A nostalgic take on the original Evil Dead that's known for Jane Levy's act.

Rating: Null/10 (16 August 2013)

When teasers and trailers were just releasing for Evil Dead, I can't imagine how entertaining and gruesome this remake will be when I get to see it in theaters, and by the time I did, I am sort of impressed by it.
Fede Alvarez directed an all-knowing iconic film with the decent selection of actors/actresses who acted surprisingly well with the authenticity they maintain to keep my attention clinging onto the aspects of the movie. The plot is simple: Five people go into a cabin with a dash of evil screwing them up from a book. It's a total horror movie cliché but it was still worth watching. People always complain about the ingenuity that this remake lacks, and I agree with that but in my personal opinion, isn't that what logic and morality comes in to make it real? (aside from some scenes) .-.
The scenes were cunning to an average viewer's sight and I can admit that I lost myself; the screams and jumps that occur during a suspenseful scene just, keeps me cringing on the edge of my seat, it's that scary! The gore was one of the key aspects to make this real and daunting, yet it doesn't do much to increase the ratings from viewers, I mean you can take the hint from watching the trailers and 50 gallons of fake blood, well that was an 'overkill'. :P
Let's not forget Jane Levy's portrayal was what made the movie enjoying, yet cringe worthy to see: The tree vine scene and Demon Mia scene was what let us admire about Jane Levy and her superb acting. Shiloh's acting was yet exceptional to appreciate from some people's perspective, including mine.
Although the marketing on this was mildly misleading: scariest movie ever made, I doubt that, Human Centipede disagrees with that too. It was entertaining, definitely worth the watch, just not worth over $10 to see it.
