Evil Dead Rise (DVD)

Not as groovy, but still fun
Yes. But also no? Loved this and exploring evil dead beyond the camp. But I love camp. I am torn. I mean there’s a pretty sick wood chipper scene that’s filled some silliness. But, I just….want a chainsaw slammed onto a chopped off hand nub that inexplicably continues to work. I’m going to be brave and say what I feel. Who are you to judge me? AND IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK TO HAVE THE SHOTGUN IN THE FILM SAY S-MART ON IT COME ON.

Great movie, but it didn't come with a code.
The movie is great and the case itself came in perfect condition, but for some reason the sheet that is meant to have a redemption code and QR code didn't have either printed on it and is just totally blank. This would be a 5/5 review if it came with the code, but that'll cost it two stars. I got this on a great deal, but if I bought it at full price and it didn't come with the code I'd probably be pretty annoyed.

Bloody, gory fun
I'll admit, I'm biased: I have yet to see an Evil Dead movie I didn't like, although the reasons for that vary from film to film. This is higher-budget than any of the Sam Raimi classics, and faster-paced than the 2013 Evil Dead, but seems to pack as much blood and gore into its 96 minutes as any of the others.The story is simple, and follows the same outline as the other Evil Deads. Someone finds the forbidden book, someone intones the unholy incantation and summons the ancient demons, and Bad Things happen to the people in the vicinity. The variety comes from finding out how many different bloody circumstances you can hang on the same framework.Aside from the prologue (which pays tribute to Wuthering Heights and it's ghost-story narrative frame), the action takes place in a nearly-abandoned and soon-to-be-demolished apartment building. Guitar technician Beth, having just been hit with some life-changing news, visits her sister Ellie and Ellie's three kids, in an apartment complex that looks like it should have been condemned a decade ago. Although they clearly share a familial bond, the two sisters do not get along well. Ellie repeatedly refers to Beth as a "Groupie", disrespecting her actual job, and Beth has been so absent from Ellie's life that she learns of her separation from her husband months after the fact.A mild earthquake reveals a crack in the foundation of the building, uncovering a vault where the Necronomicon—err, the "Naturom Demonto"—has been hidden. One of the teen children opens it and plays the accompanying vinyl recording, and the spirits arise. Their first victim is Ellie, who becomes possessed while in the elevator, and things go downhill from there, leading to a climax in the parking garage between the survivors and a hideous, hybrid monster.In between, this movie pours on the red sauce, and displays other body horror elements that are a trademark of the franchise. Alyssa Sutherland is creepy as the possessed mother, and Lily Sullivan is convincingly bad-ass as her survive-at-all-costs sister. Even the young actors do well in this movie, which is always dicey, especially in a movie as intense as this. The pacing is perfect and the gore effects are revolting.This isn't for everyone, but if you've read this far, you know what kind of movie it aims to be, and I am pleased to report it hits its target dead center.

Rise again Evil Dead!
Good decent movie! 5 stars cause the disc worked perfectly but maybe a 4/5 stars movie. A lot of the scenes felt stolen from other scenes like the banging head was right out of hereditary which every horror film has been doing since that movie came out, wether it’s Talk To Me or Longlegs or this. The blood in the elevator was right out of the Shinning. The glass eating scene is probably the only one original to this film. It is what it is tho. Easily my second favorite evil dead film next to evil dead 2 which actually made me become interested in this franchise since 1 wasn’t all that for me.
