Evil Dead Rise

Movie / Stroller / One-on-One

The Evil Dead “franchise” (God, how we hate that term!) has wandered all over the map in plot, tone, and mythology, from energetically terrifying (like Evil Dead 2) to wonderfully goofy (like Army of Darkness) to consistently enjoyable, if not exactly groundbreaking (like Ash vs. Evil Dead). And though Evil Dead Rise has little or no direct connection to the plot of characters of the core story or the 2013 remake, it has some of the same manic energy and gleeful gore of the core films — a welcome return to form.

Now we’ve got at least three separate Evil Dead ‘threads’ that could continue: Ash’s original and continuing adventures (Come on, Bruce! More!) … whatever happens next to ** of the 2013 remake … and now the ‘mother and daughter team (we know, we know) of deadite-destroyers from Evil Dead Rise. And we want it all.
