kmylwnas The first movie was really good. Even though the special effects were terrible, it had everything a good Zom-B-Movie needed: action, fun lines, great characters.Having seen the trailer of this sequel and understanding a few things about the storyline, also knowing that they had a better budget this time (having Billy Zein sure wasn't for free) left me with huge expectations on this one. Too bad they were never met.The idea was cool but the script was terrible. Bad lines, mostly cursing whenever they could not find a good line to use. Some of the acting was still bad, I liked the character of the father of the taxi driver though. Fun Greek dude. The punk could be a good additional character, however he was nothing but a regular boring character with punk clothing and appearance.I had to pause the movie multiple times for a break though as it had large moments where it was uninteresting (or should I say boring?) The action was definitely missing. Lame love stories and chasing bad guys instead of zombies to a post apocalyptic Athens...The special effects were somehow improved but I was still disappointed from the zombie killings. No inspiration, they were just penetrating the zombie heads with everything you can imagine: sticks, bones, cut off hands, shoes whatever!! Seriously guys, I know its a fiction movie, but how could anyone pierce a scull with minimum effort and a 'weapon' like that? I'm surprised they did not kill any zombies by cutting open their heads by hitting them with a raw egg or something...Overall, it seems to me like if the script was written overnight and the movie shot within 2 days (but it wasn't!)

Coventry This is splatter/comedy for a very select audience, with a lot of inside jokes and tastelessly absurd gore, but very little substance and style. This is a sequel to "Evil", a zero-budgeted amateur zombie movie that came out in 2005 and unexpectedly grew out to become a modest cult hit. The budget for the sequel was much higher, but apparently all the cast members were volunteers. "Evil in the Time of Heroes" implements a bizarre and unappealing narrative structure that constantly jumps back and forth between Athens in ancient times and present day. In both eras, the place is infested with zombies and only a small handful of people (courageous warriors in the past and random losers in the present) remain and battle for survival. Out of nowhere Billy Zane ("Titanic", "Dead Calm") shows up as some kind of prophet slash Jedi Master and he shepherds the pack of undisciplined survivors in their fight against the living dead. How about that? Billy Zane speaks Greek and appears in a crap horror movie for free? The make-up effects are often splendid and the film contains numerous very creative killings sequences, but the lack of subject matter and character development quickly gets on your nerves. The whole thing is hectic, very incoherent and desperately tries to appeal to the comic book fanatics. This is fun & relaxing for about ten minutes, but what remains is a completely immature and easily forgettable "just- another-zombie-comedy"

Lora Since it's the very second zombie film in Greece and it is better than the first, it makes it the best Greek zombie movie! LOL!Seriously now, although the script may seem far fetched at occasions, the characters are all fun, the humor is typical Greek (thus it may not be appreciated by foreign audiences)and there are some great scenes and ideas. It's a splatter movie, so be prepared for many gory/funny scenes. The best part for me was they included ancient Athens. It's one of the few movies that you can hear ancient Greek on the cinema and you can admire the Acropolis on its early days.If you have watched the first movie, keep in mind its budget was 10.000 euro and the second one's is 100.000 euro.

opeth-548-780681 This is by far one of the worst movies i have ever seen. The plot is virtually non-existent. I don't know what the producers were thinking about this movie. Zombies in modern and ancient Athens??Billy Zane playing a WoWish rogue-alike prophet??It looked like a cheap comedy version of "dawn of the dead" combined with "300" with the stupidest scenario ever.Characters are weak, lead acting sucks and the visual effects are not nearly as "hollywoodish" as the producers would like them to be. The only scene to laugh is the Tsimitselis scene and two or more others in the whole movie. Bottom line, i wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Complete waste of money!
