Evil Dead (April 12th 2013)

[Koul]

No, guys. You're wrong. How am I supposed to believe anything in a horror or slasher movie with terrible acting. Shoddy acting kills the experience, I go to movies to fool myself into believing that what's going on is happening to me, so when I see people getting gutted and butchered and the acting is garbage, I just. I just don't *feel* like I'm getting murdered.

When I saw the masterpiece Titantic, I felt the water on my skin. Yet, when I see Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I just didn't feel like I was getting ground up or my face ripped off... y'know. Horror movies needa step up their game and be more serious.

Chips looks like a straight bitch with this bitch made 'laughing at the plot' shit. Bitch.

I find it sad at some of the reactions in that video didn't even realize that it was Bruce Campbell.

I've seen this movie twice now. Freaking....awesome.

[Xantavia]

I really enjoyed this, but there was just one thing that bugged me at the end.

Spoiler: show

After his sister came back from the dead, she wall all cleaned up and her face was no longer burned. Made the end feel slightly disconnected to me from the rest of the movie.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

so unrealistic

[Xantavia]

I can suspend my disbelief in all sorts of movies, but it just didn't feel like it fit the world the movie created. Everything up to that point had felt like it had a dirty gritty feel to it. When one of the characters suddenly looks like they came from a day at the spa, yeah, I question the realism they created.

[Brill Weave]

so unrealistic

I see what you did there lol

[Xno Kappa]

LOL WOW. Go watch the original Evil Deads.

Does this one have tree rape?

Yeah but it was toned down considerably from the original.

And why the fuck are people expecting Daniel Day-Lewis caliber in a remake of a cult classic which earned its following from the tremendously bad acting lol?

Welp, now I don't need to see the movie as this would be the only thing I'd want.

(thank you)

Because not everyone has seen the original/heard much about this movie. Maybe sometimes people go to see films on a whim with friends. Looking back on it now, even with the perspective of this being satirical, I still don't think it was very good.

No offense but if you are old enough to buy a ticket to this film you should hopefully possess the cognitive ability to deduce that this film was a remake of what is ultimately an 80's horror/camp/B-movie/midnightmovie etc. Classic. Was a remake of this series needed? Probably not. Should you expect amazing acting? Definitely not. Half the reason the original trilogy turned to the humorous side is because the actors weren't the best and the effects were not able to keep up with Sam Raimi's original vision.

I understand that not everyone is a movie buff or even has the time or inclination to keep track of what movies are remakes etc. Even the iTunes page mentions it is a remake.
That said, I agree with Chips.
This movie was not as good as it could have been. They tried to be "serious" with the gore but it just wasn't as good. Plus the one thing this version of the film lacked was a good explanation of the history of the Necronomicon and all the crazy shit surrounding it. I went in really wanting to enjoy this new version but I walked out feeling pretty meh. It wasn't terrible, however it could have been so much more.
