Rating: 1/10 (19 April 2013)

Oh dear, I can't remember the last time I watched a movie and was unable to find even 1 redeeming feature.
This is a 'horror' movie for people who don't want to be scared, every part of the film is a tired rehash of many other horror movies (think exorcist, numerous teenagers lost in the woods flicks etc) but done much, much worse and, save for a few scenes, not much of a nod to the evil dead original. All the characters are unlikeable to the point where you hope they are going to be killed, the story (what there is of it) is dull and the horror/gore is boring, predictable and unoriginal. Although it carries an 18 rating it is without doubt the least scary horror film I have ever seen - it is so predictable it's embarrassing and it makes for a long 90 minutes.
I went into this movie genuinely excited to see how they were going to take it but but left incredibly frustrated as a reprise of the evil dead should have been a surefire hit - sadly it feels like it was made solely to put cash in the bank.
To summarise this film is a waste of time - save your money and spend it on something better like a tooth extraction or your 1st instalment on that lobotomy you never wanted.
