Evil Things (in a nut shell)...


OMG OMG, the van is following us...!!

OMG OMG, the horror, he's back...

OH NO, there he is AGAIN...

God help us, now my aunt is knocking on the door...

Is that the phone?! Did it just ring again?! Oh no, someone help us, the phone is ringing...and nobody said anything when I answered it...

Now we're lost in the woods...why oh why did we even go this far into the woods if we didn't know our way...?? Let's scream and yell at each other for a while in the cold darkness.

EEEK!! Someone stepped on a tree branch...everyone RUN!!!

WTF, OMG...someone knocked on the door, and they left a rectangular object that appears to be an outdated technologically obsolete video recording/viewing object from the last decade...somebody find a viewing device that will allow us to watch this thing...

Oh no, how frightening...they were in the house. Is that the cake?! OMG IS THAT THE CAKE...with a FORK...on a PLATE??!! GASP, they videotaped us sleeping!! How could they (squealing and sobbing), HOW COULD THEY?! I can't watch this anymore, it's too horrible...they videotaped the cake...!!

Lets leave...where's the car?! How did not one of the 5 of us not notice our car being stolen...?!

Back inside everyone, but only one of us should grab a knife...I'll keep the camera...

OH NOOOOOO...they cut off the lights...and nobody has a cell phone signal...

Hey I got a signal...I'll call some random number and squeal and cry and sob and mumble unrecognizable words so the nobody will understand a GD thing I'm saying...

Hey guys did you see (door slams) EEEKKKK!! There's another human in the room with me...if only I knew how to stab someone with this knife I'm holding...

Everyone, we HAFTA leave...we HAFTA. You hold the camera while I hold the flash light and lead us outside...let's walk past the kitchen where all the knives are...and don't pick up any objects to use as a weapon, just hold the camera and keep taping...OH NO RUUUNNNN, there's another human out here!!

I dropped the camera so now I'll just scream and scream and scream some more...

(End credits) I outsmarted the "Evil Things" by hiding behind a couch. They'll never find me here. But just in case, I'm gonna stumble through the house in the pitch dark while whimpering and squealing and hopefully I'll make it to the door where...EEEKKKKK!!

You left out the hour of random bullsh*t where they supposedly "build" to the scary parts, which aren't really that scary, since they just dial everything to 11 and start shrieking for not much reason. There's what, SIX of them? Stand your ground pussies.

There's what, SIX of them?


FIVE of them. Good attention to detail there, emu<a bunch of random numbers>.

You got it! I felt like I just watched the movie again in 60 seconds (and without all the boring bs)!

Best movie breakdown ever.

reply

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about VHS part.
Who would send vhs tape in 2009, and it's just big coincidence that group had working VHS player in their home.

If some random killer send me vhs tape to intimidate me I would probably be like "sorry dude, my vhs broke about 10 years ago and I can't find anyone to fix it. Send DVD please or use youtube. Later"

reply

It was Aunt Gail's house and a big one at that. She's an older woman so it's most probable that she would still have a VHS player that works.

This was way better than the movie. I laughed my ass off

Who was the killer? Hell how did they die

reply

how did they die


The opening title card shows that the killer mailed his edited tape to the FBI on 03/13/2009. It would have made no sense for the perp to incriminate himself for murder by showing himself actually killing the victims. Since the victims were still "missing persons" to the FBI, perhaps he just wanted them to be identified anonymously.

No, no.. we won't write down the Van's license plate number and tell the cops it's following us

reply

At 00:04:18 you can see the van's license plate as the van pulls to the side of the road right in front of them. Given the unusually large and expensive camera Leo used, the license plate should have been easy to see if he took the time to replay it anytime afterwards.
