Based on the shocking true story of the former Soviet Union s most notorious serial killer, this riveting, haunting film explores the mind of a true monster; a man who mutilated and devoured more than 50 children. For years, Andrei Evilenko (Malcolm McDowell) eluded the obsessive Detective Lesiev (Marton Csokas) and the psychiatric profiler Aron Richter (Ronald Pickup). Spurred on by his rabid fury at the gradual crumbling of his precious Soviet Union, Evilenko is a man who will live, die and kill as a communist. (TLA Releasing UK)

English Evilenko is a boring, flat, monotonous and above all superfluous film. It fails as a reconstruction of actual events, because it twists reality, changing it to fit its own vision. And it fails as a fictional thriller/shocker about a serial killer because it doesn’t offer the basics: a well-thought-out police investigation and terrifying murders. Evilenko seems to have been made by a naïve, conservative TV filmmaker who thinks that gloomy music and one well-cast actor will turn his work into a masterpiece. That was a grievous mistake. ()
