As an older person new to the found footage genre, I really appreciated this film for its courage and originality. If you give it a wide berth and watch it on it's own terms, there are plenty of chills to keep you scared enough to keep the house lights burning whilst you slowly cower in your favourite corner of the living room.The four protagonists aren't terribly smart or even likeable, but that's keeping in character with the story, they aren't supposed to be. The last hour of the film doesn't have much bearing on what's gone on before, but that's okay if you're willing to go along for the ride. The surprises in these films at risk of becoming cliches such as the camp fire expositions with strange men out of nowhere, (see Wolf Creeek) work somehow and keep you interested in what's going to happen next.The last 30 minutes or so are kind of mind blowing, but the surprise factor is exciting and well executed, that I want for a change, to point out the positive aspects of Evidence, and downplay it's shortcomings. It was probably made on a shoestring by genre enthusiasts on their own time and money which is how the genre began in the first place, and I'm grateful for their efforts.

Had I known that this was one of those mockumentary type movies with unfathomably bad camera-work, then I would never had wasted $2 on buying the DVD. And I will go as far as saying that the movie isn't even worth the disc it is pressed on.The storyline is just your typical found footage type; a group of people are filming a documentary when they find themselves in deep trouble.After having suffered through 79 minutes of unbelievably bad camera-work, I can say that this movie was bad on every level and every aspect. And it is not clear what the event actually was. Zombies? Disease? I don't know, and after the movie ended, I can't say that I really cared about what it actually was.The acting in the movie was adequate, but that did nothing to salvage this awful train wreck of a movie.As with all movies in this bad found footage genre, then the camera-work was all over the place. And that is really something that doesn't go well with me at all. If I pay money for a movie, then I expect a proper production, and not just getting something that I could make myself with my own digital video camera.I suppose that some evidence is better left unearthed, unheard of and unseen, and "Evidence" is definitely all that.

yes, many reviews here already stated: this movie takes a really surprising turn. i mean, before that it is still pretty creepy with those ominous things stalking them. who wouldn't be freaked out by that? well, the camera guy as it seems. half of the protagonists is, sadly, totally horrible people. they just pi*s each other off and you actually kinda hope something happens to them. the girls are more fun. but they scream and whine waaaay too much in my opinion, though that might be due to the localisation (i watched this in German). so overall the movie delivers a great chill, then an unexpected plot twist and while stuff happens you always think "how the hell might that situation turn out now?" and on a side note: why do people always need to refer to the blair witch project? this movie has nothing to do with it, it just happens to be the same genre. when i watch an action movie i don't always refer to james bond. there will always be similarities because of genre but thats it.

I seriously hope the makers of this film never get to go behind a camera again. Ever. There have been some shockers in the FF genre but this one wins the prize as the biggest pile of elephant dung ever made. It is a shame as the film starts reasonably promisingly, however by the time anything actually happens you really want to see the characters die, especially the one who just screams 'f--- you!!! No one cares about your documentary' every time he opens his mouth. The last twenty minutes are so unclear and vague it seems the director and writer had just lost all interest in the film by then....The only saving grace is the stunning Abigail Richie and the rather gratuitous close ups of her backside and breasts as she runs all over the place.I noticed with dismay on the film's Wiki page that a prequel AND a sequel are planned. I hope these never happen. I actually wonder who approved this film for a commercial release. I hope he lost his job for allowing this horrible mess to infest the world of film. There are no real saving graces here apart from the aforementioned Ms Richie. The acting is dire on the whole, the script written by a 5 year old, the story a jumbled mess as is the cinematography.
