Evil Dead Rise Review

Review of Evil Dead Rise (2023) by screenqueeen: 👍 3.5/5

Good evil fun. Waited for this to get truly mean-spirited but it never quite tipped over that way. I appreciate that it's an EVIL DEAD 2 for Cronin but with a focus on the grotesque more than its inherent humor. I wasn't expecting to be so into these radiant queer deadites however, so if anything that makes me feel proud.

Also I thought it was a neat little touch that Danny didn't have a 78 rpm setting on their turntable, making it faster manually gave way to the sound design lending the recording's demonic properties.
