Matter of taste

Rating: 7/10 (2 July 2013)

Thing is,movie style is just like music. Some like country and some like dubstep. Are either of the styles bad? No, there is audience for both. Same goes for this movie. To some it might not be as good as original while to others it might be worth a watch. To some viewers gore is more within realm of reality than a cut off hand running around making noises and showing middle finger. Don't get me wrong i enjoyed Evil Dead 1-2 but i like this one as well.
On to good and bad.
Good: I did like idea about why the group met in the cabin, i think it plays to the audience quite well and character development is quite good. If you have vivid imagination and get invested in movies then you will know what i mean. Effects were pretty good, possessed looked apart and had decent script. Gory parts were realistic to extent. Overall it was quite a ride.
Bad: Quite a few loopholes in the script. Some of the things didn't make much sense. I feel like they could bother some people while others can look past it.
Final thought: Difference in taste of movies and styles within them make this movie 50/50. Some love it some hate it. Either are wrong, it's all about what entertains you. If you enjoy gore and some decent special effects then you will have fun. If you hate gore and like more suspenseful and chilling movie with a smart twist then this is not for you.
