Evil Dead: A Brilliant Horror Remake

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2013)

I could go on and on about how amazing I thought Evil Dead was. But I'll let you guys experience most of it for yourselves. For now, I'll just go over what really stood out to me, and what I think could have been done better. All in my opinion, obviously.
The first thing that immediately stood out to me in this movie, was the amazing cinematography. The shots are beautifully thought out and crafted and it instantly draws you in. The opening scene alone has amazing shots, and has the perfect amount of "what the f**k" moments. Throughout the movie, the story flows nicely. There are a couple moments where I feel the characters make pretty stupid decisions, like sending a girl back into the cabin knowing there's a demon locked inside. It's pretty obvious what happens after that happens.
As for the gore...there's lots of bloody goodness! After the first 30 minutes or so, it's pretty much nonstop, and the chase final scene literally rains blood. So if blood makes you squeamish, this movie is definitely not for you. It all looks very nice though, every little bit of gore looks extremely lifelike and adds to the brilliance of this film.
I don't want to give too much away, so I'll just keep it short and sweet for now. But I do recommend this movie, even for people who aren't fans of the original. Unlike that, this remake isn't meant to be comical in the least bit. Just bloody violence from beginning to end! 8/10
