The Evil just doesn't want to stop.

Rating: 9/10 (5 September 2016)

This is a chilling remake of Sam Raimi's horror classic. A group of friends gather at an isolated cabin deep in the woods for a short vacation that is actually an intervention. Mia (Jane Levy) is being confronted once again about her attraction to drugs. The group is wanting to hold her to her promise of sticking this shot at "cold turkey" to a finish. As insurance or positive assurance will be her brother David (Shiloh Fernandez) being there for the first time in a long time. The cabin is being cleaned up and a basement is found full of rotting animal carcasses; and indications of witchcraft practices.
Mia's withdrawals are not the only thing to cause serious concern and fear. A skin-stitched covered Book of the Dead is discovered. Unknowingly evil demons are summoned, while paranoia and terror consumes the friends and each become victims of horrid deadly possessions. Special effects are sensational and disturbing sequences of bloody, gory violence seem endless. Right when the final credits should be rolling; nooooo the thrills just keep coming.
Kudos to director/co-writer Fede Alvarez. Miss Levy is remarkable. Also in the cast: Elizabeth Blackmore, Lou Taylor Pucci, Jessica Lucas, Jim McLarty, Randal Wilson and Phoenix Connolly. Voice of the Demon: Rupert Degas.
