. I couldn't stop laughing. The killings are super quick and not wworth the time it takes to watch to find out what happens. I'll tell you, they all die within 30 seconds. Also, her sisters death plays no role in the movie. It's pointless

Very very dark - so be prepared for that. However it is original and stunning visually and the casting for the lead, well, she was perfect. The actress playing Evangeline looks like a normal girl, almost forgettable, but there is something more to her, a sad past that brings wisdom and yet youth that wants to let lose, fall in love, live life. She happens to have the worst night ever, first getting targeted by some bad fellow students and then by an even worse person, but supernatural things occur and some redemption albeit gory comes. I appreciate that there was a wonderful Japanese actress playing the good friend, thank you for not casting all white actors. And I love that this comes from a female horror director which there is hardly any of at all! If you liked this movie you would also like HoneyBee (also a female director) and It Follows and Jughead.

In a very, very bad mix! I see some positive reviews on Evangeline, so I'll try not to fully bash it, but in my honest opinion, this was down right bad!The camera work looks terrible and annoying. There is pretty much no acting to mention, no real dialogue, the plot is used and badly executed, the killings are a joke, the ending fits the movie. Will be one of my shorter comments cause I have pretty much nothing good to say about it, so I'll just give you a warning here.Stay away from this one. It fails on all levels!Cheers!

I think maybe the people who put this thing together wanted to tell the story of a woman scorned. I'm guessing that there was some sort of proverb, or old wives tale, possibly from an Asian culture, that fed into this idea, as well. I'm also guessing that the writer and director wanted us as viewers to travel emotionally with Evangeline throughout this film.I say these things, because they never actually made themselves apparent. If you've seen "The Crow" or "Jennifer's Body," skip this one. At least then, you won't have to watch those in the future and be reminded of this.However, if you want to take notes on what to avoid when making a movie, please, indulge. You'll learn how to create a movie containing one dimensional characters, no back story, plot lines that come out of no-where and disappear mid stream, and a general feeling of "what the...?" when the credits start rolling.Tip of the hat. Good day.
