Surviving Evil

At the end of the movie, the beam with the rope breaks so the rope falls in the hole, but we can see that the rope is back and attached a few seconds after.

Opened well and for a minute or two I thought…yep this is going to be an interesting and different type of film after a quick spooky intro..

The show is awesome, the Host sounds like she is struggling reading the script, robot like. You get into the show and she somewhat ruins that feeling.

Once again, various characters face a mystery the audience is already fully aware of the resolution of, prompting another movie that delivers little suspense or mystery.The monsters are shapeshifters, capable of transforming into any creature, which in a jungle setting like this would provide excellent paranoia fuel.

I'm with you on your review. I didn't understand the ending, it was vague.

Set on the remote Mayaman Island in the Philippines, comes the story of six documentary filmmakers, who plan to spend six days shooting a survival special until they find out the island they perceived as uninhabited, reveals to have a Philippine folklore creature, the Aswang, lusting for their blood. The plot itself is intriguing.

A small crew arrive at an island in the Philippines to begin shooting a documentary about a tribe that lives on the island but little do they know that something else also lives on the island, ancient creatures with a thirst for blood.This UK/South African co production was written and directed by Terence Daw and it is an exceptional little monster movie boasting a well fleshed out storyline, the performances by Billy Zane (BLOODRAYNE), Natalie Mendoza (THE DESCENT) and Colin Moss (NUMBER 10) are great as well as the performances from the supporting cast, the creature design is one of the better designs I've seen in recent low budget films and the director shows a big degree of professionalism.

I'm a fan of Billy Zane, in fact I'd go as far as to say I'm a big fan of his so it always pains me to see him in movies like this. The man has the acting chops and natural comedic timing so should be gracing our screens in high budget efforts not things like this.

Surviving Evil is set on Mayaman Island in the Philippines where a crew of TV documentary makers land, there to make an episode of Surviving the Wild with Sebastian 'Seb' Beazley (Billy Zane) as the adventurer host. Local guide Joey (Joel Torre) speaks of the legendary Aswang creatures of myth supposedly born out of the horrors of the Spanish invasion centuries ago but surely mythological Vampire like shape-changing creatures can't exist in reality?

Terrence Daw directs this highly original, pulse-pounding horror adventure film that features some exotic location shooting as well as a superb script. The characters are well developed and as the story progresses we come to actually care about the fate of these people.
