This Is Not Horror

Rating: 1/10 (23 September 2013)

I love horror films. Horror films should be smart, convey a sense of dread, make you care about what happens to the characters, and simply scare the crap out of you. Jaws is a horror film. Alien is a horror film. The Exorcist is a horror film. The Shining is a horror film.
Evil Dead 2013 is not a horror film. It is a splatter fest with blood and body parts everywhere. It is not the least bit scary. We could care less what happens to the characters because they are all idiots. I am not going to compare it to the original because there's simply no point. The original had all the horror devices that this one does not.
Do yourself a favor, pay attention to the one star reviews, this film deserves nothing more than that.
