Evil Eye (2022) Hey what's up guys. Today
I'll show you a supernatural horror film: "Evil Eye"! Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care!
The film begins with a story in a mysterious land, where three sisters born as triplets,
catch everyone's attention every time they accompany their mother to the village. A
mysterious old woman helps one of the sisters as she trips, and discreetly steals the ribbon
from her hair. Later that night, one sister wakes up as she hears some noises, and lets
out a terrified scream after seeing a witch sucking the blood from her other sister.
Cut to the present day, an adolescent, Nala, wakes up after hearing the beeper on her sister's back
go off. Their parents, Becca and her husband, rush to the room, and insert a syringe into the sister,
Luna, to calm down the seizures. Becca cannot help but shed tears as her mysterious illness
worsens. The following day, their doctor suggests hospitalizing Luna, as her body is
failing and becoming resistant to the treatment, which leads to an argument that night.
Nala listens as her father wants to take Luna to the hospital; but Becca firmly
refuses as they have tried everything and gone anywhere, but nothing worked. The following day,
Nala doesn't hide her annoyance, as her parents decide to return to Becca's hometown for Luna,
as she believes there's an alternative treatment. Nala responds that everything is for Luna.
As the family's about to leave, they run into their neighbor, who informs them that several
kids are sick in their apartment building. Before leaving, Becca asks Nala to help her care for
Luna; but Nala responds that she's already coming on the trip. As they are near their destination,
the family witnesses a funeral for a child. Moments later, the family arrives at their
destination, warmly welcomed by Becca's mother, Josefa, whose back is hunched, and walks around
with a cane. Upon entering, Nala's attitude kicks in, as there's no signal or wifi in the home;
so Becca asks her to take Luna to the garden. Nala rolls her eyes as she sees the pool full of
leaves, but they light up as she sees the topless gardener. They return to the house shortly after,
where Nala witnesses her mother arguing with Josefa, who tells Becca that she
should not have returned, especially with her daughters. Despite her fear, Becca claims she
will do anything for her daughters. Josefa changes the subject after seeing
Nala eavesdropping, and informs Becca that she has a maid in a relationship with the
gardener. Josefa takes them to the kitchen, where the girls meet the Maid. At dinner,
Josefa insists on asking Becca's husband if he genuinely agrees to the trip's purpose,
pissing off Becca. However, he still respectfully answers, and replies that there's an epidemic in
their apartment building, leaving children sick; so he wants to get help for Luna.
Josefa becomes suspicious, as only Nala and Luna haven't caught the epidemic, but Becca changes the
subject, with a public display of affection on the table. After dinner, the Maid visits the girls,
knowing that the countryside is too quiet for them. She then shows a dress, gifted by Josefa to
Nala; but Nala calls it disgusting. Luna asks the maid to tell them a rural legend; but she refuses
as most of them are scary. However, Luna insists that she will not get frightened; so the maid
agrees to share the "Legend of the Triplets." A long time ago, an evil being started to visit
three sisters while they were asleep. An evil witch sucked children's blood to
steal their youth, so she could stay young forever. Year after year, the wicked witch
sucked the blood of one of the triplets every night, leaving her to deal with many health
issues. So the other two sisters hid a pair of scissors under the mattress for protection.
It was believed that scissors repel witches, but they were too late, as the witch had
sucked too much blood from the sister. So the desperate sisters walked to a distant cabin,
where a sorceress from the Caribbean lived. One was scared, while the other was determined to help
their ailing sister, so the sorceress proposed a deal. She would teach them how to make a Bacà,
which can be used to save their sister's life. But there's always a payback.
Bacà is a mythological creature that comes from the darkest corners of the Caribbean,
and will make any wish come true. But in exchange, it brings evil to the asker. Also, in exchange
for helping them, the sisters would ask for riches, and give them to the sorceress.
So the sisters followed the legend, and buried an ostrich egg with the blood of a goat, a snake,
and a child under the full moon, in a particular place only known to witches. After the sixth day,
something was born from the egg; and with the Bacà, the ailed sister got better,
but never recovered completely. The sisters kept their part of the deal; but the sorceress kept
them as servants, promising to teach them the secrets of dark magic, alluring one of them.
However, the other sister chose to stay away from dark magic. One day while working as an
apprentice for the sorceress, the brave one found her sick sister's ribbon. However,
She realized that the sorceress was the same witch, who made their sister sick;
so she decided to kill the sorceress. The storytelling is cut off as Becca enters
the room, and forbids the maid from telling rural legends to her daughters. After this,
she leaves the maid with Luna, while she talks to Nala downstairs. Becca informs her that they will
go tomorrow to find an alternative treatment for Luna, pissing off Nala because she needs to deal
with bitter Josefa. Nala's disrespectful attitude increases, and she calls Becca by her name,
just as Becca does to her mother. While Becca leaves in frustration,
Nala notices her grandma upstairs eavesdropping. Later, Josefa eavesdrops again on the couple,
as they worry about leaving their daughters to their grandmother. Josefa stays and watches,
as the couple makes up by being intimate. The following day, Becca reminds Nala that they
will talk once they return. Later that day, Josefa starts addressing Nala as "mamita",
telling her there are rules to follow now that they live in her house, such as not letting any
food go to waste, despite Nala being a vegetarian. She is also forbidden to swim and wear a swimsuit,
as the locals might think she's a whore. Later that night, Nala pretends to be asleep,
as she hears her grandma entering their room. Josefa suddenly places her hand a few inches
away from her face while murmuring. After that, she leaves the room, but hurriedly without using
the cane. In fear, Nala locks their room. The following day, Nala asks the maid about the
end of the legend of the triplets. However, the maid refuses as she will get in trouble;
but Nala points out that her mother is away. So the maid continues the story. After realizing
that the sorceress made their sister sick, the two sisters sneaked into her cabin, found the
witch's skin inside a pumpkin, and sprinkled it with salt inside and out. They waited for
the witch to return from flying, and watched as she burned from the inside out. However,
before her death, she cast an evil eye on the sisters with her final breath.
The witch swore envy would be their doom, so the triplets suffered one last tragedy. The Bacà took
their mother's life, and the sisters didn't even realize they killed their mother that way. So
the sister who refused to use dark magic earlier, amended her mistake by stabbing the Bacà to death,
but leaving their ailed sister sick to the end of her days, and the two sisters estranged forever.
One continued practicing dark magic, while the other swore never to do it again. The
witchcraft spread through the village, forcing them to go into hiding. The story ends in time
as Josefa enters the kitchen, and orders Nala to clean the pool if she wants to swim and not
ask other people. Nala firmly refuses to leave Luna, but the maid assures her that
she will take care of Luna, leaving Nala with no choice but to clean the pool.
Nala returns inside tired, but still needs to make the pool clean. Josefa tells her
to continue tomorrow before going upstairs. Later that night, Nala hides a pair of scissors
underneath Luna's bed, as she is suspicious about her grandmother. Nala wakes up mid-night,
and goes to the kitchen to drink when she hears a faint voice calling her.
she follows it, and finds a live Bacà in the cooker, prompting her to run upstairs in fear.
However, she finds witchcraft tools in Josefa's room, including Luna's elephant bear pinned by
nails. Aside from that, Nala also sees a witch's skin inside a pumpkin, when she notices that
Josefa is suddenly gone from her rocking chair. Suddenly, a hand from the pumpkin grabs her.
Nala wakes up from the nightmare, and notices someone by Luna's footbed. She checks it out,
and faces a witch sucking Luna's blood. The witch escapes through the window, while Luna seizures
again. Nala wakes up from this, and is about to leave with Luna; but Luna suddenly throws up.
Nala goes downstairs to inform her grandma, who's talking to Becca on the phone.
Nala doesn't notice the scarf around Josefa's head and the oversized sunglasses,
and asks to talk to her mother; but Josefa lies about their whereabouts before ending the call.
She then locks the telephone before putting a wet towel on Luna's head, and blames Nala for making
her sister sick. Later that day, Nala shares with the maid her worries about her grandmother,
refusing to let her parents know about what's happening, and how she might be a witch.
The maid laughs at Nala's imagination as Josefa is well-respected in town. While Josefa is busy
caring for Luna, Nala wanders around until she ends up in the attic, where she finds a
signal. She tries to contact her parents, but they're out of reach; so Nala wanders around
instead. She finds a thick photo album and goes through it, when Josefa suddenly appears.
Josefa grabs her downstairs, and walks perfectly without the cane, while castigating Nala for going
to the attic without her permission. So Josefa forcefully takes her phone, and stomps on it,
infuriating Nala. Later that night, Nala goes through the photo album with Luna. They find a
picture of Becca, together with Josefa and Becca's grandmother. Later that night, Nala wakes up as
she feels Luna moving back and forth. She looks down, and sees someone under the sheet.
It stops after realizing that Nala is awake; but an old woman suddenly emerges from underneath,
and puts Nala asleep with a spell. After that, she returns, sucking Luna's blood. As soon
as she wakes, Nala checks her sister's foot, and finds it red with blood from bites.
So she forces Luna to escape the house with her. They run into the woods,
where they find the maid and the gardener's cabin; but Luna is too weak to walk by then.
Nala has no choice but to leave her outside, while she looks for the maid in the cabin.
However, she hears moans from upstairs and follows them, where she finds the maid and the
gardener doing some hormone therapy, while they hurt themselves with a knife. Witnessing this,
Nala runs outside, only to find Luna having a seizure again.
Suddenly, Josefa arrives and carries Luna back to the house, while Nala gets the syringe. After
saving Luna's life, Josefa slaps Nala for almost killing her sister. However,
Nala rebuts that she saw her sucking Luna's blood last night, accusing her of being a witch.
So Josefa grabs her by the hair, and locks her in the room underneath the stairs.
Although scared, Nala wanders around, and realizes that it's one big room where she
can see the pool. She finds a weird altar with drawings on the walls, when she suddenly hears
the gardener calling her. The gardener shares that the maid has asked him to check on her; but Nala
remembers what she saw in the cabin, and accuses them of being accomplices of her grandma.
Despite that, she pleads that he helps her; but the gardener refuses as he will get in trouble.
So he assures her that he will keep a close eye on Luna. later, Nala wakes up after hearing her
grandma calling her, so she returns to the stairs, where she is freed. Now The bandages on Josefa's
face are noticeable; but Nala ignores that, as she's worried about her sister. Josefa tells
her to go to the swimming pool, so Nala rushes outside, where she finds the gardener's body.
Josefa blames her for asking the gardener to clean the pool, causing him to trip and hit his
head. Not long after, the police interview Josefa. Nala barges in, telling them that
her grandma is a witch. However, the police ignore her smelly bullshit and leave.
Josefa finally shows Luna to her sister, who is shocked to see her in a rocking chair,
with a syringe on her arm as Josefa takes her blood sample. Suddenly, they hear the phone
ringing, so Nala rushes downstairs, and cries as she hears her mother's voice. She tries to
tell her what's happening; but the signal is poor, and Josefa disconnects the line.
After that, Josefa locks her again in the room under the stairs; but Nala breaks the door with
a shovel. She goes upstairs, takes the scissors from Luna's bed, and stabs Josefa in the leg
before escaping with Luna. They return to the woods, where they find people dancing
around a fire and the maid with the gardener's corpse. The maid washes her face with blood,
before facing her dead lover and slashing her own throat. The crowd cheers like maniacs,
while Nala runs with Luna. As this happens, Becca dances
weirdly while wearing a mask, as a Bacà is born from an egg. Suddenly, Luna has seizures again,
and Nala panics as she accidentally breaks the syringe. As Becca kisses the Bacà,
Luna returns to life, presumably revived by the power of Baca. so the two sisters continue walking
until the morning arrives. They lie on the road, as Nala loses consciousness from exhaustion.
Shortly after, their parents find them while driving back, and put them in the car. Nala
wakes up with Josefa in front of her, but her eyes are numb as Josefa blows powder at her.
Josefa pretends to be weak, as soon as the couple enters the room. The husband thanks Josefa for
her kindness, but is firm on leaving as soon as Nala wakes up. Nala has no choice but to listen,
as she cannot open her eyes; while Josefa reminds Becca what they used to do as a child.
Becca thanks Josefa for taking care of the girls before leaving. Left alone with Nala,
Josefa assures her that she will not leave Luna even on her dead body. After this, she locks the
door, while Becca notices the bite marks on Luna's foot. Realizing something, She tells her husband
to fetch Nala if she's not back in five minutes, before returning inside to confront Josefa.
However, as she enters Josefa's room, Josefa knocks her unconscious, claiming that she
will keep her daughters away from her for the same that Becca did to take her mother away. Elsewhere,
Nala finds more pictures of Becca and Josefa together with a sick girl, who turns out to
be their ill sister. It reveals the epidemic in their apartment building, because of Becca sucking
children's blood at night to keep her young. Becca is actually the sister in the legend that
continued practicing witchcraft, while Josefa is the sister who refused to use dark magic.
At this time, Josefa, who reveals has turned back to witchcraft,
is young again from drinking Luna's blood, and looks like her triplet sister Becca in
appearance. It's revealed that Josefa resorted to witchcraft to bring back her youth, because
she's jealous of her sister's ever-lasting youth and her young husband. In fact,
the envy of that is triggered by the evil eye curse, cast by the sorcerer in the past.
Now She pretends to be Becca, and informs Nala that her grandmother will stay with
them for a few weeks. Josefa then leaves Nala, and assures Becca's husband that Nala is fine
and is saying goodbye to her grandmother. After the revelation, Nala goes into Josefa's room,
where she finds her mother sleeping. But Believing that she is Josefa, Nala repeatedly stabs her with
the scissors, while Josefa enjoys a smelly workout with Becca's husband in the car,
taking advantage of her sister's identity. Nala then pours a pack of salt on Becca,
unknowingly burning her mother to death. Josefa manipulated Nala to kill Becca because she
blamed Becca for causing their mother's death by trying dark magic in the first place. After that,
she cleans herself, and wears the disgusting dress from Josefa before going outside. Josefa
comments that she wore the dress; but Nala remains silent and gets into the car.
Back in their home, the doctor comments on how miraculously Luna recovered completely. However,
the father is worried about Nala, as she hasn't said a word since their return. Later that night,
Nala wakes up as she feels excruciating pain in her stomach. She looks down,
and realizes that she got her first period. She puts her tainted bedsheet and clothes in
the machine when she hears something. She follows it, only to find the Bacà hidden in a box.
Suddenly, Josefa returns from flying and sucking children's blood. Accepting that her mother is
a witch, Nala cries as Josefa embraces her. The film ends with Nala struggling to free herself,
as she realizes that she unknowingly killed her mother after Josefa calls her "mamita".
