One of the better remakes

Rating: 5/10 (3 January 2020)

I didn't watch this as a remake of the original; I watched it as it's own film. And I'm glad I did, because it's a whole different film. It's got the Necronomicon and the deadites, but it's very much it's own film.
I had no expectations for it, but it was a dark and gritty surprise. It didn't rely on jumpscares and it delivered some of the most gory violence I have ever seen in a mainstream movie. It may have bad character choices, but the logic behind it is admirable. Definitely a movie for gore hounds and horror fans only, but it isn't bad, and I could definitely watch it again.
