How all remakes should be done.

Rating: 9/10 (11 April 2013)

One of those great remakes that are just as good as the original but without copying it. Instead, It gives it's own flavor and color but always remembers it is still Evil Dead.
This is the movie where TASTES will decide whether the movie is better or worse than the original.
The FILM as a whole, is just fantastic. As a horror film it does everything it's supposed to have. Great dark scenery, great pacing, really cool violence (this includes death scenes and other moments where blood is shed)
And as a REMAKE it does everything right.
Why do you want to see a remake that does EVERYTHING scene by scene like the original???? To see better special effects??? the original effects where fine!! if you are going to make a film that was already made, then you BETTER bring something new to the table.
But you ALWAYS got to stay true to the original. You CANNOT bring something new without respecting the original, and i believe this film did that.
All the beats form the original where there, but they gave it their own twist. all the moments where there, but with their own flavor.
It was like Watching Evil Dead all over again, but as a COMPLETELY NEW EXPERIENCE.
Think of it like this. What if somebody else did Evil Dead instead of Sam Raimi?
That is this film, and THAT is why i think all remakes should be that way. It's a what if scenario, have all the familiar queues but have something new happen.
Totally recommend it
