Evil Dead Rise (2023)

‘Evil Dead Rise’ is a bloody good night out at the cinema. Director Lee Cronin channels Sam Raimi but puts his own stamp on the horror story with a new setting and fresh family dynamic.Sam Raimi’s ‘The Evil Dead’ remains a much-cherished entry in the horror genre, even though the director himself effectively remade it with 1987’s even more well-regarded sequel (technically a requel) ‘Evil Dead II’, which had a (slightly) boosted budget and even more gory action featuring his friend, muse and –– frequently –– on-screen punching bag Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams.
