What a waste of time and money ...

Rating: 3/10 (24 May 2013)

I love the original, I love Evil Dead II and I was pretty eager to see this flick. "Most shocking ... bla, bla, bla", OK, I don't care for the stunts the marketing guys try to pull off.
After 30 minutes I thought: "Hmm, when does it start?" After 60 minutes I thought: "Let's hope for the best ..." After 90 minutes I thought: "Damn, what a waste." I wasn't shocked, I was as bored as watching a commercial for a hardware store. Hammer, nails, chainsaw - you name it, they are all in there. What else? Characters I did not care for, gore that was gore for gore's sake, a funny demon straight from The Ring and annoying music.
No jokes, no over-the-top-humor, no fast pace action, nothing evil.
Sorry, Mr. Raimi, I cannot believe you liked that movie.
Next time, let Peter Jackson do a low budget remake. I guess that would rock.
Case closed.
