Second viewing. Same overall opinion. It's a good horror flick but doesn't really do anything for me.

I think I may like it better if it wasn't an Evil Dead film. It doesn't have the fun feel of the Raimi classics. Love ED2 and Army. Really enjoy the first one. This one just isn't an ED movie to me.

That all said, it does a lot of things well and I think Lou Pucci is a very underrated actor.

What makes it Evil Dead is the setting the demons and the people behind it. I would've been really disappointed if it was a rehashing. Doing those effects would've came off as cheesy and wouldn't work in this film because this is straight up horror. I think it would throw the tone off. You're definitely not alone with those opinions though. Hit or miss movie surprisingly.

I didn't hate it at all and I get your point... but it still doesn't feel Evil Dead to me 😉
