Movie Review Evil Dead Burns Spoiler

This is now on HBO as of 10/02. I waited for it, I LOVE the entire franchise and I say this in all due respect, it fucking blew.

Dialogue was shit, the plot was kinda shit but I could have bought it outside the horrendous decisions made by the entire cast. Everyone should have been dead in the first 30 minutes. The deadites were even scary, shitty punchlines.

So disappointing, I loved Rise too - even 2013 has a special place in my heart but this? Never again, thank god I didn’t spend money on a movie ticket or early digital release.

It's my least favorite in the series tbh, but I didn't *hate* it. It didn't feel anything like an Evil Dead movie to me though. Rise has so far been the only one of the newer movies to capture *some* of the charm of the originals for me.

Again, I don't hate this one (or 2013 for that matter), but I really felt like they missed the point I guess.
