The original is much better! 3/10

Rating: 3/10 (17 August 2013)

Review: This is what happens when you tamper with a classic and you stick annoying teenagers in it...... You end up making an average horror movie, just like loads of horror movies that are on the market right now. The whole thing about the original Evil Dead was the period that it came out and the fact that they banned it. All of the characters in this film were pretty annoying and by the end of the movie, you just want them to die. This reboot really doesn't have the wit as the original and it just doesn't work without Bruce Campbell and his funny face expressions. There are some pretty gory bits in the film which goes a bit too far in places, but it works. The reboot isn't totally bad, but they really did need better characters. Average!
Round-Up: If there are people out there that read my reviews, I think that you will know that I'm not really into my horrors, but I grew up with watching the original Evil Dead which was really funny and quite disturbing for its time. You will never get an actor like Bruce Campbell to play the role the same and I'm glad that the director didn't try. Bruce Campbell was actually totally against rebooting the franchise, but once he knew that they wasn't going to attempt to get another lead like him, they went ahead with the project. Judging by the money that I've movie made, I wouldn't be surprised to see a sequel soon and I hope that they get rid of the annoying teenagers.
Budget: $17million Worldwide Gross: $98million
I recommend this movie to people who were fans of the original and who are not the bloody horror movies. 3/10
