10/10 for the Biased Reviews

Rating: 10/10 (31 March 2019)

Great sequel to "The Evil Dead" from Sam Raimi in 1981. For those that say this is missing the slapstick humor of Bruce Campbell, this isn't a remake nor is it a sequel to Evil Dead 2 and AoD. This is a sequel to the original, which means it carries the spirit for what it was then (Serious and Disturbing). Unfortunately, this was not known to many so a lot of the 'negative' reviews are of people who see this as an inferior remake or as not a true successor to the trilogy as a whole. Remember Halloween from 2018? This is exactly the same approach. If you don't take my word for it, rewatch the film and keep an eye out for a rusted 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88. If that's not obvious enough, read the director's comment on this being a sequel to the original (the director is known as Fede Alvarez, hand selected by Sam Raimi himself); you're welcome.
P.S. If you have seen the theatrical cut of this film and liked it even in the slightest, I recommend watching the Director's Cut that was released a few months ago on Blu-Ray in preparation of the sequel Fede announced last year. I hope Bruce considers pushing two more out; Army of Darkness 2 (Mad Ash in Post-Apocalyptic Earth) & Evil Dead III (Ash-Mia Crossover), in which Ash attempts to return back to the present but ends up in a parallel reality where he died at dawn, giving Fede's Evil Dead Sequel a faithful direction with Ash's car remaining on the property.
