I found it an unpredictable, unique horror with outstanding tension.

Rating: 8/10 (25 September 2013)

If your heart is not completely set on the original horror then this is a terrific and riveting horror film. It contributes to what I believe horror should be. The violence should not be filtered for teenage viewers, it should be chaotic and it should satisfy the needs of true horror fans. For those who say this is pathetic compared to the original, If you were expecting an exact replica of the original then what would be the point in even remaking it? This is an hugely entertaining and quite frankly hardcore gore horror that is completely captivating and achieves everything that a modern horror should. The reboot of Evil Dead is a very unique remake because it interprets it in an entirely different, gritty way, which creates an edgy, thrilling effect that I personally love. The acting is also very strong and the general film making (including tension building and special effects) are spectacular.
