maxmages So I think the movie is pretty garbage I do not like horror movies is not a secret but I made the Evil Dead movies and so I was very curious how they might look today, with today's facts, today's technology, today's make-up etc but unfortunately the movie does exactly the wrong thing that makes many horror movies today it takes too seriously, wide parts of the movie are completely dark so you can hardly see anything and the brutal scenes are once again cut as ugly as in a hip hop video so that you can not enjoy the full impact and impact of the injury at all, or suffer the pain.What a lot of people will not understand I think it's too good a lot too nice a lot to it yes it's too much with that and the cold drug withdrawal is way too serious that just does not fit into this kind of movie. I want the beginning scene with the father who has to expel the evil from his daughter and because he does not succeed then then shoot. but nothing else absolutely nothing I could not find anything about this movie, nothing in this movie was anything exciting, nothing was funny, nothing was scary and he was not even bored so he would be a good fall asleep just boring in terms of that he has moved and I wondered all the time when this garbage is finally over.I know the movie has its fans but I definitely do not have it I just thought it was disgusting and I'm glad to be left alone with this version of "Evil Dead".
timlynne Total gratuitous violence, no story, no structure, made for slash em up impressionable teenagers; avoid if you've got a couple of brain cells !
adonis98-743-186503 Five friends head to a remote cabin, where the discovery of a Book of the Dead leads them to unwittingly summon up demons living in the nearby woods. The Evil Dead Remake is more serious and disgusting than the original Trilogy but it's missing Bruce Campbell's over the top perfomance and the brilliant camp of it's previous installments. The acting is terrible and the horror element even tho it's not meant to be hilarious it's not that scary either and some scenes are pure nostalgic like the one with the chainsaw or the ending as a whole. Plus the characters are stupid especially the blonde dude who reads the book and let's the curse free also the whole plot arc with Mia's character and her drug addiction was so boring. Overall except the Bruce Campbell cameo? There isn't lots of good things to be said and personally? Stick to the Ash v.s Evil Dead Series which is much better. (0/10)
markelia If you want the original Evil Dead, there are some connections to the older film here and some new additions. The set feels nostalgic and remiscent. The brutality is certainly here, lots of cringy gore. No censorship, some sexually disturbing shots (a bit like the older one).The story and characters are somewhat deviant, however. I thought that the script and the acting were weak at the start, but I think that Mia really got into her role once things picked up. The rest of performances were sub-par and the characters themselves were boring and had no depth/interrelationships that were notable. BUT, as far as horror movies go, I still think this was a good movie. I watched it alone in the dark, so that may have added to the thrill a bit, but it certainly has the potential to keep you biting your nails and jumping off your seat every once in awhile. I think that the opening scene, by the way, was PHENOMENAL. So well done in my opinion, one of the best openers for a horror.If you watch horrors with the same mindset that you have for all other films, I'd say it's a 5/10. If you watch horrors with the mindset that you're going to be watching a horror (as I do), I'd give it a 7/10.That being said, to name a few horror movies that I hold in high regard: Conjuring films, The Thing (old one), The Mist, The Ritual, It Follows, The Others, The Village, The Witch.
