Evil Dead Rise Ratings & Reviews
- neuroparadox4d agoI get trying something new with a location/environment but if you are going to treat it exactly the same as a cabin in the woods, then you're not really adding anything new other than backdrop. I just feel it was a missed opportunity to do something interesting in the new urban setting....maybe having to fight down the building floor by floor, and each level is some new horror or challenge? I dunno, maybe I have too high of standards set by Evil Dead 2, which I saw when I was 7, and it scared the all the solids (and liquids) out of my body. 💩🟡💦 Still probably one of my earliest memories is watching Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn with my brother and him warning me it will give me nightmares... and him being totally right about that shit 😱 No likes yet
- Kevin WardJuly 3, 2025Evil Dead Rise is a bloody good time at the theater. Alyssa Sutherland’s physical performance and creepy unsettling movements make for an excellent deadite. Plenty of callbacks to the original films as well as the 2013, but at the same time it doesn’t really expand much on the lore or present anything markedly new aside from a location change out of the cabin in the woods and into a decrepit old apartment building. The family dynamic does add a layer of tension to the horrors. It would be much harder to just cut bait and run if it was close family member being possessed; and the weight of that family dynamic is felt throughout thanks to some great performances from all of the young actors. The film is really well shot making good use of the confined location. I really loved the look of the peephole sequences. I loved the cold open sequence. It features a gorgeous shot of an A frame cabin in the woods and a really awesome title card reveal. At the same time though, the opening sequence (and the closing bookend) really doesn’t tie in narratively to anything else. I had a really good time with it. It’s honestly probably my least favorite Evil Dead film, but that’s largely because the bar has been set so high. (Also, I’ve yet to see Army of Darkness). Highly recommend for the horror fans out there. See it in a packed theater, with a great sound sound system.
- AngusMcNutzApril 18, 2025Just a big "Eh..". Serviceable, for the most part, with plenty of the absurd gore you want. Just felt a little long in the tooth for how little actually happens, although that sentiment is probably more representative of the entire franchise itself.
- Ricardo ArandaJuly 25, 2025Boring. I keep waiting for something good to happen but it never does. Characters all make dumb or bizarre decisions. The antagonist is mostly harmless. Not sure how this is even related to the Evil Dead franchise. I guess you just need the book and that's it, you have yourself an evil dead movie.
