A very good "reboot" and worth seeing.

Rating: 8/10 (1 July 2013)

This movie was as good as I was hoping. From the start it paid homage to the original with the way it was shot, the cabin was almost the same in the way it was set as the original, and having the old car from the first film was a great addition too. Now I know a lot of "traditionalists" won't like it because its a reboot, but as some of you may know, I like a good remake/reboot, and this film for me was right up there with 'Maniac' and 'Dawn of the Dead'. I did like the characters, even though there was no Ash, but according to those in the know, this film is meant to be a sequel more than a reboot (and now people will be arguing that fact), so it makes sense that there was no character called Ash. As for the violence and gore, I LOVED it! There was plenty of it, and some of the scenes had me cringing. Loved that. The only part that annoyed me about this movie was the >> SPOILER ALERT << part where the book reads, "DO NOT READ", yet the guy does it any way. Why do people do the opposite all the bloody time?! Anyway, the film was very good in my opinion and for that reason I give it a solid 8.5 out of 10.
