If you love soul-crushing disappointment, this movie is for you....

Rating: 1/10 (4 June 2013)

First of all, anyone expecting this to be as good as the original.... You can forget that idea.
Every single thing that made the originals cult classics is totally gone from this remake(if you could even call it that). This movie was turned into another copycat Hollywood "horror".
Lets start with the characters. The only characters name I remember is the junky girls, Mia, but only because she was pretty much the focus of the whole movie. She was the only credible actor in this whole clusterpuck of a film. The male lead, whatsizname?, was nothing like Ash (Bruce Campbell w00t w00t!!) and in fact, he was the complete opposite. Ash = badass with a chainsaw, whatshisface = complete wussy through the entire movie. He literally did not man up at all in any way, even when he got hold of a shotgun.
As for the other characters, there's nothing to be said because they were less than nothing. Just more meat for the Hollywood grinder.
The plot was incredibly hollow, the Necronomicon looked like a history textbook on the inside, the infamous "chainsawing the hand off" in this version was boring, and a lot of the effects clearly had continuity errors, not small errors mind you, in-your-face cant-miss-it errors, which shows in the last 10mins of the movie mostly.
You're better off going and buying the original trilogy and have a night in with friends, beer and pizza. I urge you not to throw money away at the cinema on this horribly disappointing rotten tomato.
