Not at all scary and yet another fail Mt Rami!

Rating: 1/10 (25 January 2013)

OH DEAR where to start....
Well no spoilers as I firmly believe people should make their own judgements but I thought it was an over-hyped, over praised predictable pile of poop and yet another nail in the coffin of the man that inspired me to get into horror Sam Rami. I was truly bored before I had even finished my bag of wine gums and wanted to give up but soldiered through no the less.
I had high hopes for Ramis' return to horror after bastardising my favourite comic book hero Spidey in three god awful films and he succeeded......in making another pile of Hollywood piffle!
I felt no empathy or passion for any characters with the cliché set pieces and "trying to add one last shock at the end" were a disgrace to the genre and all the greats who have strived over the years to popularise the horror market (which I hasten to add Ramis' Evil Dead trilogy assisted in cult proportion).
It makes me wonder what is the price of sacrificing your talent and originality is to keep the studio bosses smiling and prolong a directorial career shown in Ramis' continuing disappearance up his own ego.
If you want to be truly horrified then just watch Hollywood sodomise a once talented director.
