Just watched it and I enjoyed it. Just the right amount of gore, jump scares and exposition to keep things moving and interesting.
What do you think?
I think this one was great. The 2013 movie may have had more motional impact, the classic setting, and probably is overall a better movie, but this one feels like it embodies what “Evil Dead” is as a franchise much more. It would have been nice is the family was a bit more likable (the two older kids are these weird caricatures), but the lead and the younger kid are likable enough for me to root for them. I also think in terms of balancing comedy and horror, this is my sweet spot.
I’ve seen a couple people say this movie is boring. You don’t have to like the movie, but I don’t see how a movie where
spoiler
someone’s scalp gets ripped off in the first 5 min of the movie could be boring.
