Mia, a drug addict, is determined to kick the habit. To that end, she asks her brother, David, his girlfriend, Natalie and their friends Olivia (Jessica Lucas) and Eric (Lou Taylor Pucci) to accompany her to their family's remote forest cabin to help her through withdrawal. Eric finds a mysterious Book of the Dead at the cabin and reads aloud from it, awakening an ancient demon. All hell breaks loose when the malevolent entity possesses Mia.

Simply Perfect

FirstWitch

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

So I think the movie is pretty garbage I do not like horror movies is not a secret but I made the Evil Dead movies and so I was very curious how they might look today, with today's facts, today's technology, today's make-up etc but unfortunately the movie does exactly the wrong thing that makes many horror movies today it takes too seriously, wide parts of the movie are completely dark so you can hardly see anything and the brutal scenes are once again cut as ugly as in a hip hop video so that you can not enjoy the full impact and impact of the injury at all, or suffer the pain.What a lot of people will not understand I think it's too good a lot too nice a lot to it yes it's too much with that and the cold drug withdrawal is way too serious that just does not fit into this kind of movie. I want the beginning scene with the father who has to expel the evil from his daughter and because he does not succeed then then shoot. but nothing else absolutely nothing I could not find anything about this movie, nothing in this movie was anything exciting, nothing was funny, nothing was scary and he was not even bored so he would be a good fall asleep just boring in terms of that he has moved and I wondered all the time when this garbage is finally over.I know the movie has its fans but I definitely do not have it I just thought it was disgusting and I'm glad to be left alone with this version of "Evil Dead".

This week I rewatched the original Evil Dead. I like it but I am not the biggest fan of that movie. Last night I came home late and turned on the TV to see the 2013 version. It's a total mess.Acting is bad, CGI is bad for a 2013 movie. The CGI seemed to be pulled out of a PS4 or something. It was no real horror story, just a reshoot of the original with lots of gare, a few minor scares and a whole load of stupidity. Yeah the story is one pile up of stupid actions take by the characters. And the movie was almost unwatchable because everything was filmed so darkly. It was like they tried to hide the cheapness of it all. It's clear that the supposed 14 million budget is not used for filming but for a marketing campaign with trailers and positive reviews on film sites.This movie takes itself too seriously and the gore is overdone. It's like they just tried to shock people with gore and more gore. If you like that, this movies is for you. If you want to see horror, this movie is to be avoided. It uses much of the original movie as a template but they changed some things to make it more serious like the rehab part of why they went to the cabin in the first place. The original was not that serious and that worked much better.

Well , this movie is really something . A friend told me to watch evil dead and i watched this one , not knowing that this was a remake from an older movie . I've gotta say , this movie shocked me the first time i watched it . Usually , movies don't make me sick . but this one managed to do it . Its not as filled with horror as it is with gore , but it works . What annoyed me though , was that the guy (Eric) reads aloud something from the Book of the dead even if it's written in the book not to read anything aloud , bad decision but it's a horror movie , so yeah . From the burned-alive girl in the prologue , Olivia slicing half of her face , Mia slicing her tongue in two by liking a knife , Natalie slincing her infected arm to Mia ripping of her arm from under the car and then slicing the demon in half with a chainsaw , this movie really impressed me , shocked me , made me sick and made me feel the pain of the characters . It's different from the original movie , but i still like it . I would recommend this movie but only to people with a strong stomach .

Don't listen to the haters of this movie. They were too faint to watch it through. I watched the original at 10 years old and it didn't really scare me but honestly. This remake has some truly horrific parts and goid performances from the cast (unlike the original). If you're not into extremely violant movies. Do not watch this. It is vulgarly amazing!! It does deviate from the 80s classic but not enough to do it injustice. A must see for true horror fans.
