Evil Dead

Unfortunately, this movie just doesn't live up to the original. I always try to ignore the original movies when I watch remakes, especially horror remakes, but this movie just made me want to turn it off and go watch the original and part 2. It's not ALL bad, and the final sequence is absolutely the best part, but the rest of the movie is simply lackluster and disappointing.

Dead Evil! In truth this was always going to struggle to appease many of the horror hordes, Sam Raimi's original film held up as some sort of religious artifact that should never be tempered with - this even though it was considerably trumped by the sequel (erm: remake). Is it fair to say that even before it was released there were those hating it? It certainly seemed that way.…

Has all the props we remember him the original.Some new information about the book(necronomicon).Yet the sacastic amounts of blood wasn't funny.The only funny line was"Why does my face hurt?".I hope that Evil Dead2 will bring back the jokes & overacting that the second original did.Bruce Campbell one liner of "Groovy" we hope is a precursor to the next movie!I hope that we see it to "Army of darkness"!!!
