Evil Dead Rise Reviews
Tanzim Pardiwalla Filmfare
It’s always good to see a reboot do well. And the latest addition to the Evil Dead franchise, which started with Sam Raimi’s iconic 1981 film The Evil Dead, does exceptionally well.

Evil Dead Rise remains a downright depraved, groovily gory fifth entry in this horror series.

Evil Dead Rise may lack some of the dark comedy of its predecessors, but the tankards of blood and intensity of its horror more than make up for it.

Evil Dead Rise is a return to unpretentious and unrestrained, gore-soaked terror for mainstream horror, bringing the franchise back to be with the maggots, in the best possible way.

Jorge Ignacio Castillo The Canadian Crew
It’s thoroughly tense with genuine hair-raising moments. The movie only falters when it doubles down on the gore at the expense of character development: it wastes an opportunity to pursue more lasting unease as opposed to just temporary thrills.

Evil Dead Rise is certainly a throw back to the good old school style of horror and the result is a film that delivers what horror fans have been calling out for – good old-fashioned gore within a creative story.

Evil Dead Rise is sleekly modern, emotionally gripping, and absolutely brutal, gory and appalling, but still fun. Cronin goes there and goes all the way.

If you'd told me and my friends as we were watching that grainy Thorn EMI Evil Dead videotape that not only would the franchise continue into the 21st century, but it'd actually be thriving, we'd have pelted you with Cool Ranch Doritos.

The action in Lee Cronin’s film moves from the ubiquitous cabin in the woods to an urban setting without losing any of the blood, guts, gore or giggles along the way

Evil Dead Rise packs everything I love about Evil Dead: Grotesque kills blended together with dark humor. I loved every minute of it.

It did a thing that a lot of franchises that get rezooted don't get to do. Which is have fun while also nodding to the past. Because a lot of them get stuck nodding.

Evil Dead Rise is as perfect of an Evil Dead movie you can get in todays climate. A definite improvement over the 2013 re-imagining.

It's a strong entry in a strong franchise. I hope Raimi does the next one.

Evil Dead Rise makes an already-solid horror franchise even stronger and introduces fresh, demented nightmares to the psyche. As the blood flows, the fun seems to have only begun.

Just go with the flow and you’ll be rewarded with one of the most sanguinary and gory films in the whole franchise.

Evil Dead Rise left me wanting more Surely an awesome time in a lot of ways! specifically the third act which goes HARD, but a lot of the film just didn’t give me that magic feeling that the rest of the franchise has

While Evil Dead Rise definitely knows the series it's in, it's no mere exercise in blasting expected targets.

Ryan Oquiza Rappler
Evil Dead Rise retains just enough of the core elements from the original, a touch of the extravagant excess from the previous one, and an over-the-top, devil-may-care attitude that would make PG-13 horror films look like kids' movies
