GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Steineded How sad is this?

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

nguyenthithuhien-26433 Five twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.

fstammen This week I rewatched the original Evil Dead. I like it but I am not the biggest fan of that movie. Last night I came home late and turned on the TV to see the 2013 version. It's a total mess.Acting is bad, CGI is bad for a 2013 movie. The CGI seemed to be pulled out of a PS4 or something. It was no real horror story, just a reshoot of the original with lots of gare, a few minor scares and a whole load of stupidity. Yeah the story is one pile up of stupid actions take by the characters. And the movie was almost unwatchable because everything was filmed so darkly. It was like they tried to hide the cheapness of it all. It's clear that the supposed 14 million budget is not used for filming but for a marketing campaign with trailers and positive reviews on film sites.This movie takes itself too seriously and the gore is overdone. It's like they just tried to shock people with gore and more gore. If you like that, this movies is for you. If you want to see horror, this movie is to be avoided. It uses much of the original movie as a template but they changed some things to make it more serious like the rehab part of why they went to the cabin in the first place. The original was not that serious and that worked much better.

DerekB 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.

Smoreni Zmaj Although I'm usually against remakes, in this case I fully agree with the project. Movie tells essentially the same story as the original, but with more serious approach. While "The Evil Dead" (1981) was shallow, stupid, cheap and over-the-top to ridiculousness, "Evil Dead" (2013) is serious horror movie. The story is better developed, with more convincing details, and has a much better dramatization and characterization than the original (not to say that there's none in the original flick). It begins as a drama, introduces us to characters, builds suspense and eerie atmosphere, and only after twenty minutes slowly moves with the introduction of horror elements in the story. Actors are completely unknown to me, which, if they are good, is a great addition for watching horror movie. The acting and directing are good, music is atmospheric, and the effects are, although they copy original and do not use CGI, much more credible and effective. Maybe I'm a sissy, but I had to pause few times to relax. The film retains many of the original scenes, but the roles are scrambled. Good example is cult scene in which Ash cuts off his hand with chainsaw. In remake, demon takes over hand of one of the girls and she also removes it, but unlike the original story, here the cutting does not help and soon the demon takes over and she dies. This change in the story is quite fine, but one thing I can not forgive - they replaced Ash's chainsaw with small kitchen electric cutter... wtf, really?! The end is completely changed, but it's great. All in all, a top horror, a recommendation to all fans of the genre.8/10
