TikZ: complex mask over image (even odd rule)

I need to draw masks (with various shapes) over an image. For example, I made a circle mask like this:

documentclass[border=10pt]standalone
usepackagetikz
definecolorbackgroundHTML2C414C
definecolorforegroundHTMLFFFFFF
usetikzlibrarypositioning,fit
begindocument
begintikzpicture[inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt, draw=foreground, fill=foreground]
 node (image) includegraphicsexample-image;
 fill [red, opacity=0.5,even odd rule]
 (image.north west) rectangle (image.south east) % Cover up everything
 (0,1) circle [radius=50pt]; % Punch a hole
endtikzpicture
enddocument

mask example

How do I use a more complex shape instead of the circle? Specifically, I need a heart shape. I tried using the one from this answer, but it either causes errors or doesn't appear:

begintikzpicture[inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt, draw=foreground, fill=foreground]
 node (image) includegraphicsexample-image;
 fill [red, opacity=0.5,even odd rule]
 (image.north west) rectangle (image.south east)
 (0,1) draw .. controls (0,0.75) and (-1.5,1.00) .. (-1.5,2) arc (180:0:0.75) -- cycle;
 (0,1) draw .. controls (0,0.75) and ( 1.5,1.00) .. ( 1.5,2) arc (0:180:0.75) -- cycle;
endtikzpicture
