A Disappointing Continuation

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

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".

During the 1980's the pop culture ran film after film of Jason and Freddie. Real horror fans quietly turned "Evil Dead" into a cult classic with collectors DVDs selling up to $100.00.The remake has high standards to meet for devoted fans. Some fans claim it is not a remake, but if you use the same name and have many of the same scenes, it's a duck.1) The book has to be convincing. They did fine here. 2) The forest rape scene was a signature scene. This film didn't improve on it. One would expect with all the CG effects available, this would have been far better. It was worse. In fact there was a complete lack of special effects I was hoping for. 3) Bruce Campbell and a chainsaw. They didn't even come close. Jessica Lucas? Shiloh Fernandez? Please. They needed a name actor to take that role and write it with some personality. They didn't. 4) There was also a high amount of camp value to the original film series. This one eliminates all the humor. Seriously, where is the hand running around giving people the finger as in the ED 2? I think the whole movie gave the viewers the finger.If you have seen the original, you can wait to watch this as a rental. This won't make my collection as did the faux skin covered DVD. Having trashed this film, I will say if you haven't seen the original and know nothing about "Evil Dead" you might find that you will like this blood fest. My recommendation is to watch the original and "leave this book alone".Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex. Sketch nudity in book, mud nudity?

2013's Evil Dead gets a lot of hate, but is it really all that deserved? Well, I would say it's more of a yes and no thing that only one or the other.I wasn't that big of a fan of the original Evil Dead, but I can't deny the profound effect it had on the genre. Fans of the original are going to notice a lot of similarities, but Evil Dead 2013 still has enough differences that I would say it's worth watching at least to see the changes that were made.I think the biggest thing Evil Dead 2013 has going for it is how much fan-service there is with all the references to the older Evil Dead movies and the absolutely ridiculous amounts of gore. I can see why that would turn a lot of people off, but the effects do look really good, and the self aware over-the-top presentation makes it redundant to criticize since just as many people will love it for the same reason so many people will hate it.The biggest problem with Evil Dead 2013 is the abundance of horror movie cliches, and twists that can be seen coming from a mile away. Part of this is because this is an Evil Dead film, but most movie squeals (especially horror) will inevitably fall into that cycle.I think the trailer really does sum up what the movie is like, and even if you haven't seen the original Evil Dead, if you like the trailer then you'll probably like the movie.

Briefly watched the original movie and it frustrated me with how fake it was (yes I know it was over 30 years ago) I read a couple of reviews on this film before watching it and I must say it was thoroughly enjoyable and had plenty of action, gore and an excellent ending!
