I'm undecided at the moment

The trailer looks good and it has a solid 64% on Rotten tomatoes. I'm leaning towards yes but :yeshrug:

Thoughts?

Saw it this week at a screening. Pretty faithful to the original Evil Dead, but has no comedy whatsoever like the other 2. If you like violence and gore you'll love it. Goriest movie I've ever seen. Not real scary, just a lot of :mindblown: moments. There are also a lot of :childplease: moments so don't go in expecting realism in any way.

7.5/10 for me. better than 90% of the horror/slasher movies that have been out in the past few years.

hoping The Conjuring and Insidious Part II will be better tho :krs:

Might just go watch Jurassic Park in 3D since I've never watched it in Theaters before.

this isn't it...100% garbage, I'm not sure if it was by Michael Bay's company, but it had that same sterile, slick, soulless feel as the rest of the remakes he has helmed or produced. Was literally like 'Cabin In The Woods' played seriously.

Truthfully, I haven't, but this is just done without any sense of self awareness or humor, it's played 100% straight, and in the wake of a movie like 'Cabin in the Woods' is rendered almost near parody. It doesn't follow the original, except the traces of the plot, and nods/scenes from it, my friend is a die hard 'Evil Dead' fan and he was having a nerd fit after the movie. It's a bad movie in general, and a terrible horror movie, just like 'Nightmare on El Street' and 'Friday The 13th' remakes.

:wtf:

That was the OG "Evil Dead". You ever see the original?

Fred.

I'm going to say he hasn't. I remember seeing the first one, the scary one not the cheesy one, it legit scared me when I was a kid. The first Evil Dead is the reason why I love scary movies.
