Evolve’s live-action trailer is just teens playing hide and seek

Olly olly oxen free!

Let me go ahead and preemptively dash anyone’s hopes that an Evolve live-action trailer might be cool in any conceivable way. It’s just some teens running around in the woods with flashlights  — basically a Friday the 13th movie without the sex and a psycho-murderer.

When Evolve releases on February 10, chances are that hunting your buddies will be a lot more intriguing than this trailer makes it look. The couch may be a tame setting, but at least the climax won’t be your friend jumping in the water and then leaping at you like he has rabies.
