I didn't have any expectations when I watched this so I wasn't disappointed. I don't know anything about the production of this movie but it reminded me of some kind of a student film, as such I tend to be more forgiving.
All in all this was pretty bad, lacking pretty much every aspect of a good horror movie or thriller.
However there is one great aspect to this movie, the lead character is pretty damn funny. You know that type of character in a horror movie you just can't wait to see die. This guy brings it to a whole new level and really is the only reason I kept watching this movie.
That said there wasn't really any point to this movie and you could do worse and better at the video store.

Probably the absolute worst movie i have ever seen. I don't mean this simply in the way that many people say that lots of movies are the worst ever. I say this with complete and utter truth. The acting was horrible but even worse was the screenplay and storyline. My gosh, this film does not even pass Highschool level. I am completely serious. I watched it because i couldn't find any reviews about it, but damn. Save yourself the time you would waste on such an abomination. An absolute joke. How can the director have the guts to put his name on such a film?
Don't watch this.
Don't watch this.

You know the horror genre has some really great films. It is just a shame that so many idiots out there think they can just throw something together and make a good one and fail, giving the genre a bad name. You have got to be kidding me that anybody even reading the script(If there was one)thought this was going to be good. I'm sure they suckered some young people to be apart of their crew by promising meals and credit instead of any pay for their time. Wow, you gave them a garbage flick to put on their resume. That will really impress Robert Zemeckis or Michael Bay to hire them to do something better. We have 5 young people that all hate each other camping out for no real reason. I spent most of the time watching this trying to figure out why I was watching it until I skipped to the end. Really bad movie.
Anybody saying this movie is good is somebody who knows these people and feels sorry for them.

This was the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. I feel embarrassed for supporting them even by illegally downloading it.
The worst actors ever. And the ugliest, hands down. God, especially the two fugly wannabe dykes.
There are not ten lines of text that I could possibly provide to spell out how freaking terrible this movie really is. I watched it with a group of friends, and we all wanted to hang ourselves after the credits finally freaking rolled. The worst movie of all time. The fact that people can make careers out of being in movies as terrible as this truly depresses me. God, this movie sucked so bad.

Dear lord, if you want to see a movie with Terrible acting, disgusting plot, and the most common looking villain to date (not to mention the marijuana that looks like twigs they picked up off of the ground) then see this movie.
Wow I did not think a movie could get a lower budget until I seen the evil woods. The sheer thought that others paid well earned money to see this makes me sick! I am not one to normally post comments, but when I saw this movie I just couldn't resist.
At first glance I thought "well at least it will be good for a laugh." but no! everything about this movie is flawed, the plot, the dialog, the acting, the killer, and the scene of random nudity. The writer probably only wrote thirty minutes of dialog then decided to add "dude" and "man" to every second line. This is a movie best forgotten. So please do not waste time and money on this abomination.

This is one of the most horrible movies I've ever seen. Almost every aspect of the movie is terrible... you name it, they blow it. Bad writing, bad acting, bad direction, bad camera work (it's a face-hugger), bad lighting, bad special effects, bad sound effects... I could go on and on. And the viewer is forced to be painfully aware of the fact that the filmmakers are trying their HARDEST to stretch every scene to make the movie reach an acceptable full length run-time. Heck, you might actually be able to make this movie watchable if you took the footage and edited it down to 30 minutes. But at 83 minutes it's excruciating.
But here's why I ask if this is a conspiracy: What the F++K is the director of this piece of crap doing directing a movie starring Bruce Willis and Forest Whitaker? Has the world gone insane? Click on director Aaron Harvey's name and you will see that he is supposedly currently directing a movie called "Catch .44" with all sorts of well known actors. How did this happen? What the F++K is going on here? I'm dumbfounded. This must be a joke or a mistake.

Well, there you have it, this might very well be the worst movie I've ever seen. From beginning to end the acting is shockingly terrible and the characters almost so annoying it's almost impossible to stand. A very low budget film with many moments seeming to copy The Blair Witch Project exactly...except just way worse. Now, if you're going to make a really bad horror flick, you might as well get hot girls right, save it a little for the guys watching. These guys didn't care about that and the girls they got were probably the ugliest I've ever seen in a movie.
Between watching a hick jerk off under his overalls, and the obnoxious main character talking about farting while getting a blowjob I realized that this movie should be just a huge embarrassment to the makers.

I've watched a couple thousand horror/sci-fi movies over the years, so I have to laugh when I read reviews like many that are posted here......"worst movie ever" they say, but this is miles from that. I can GUARANTEE that these people bashing "Evil Woods" have NEVER seen "Alien 3000", "Carnivore" or the staggering "Night Train To Terror", which would leave rug burns on their chins, from their jaws dropping so hard to the floor! "Evil Woods" will not ever make it into the AFI 100, but it was well shot, well edited, had no continuity problems, had good sound recording (no hiss, or dogs barking or airplanes overhead), and BEST of all, these seemed like genuine teens....not hard-bodied, silicone-loaded supermodels, like most other cheap horror films. And if the lead guy seemed 'over the top' with his constant mouthing-off and sunglasses, I have to admit to you, that he WAS identical to my college roommate in my Freshman year.....I'm not kidding. There really are people like that out there. So take it easy, movie-bashers....a chili pepper is the hottest thing you've ever eaten, UNTIL you chomp on a habanero pepper. So get over it! Go watch "Godmonster of Indian Flats" and THEN tell me if Evil Woods is the "worst movie ever".....and to any cast or film-makers who read this.....you did very good for the budget. Don't listen to them.
I believe that this movie started out as a dare for the director to make a horrible movie. I'm not going to say that it's the worst one out there, I'm thankful of the omission of thirty minutes screen-time's driving at the start of the film. Considering the second half of the film only contains one word of dialog repeated ad infinitum, the point is balanced out.
It's not all bad, the plot is coherent! Mind you, any points it would gain for that are reduced fourfold for the plot also being simple and meteorically boring. We're talking a plot that can be verbosely, accurately, and lengthily described in under ten words. The boring factor on this movie could be considered radioactive. After re-watching this movie for this review, I hung out at the apartment complex's barbecue for awhile, everyone who was in their apartment during the time I watched this suffered from high levels of boredom as well.
I'd almost give this movie two stars for half of the actors not being incredibly bad, and nails-to-chalkboard annoying, if not for the other half of the cast filling that role to the T. My only theory of this movie not being conceptually designed to suck would be that the director wanted us to feel relief when the characters die, but the relief factor doesn't exist either, instead we're left with disgust at the movie.
I'll finish this review now because I've probably racked up a longer word count for this review than the script had in its entirety.

If you want to learn about film-making, you should watch this awful movie, you'll see horrible film-making and learn a lot.
For example, why in the holy hell was the camera up the nose of every actor? Every scene, every shot, the camera was all up in their grills.
And, hello...makeup?! Like other reviews have mentioned - these people are ugly! UG-LY! Some standard movie make-up would have helped at least a little bit, but its so obvious whoever maxed out their credit cards and blackmailed a distributor to get this film made and released had no idea what in the hell they were doing.
There is nudity in this film, but holy hell, trust me you probably don't want to see it. Ugly girls, one who looks like a butch lesbian. Now, the one that looked like a lesbian kind of had a nice body, but once her and her friend got naked, it really wasn't all that nice too look at. And the plot/acting/etc ... ??? Uh...yea, I just am not going to try to even understand how the hell were supposed to believe people act like this.

but this was terrible.
the acting wasn't even bad, it was horrible. the worst i've seen in a long time.
the plot was just as bad, if not worse. nothing happened that i didn't expect. more predictable than a sequel.
honestly, it's like this is the worst part of every horror movie ever made combined. i can't even think of a single redeeming quality within this movie, aside from the fact that i rented it and didn't go so far as to buy it.
movies like this are why we need a class for horror C movies, because in this case even B movie doesn't cut it.

I am a big movie fan.
I get through four or five a week, from romances to slasher films to Japanese cultural moveis that make me wonder if someone has injected me with crack they make so little sense.
I watch anything.
The most important thing to remember is I have watched some rubbish. And I mean bad.
Films so terrible they should stink when they come out of the box.
I have sat through them for two, three hours. Bizarre Russian films made in the Stalin era, offensive films, films with a budget of $9.99.
You get the picture right......
I lasted, according to my DVD timer, 14.33 seconds before I turned this off and quietly started weeping at just how bad it was.

Despite being such a terrible movie, the special effects/make up wasn't bad for a homeless person whose feet smell like the rotting corpse of a skunk. In other words, this movie sucked. "Homeless" Mike Jones is currently building a house, according to the latest rumor as perpetrated by him. His 60 year old girlfriend kicked him out of the house. Most likely due to his smelly feet and his hatred of taking a shower. I do not know how one man could possibly smell that horrible. But, "Homeless" Mike Jones has managed that. I do not know what stunk worse, this horrible movie or "Homeless" Mike Jones. Much love and respect to the other people who worked on this movie, knowing that he had to put up with that troglodyte.

It's always the worst movies they've ever seen. How many movies have they watched besides Lethal Weapon 1,2,3 and 4 ? I swear to God, they haven't watched Ax'em, Sorority Sister Slaughter or Comatose.
This wasn't so terrible, except for the fact that the killings do not start until very late in the movie. But it leaves room for some atmosphere and style by a promising director. I was rarely THAT relieved when one of the leads, an ultra-annoying misogynist, pig of a 30-year old teen got his demise first. Oh God, I so wanted him to die. Pretty much all characters in this movie deserve to die, including the whining final girl. Had I been her (very cute, by the way) boyfriend, I would have axed her myself. Slow, but interesting.

Watch the movie Last night, and wish i had not watched it at all it was so bad i felt like just turning it off, but once i start watching something i normally have to watch it until the end.
The acting Is terrible especially from the the actor who plays john, he is just a pain, The story also is not great your usual horror theme revenge movie involving collage teens out drinking in the woods with no cell phones or any way of contacting the outside world!!, meaning other people
all and all not worth seeing!!!.
And its Set in the woods miles form nowhere.

Well I've finally seen it...
I'm sure every horror fan out there has at least heard of it, and let me just tell you: "It lives up to it's hype!"
Yes, it is quite possibly the worst "Released" film that I have ever seen, but then again it was "Released"... By "Lions Gate" none the less! For this reason alone, I must give "The Evil Woods" a 3 star rating because as God is my witness, I have no idea how they did it... Cudos to director Aaron Harvey and his posse of incompetent (Would-Be) film makers on a job well executed. This eh...film should be an inspiration to all you kids out there who one day dream of becoming a film director. It is possible, and dreams do come true! Just borrow Dad's camcorder, gather your friends, head down to the local forest preserve and yell "Action!" Make sure one of your Buddies has a foul mouth, and be sure that at least two of the neighborhood girls would be willing to show their breasts and you will have yourself a MOVIE. You can use the high school visual arts department for editing purposes, and that nerdy kid down the street will make copies on DVD if you get him tickets to the "Star Wars" convention. Last but certainly not least... Make sure someone in the family knows someone at "Lions Gate Films"... Before you know it, you will be working on your "Second" feature film, hot on the heels of your first mega-hit...
Sounds funny huh? But these guys did it and I watched it... Rock on Spielberg!!!
