It really wasn't that bad

First thing you 1981 Evil Dead fan-boys need to do before watching this is put away your ridiculous check list and stop comparing it to the original. It is not the original. I'm actually going to go far enough to say (for the first time ever) that the remake was better than the original. Yeah the 1981 one was good and made clever use of budget and effects, but I thought the remake was better. Please don't email me saying "blah blah it had a huge budget, Hollywood garbage blah". In this day and age of technology doing all the work, and watching a bunch of computer people act out movies (ahem, avatar), I truly, truly appreciate the excessive use of make up and practical effects. In my book, that gains a lot of points.
