The eyeball scene is a homage to Bobbie Joe’s scene in Evil Dead 2! I’m so glad they incorporated that into the movie
Ah see I didn’t even pick up on that
Bobbi Jo!!!!! Lol
@@ericzagranis1978 I literally read that in Jake’s voice lol. Personally, I didn’t like the characters all too much but that eyeball scene always cracks me up 😭
@@isaintrovert What an awesome callback! All I thought about was Bobbi Jo 🤣🤣
I saw the punchline of that moment coming in - and I had started laughing even before it happened. Absolutely loved it
Another home run in the franchise! Fingers crossed for a huge sequel with Ash, Beth, and Mia teaming up to kick some deadite ass!!! Make it happen🤘🤘
that would rockkkk
Jane Levy who played Mia won't want to do another. She's said no because being on that set was hellish.
that would be so dope!
@@KholEllsworth money could talk her into it im sure 😊
@@MuddywatermultimediaGroup If Raimi came back maybe that would help too and the fact she's working with Bruce Fucking Campbell!!! 🤣👍
My favorite scene was that primal scream that seemed to last ten seconds. Everything about it was fantastic, the sound in the theater itself, the bathtub water boiling, the mirror cracking, the kids covering their ears, the neighbors hearing the yell, and even the plant next to the mirror shaking. It''s the dead have arrived scene, telling the audience here I am and here we go. Loved it!
Alyssa Sutherland's voice manipulation was beautiful 🔥 legit creepy. I had fun w/ this one.
That was the best title card I've ever seen in my life and that's a long life of watching movies also I've never been a fan of this franchise but this movie has definitely convinced me to go back and watch all the older ones and the remake and I can't wait to see it again really awesome flick for sure 9/10 for me great video 👍
Nice! We’re in the same boat
The 2013 one is so much better
I remember seeing the 2013 remake and witnessing how bloody nasty and violet it was. I will say Evil Dead Rise is pretty close.
“Youll be a good mother some day…youre good at lying to kids” is a killer line too.
I think my favorite part of this movie is how they brought back the way the Deadites play with their food. There wasnt much of that in the 2013 version, and I think it changes the texture. The Deadites in 2013 would say messed up things, sure, but it was messed up stuff to say to any character. The Deadites in this movie say and do specific things that get into specific characters heads.
Example: The reason that parasite line hits so hard is twofold…1) its such a hooooooorrrible thing to hear your mother say to you, but more importantly 2) It was pretty subtle, but they did lay down the groundwork that the kids actually felt like they were a burden. Hearing the Deadite version call back to that is so pointed and, like, ouch.
It’s actually pretty commendable how much groundwork they were able to establish in such a short period of time. We spend, what, 15 minutes with the family as normal people? And there are callbacks. The script is SO lean.
……aside from the stupid wraparound….
Full agree!
I did love the title reveal during the wraparound though. Glad they released it in the Theater!
@@stevemuzak8526 thats kinda what im worried about. The way I read it….thatd mean the implication is that now Its Out And Its Gonna Get Everyone? That would turn it into a giant world, and ultimately make it just another Zed-Word movie. Evil Dead works best because of the confines, you know?
Besides that, in much the same way 28 Days Later put a spin on the Zed-Word movie by making them FAST (i know it wasnt the first to do so, but it was the breakout), the Deadites biggest way to distinguish themselves from Romero-style Zed-words is, in my opinion, that they talk.
Not only that, but they have almost-prescient levels of insight. Especially since they appear to retain the memories of the previous lives and can mess with people psychologically based on that. The people closest to you can say the most horrible things to you.
That doesnt work if its a worldwide thing. You need to spend some time with the characters to learn about them so that youll know why whatever Deadite X says to them is so messed up. Cf the stuff they say about pregnancy and motherhood in this movie. Its a Miggs vs. Lecter thing, if you can dig.
Though if they go the other route and stick with the cabin….that triangle shaped cabin by the lake is a pretty cool setting for an old school Evil Dead … the lake alone could be cool.
I dunno, but I feel like its in good hands!
@@CoolAsianGuy this was months ago but i stand by it. Its a great line.
LINE!
LINE!
People in movies dont talk like people in real life and they say clever things we wished we thought of.
I still think it’s a cool line? You dont? Idk, I’ve provided the reasoning behind an alternate perspective which you can accept or reject.
I am willing to hear you out for reasonable discussion, and actually legitimately interested because theres a whole other side of the argument I thought about and fell to one side. It spreads thru al Evil Dead stuff and is an interesting theory with branches that vary based on a number of factors, both in universe and meta.
Buuutt…..If youre juat a contrarian or a troll, idk, im too old and youre not good at it. Lets have a discussion or leave this creator’s comment section alone, eh?
Thanks to you, I have become more interested in horror, and I will now be forever traumatised after watching this movie. Good job!
Oh noo hahaha
Give the 2013 film a look.
The cabin scene could’ve been cut but the way she came out the water and then the Title in the background..that was lit 🔥. But I definitely did enjoy the film and it had a good amount of homage to different horror films.
Holy Moly the fact that a crossover with the surviving members of each timeline in the franchise is even being tossed around in the first place has me all hot and bothered. Hope it happens and that I'm still around to witness such glory! Would be wonderful to get some closure to the canceled too-soon Ash Vs Evil Dead. Hopefully, Pablo and Kelly would be in it as well.
God. I’m still so pissed we don’t know what happened to Pablo and Kelly
Great in-depth review as always! Evil Dead is in competition with Child’s Play as my favorite horror franchise. It is one of the few franchises I’m a fan of that I consider to be a “perfect franchise”, and by that I mean that from its inception in 1981 with the original film to now in 2023, this franchise has always maintained a consistent level of quality with each new entry, and I feel that’s largely because the same general creative team has been onboard throughout the entire franchises history, while also simultaneously finding NEW talent in the industry like Lee Cronin to helm these projects. I thought Evil Dead Rise was an excellent film, and I hope we eventually see an Evil Dead Rise DLC chapter in Evil Dead: The Game (If they do that, they gotta have the cheese grater & Staffany as weapons 😂)
A fun little Easter Egg I wanna share, and this gets into spoiler territory, so if you haven’t seen the film yet, don’t continue reading: Bruce Campbell was in the movie. He plays a VERY small part; during the scene where Morgan Davies character is playing the phonographs of the priests in 1923 who are in possession of the third volume of Naturom Demonto, as the main priest is proposing reading the incantations in the book, Bruce Campbell’s voice can be heard among the crowd of priests warning them not to recite the incantations, shouting “It’s called the book of the dead for a reason!”. Lee Cronin has stated that Bruce Campbell’s voice cameo was intentional & planned from the beginning, and considers him to be a time displaced Ash Williams in 1923.
Omg I love that fun fact
This was easily one of my favorite theater experiences with a horror movie in a very long time.
It was so much fun. Just like all of them, it’s insane and brutal but in a tongue in cheek kind of goofy way. Can’t wait for more 🤘🖤
Didn’t even realize that somebody was trans, not that it really matters to me, but damn it proves your point how they just let the story flow and not try to forcefully include a line to show that they have a trans character. as a horror fan and evil dead fan, I’m so glad they nailed it and paved the way for future iterations and hopefully let creative minds loose on this franchise as you wonderfully stated! Such a great time to be a horror fan.
My first thought when he appeared in the movie was, "That's a pretty boy."
The fact that there was no lines about it, made me think the character isn't trans
Wich like, i find amazing that we are at a point that trans actors don't need to play a trans character, they can just play an character
💯
YES YES I can’t wait to rewatch and own this movie ! What a time to be a fan ! Omgggg a reunion of Mia and Beth would be iconic ! I loved the gore so damn much , although I think they overhyped the cheese grater . Excited for your breakdown and now im hyped to check the original trilogy and even the series lol
I love Evil Dead but I understand why it's not everyone's cup of tea I think you'll really like Army of Darkness tho that one is more fantasy horror and is actually my favorite one Ash is at his best
I’m so excited to finally watch that one!
Army of Darkness has a lot of rewatch value
Evil Dead possessing a group of 1800s priests would be SO GOOD!
The Industrial Revolution dead 🤘🏼😩
Loved the intro. Loved the sound design and the photography. Loved the cast and the dialogues. 8.5/10
Such a good review. This movie was the most fun with horror I've had in ages, and you're absolutely right about the sound design. It begs to be heard in theatres. I was that weird kid in the mid 90's that made all of his friends watch the first three movies and I could never have imagined we'd get such an excellent, fucked up, fun as hell movie now. Glad ya liked it, Cheers!
Went in with no expectations, left absolutely blown away... It's a 10
I loved this movie. The gore was effective, it was funny, and had a great theme. I loved the theme of motherhood and questioning whether or not you want it and doubting that you’ll be good enough.
I felt so bad for the mother in this film! She seemed like such a good person, only for her to brutalized and possessed the way she was. I teared up multiple times throughout this movie. I also imagined myself in the situation. The pure primal instinct and adrenaline you would feel as the urge to pretty young ones takes over you. I fucking loved this movie.
Yeah I honestly couldn’t have said it better than you did. Love all the homages to the past installments. And I think this did a good job of reinventing and creating a fresh look to a well loved franchise.
PS I love your improv 😂
Noted!
Damn, I must have watched a different movie to you and everybody in the comments. I thought it was distinctly average. At best. I get that franchises move on and all that but this was a million miles away from everything that I love about ED and turned it into just another horror film with contact lenses and smiles. I find it mad that people are saying they're huge fans of the franchise and love this movie, because it's SO out of place. Thoroughly disappointed.
Totally agree, I just watched it today I was expecting to be not petrified, but maybe slightly unnerved as some people have said they were sitting uncomfortably all all the way through.
I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but it’s definitely a very average movie. Nothing that I haven’t seen before the bath scene was slightly creepy, but other than that I’ll forget this movie when I wake up tomorrow morning .
Loved the review! As a diehard fan of the franchise, I loved Rise. Also, if you'd like to get more into Evil Dead, I highly recommend Bruce's autobiography "If Chins Could Kill," it made me an Evil Dead superfan.
He wrote a book?? That’s right up my alley
This was my most anticipated film this year and it delivered
Same
I just realized. This one killed kids, and the last one killed a dog, that’s kinda fucked but also cool to me how they both did one of the no-no’s😂
it might’ve killed a cat too… we don’t know what happens to the cat in the vent that possessed ellie went through to get to beth
i liked this movie a lot imo better than 2013 evil dead but by very lil im wondering if this set up a sequel
To me its the same problem with the exorcist believer. You can do throwbacks, put in elements and introduce familiar things, it doesnt mean you capture the heart of the franchise.
Rise is trash imo. The characters are uninteresting, their choices horrible, there is 0 story, and the whole book introduction came across as random and lazy, as if they didnt know where to go with the whole thing. Maybe if they gave more substance and hints of the book being the cause seeking to unleash, it would do more to me.
Did it had interesting ideas? Yeah. I liked the nail on the lp with the deadite functioning as a mouthpiece. Same as with the chewing on the glass and showing it poking through the skin. That brought up a reaction for me.
13:09 I would disagree here, and say that there is NO place for the second type of marginalized representation. I actually find it disgusting when a marginalized actor from the queer community is represented just so a director “unpack” or preach to me. Hollywood has shown that the only way to do this is in a condescending manner. I believe that this is type of representation is destructive & counter-productive.
I want to see these same groups just being good characters in a film - like this one! If I wanted to be preached to, I’d go to church or talk to a political activist.. I will probably need some church time after this movie. Lol
2013 one was so much better. I was bored through most of this. I was so hyped for this movie and was let down.
Yeah... the cheese grater was overwhelming... thought it was gonna be a smidge more brutal since they made it a fright rags shirt
My first exposure to Evil Dead was Army of Darkness when I was a child and I had no idea it was related to the original Evil Dead! Evil Dead 2 made me a fan!
Awful movie , shouldn't have been called evil dead
This movie had so many moments that will live in my head for a while. I think I want to see it again too
I loved the part when the kid ran past the peep hole and got thrown into the wall I was lmao
I wish we could get a perfect conclusion for Ash vs Evil Dead in a season 4 and closes Ash's story
And now we could all move on
I saw 2 Evil Dead movies in 2013 and I remember in 2000, when I was 11 my parents let me watch Alien (1979). I also remember seen Hollow Man (2000) for VHS. When I think about it, I had no chance to see The Evil Dead (1981) in 2000, because it's really not for 11 years olds.
Rise was amazing but the 2013 movie still remains supreme for me
Only got into this franchise 3 years ago but i loved every second of them all and this new one was great too
The best part of your videos is definitely the bits of personality you let shine through. Subscribing !
"Maybe I do wanna be her little maggot"
Mommy's with the maggots now is the new YOU'LL FLOAT TOO
Bruce Campbell was right we could definitely smell greatness with this movie, also this thumbnail 😂😅
As much as I liked this movie, I still think the 2013 installment is better. It's certainly scarier, in part to how grotesque things get, but this movie did have a good personal story to it.
“Cgi blood is for squares” Yea Bruce has the best t-shirt quotes ever no doubt.
This movie was a really enjoyable addition to the franchise. It wasn’t perfect, but it was solid and had it’s great moments.
The only negative I have with "Evil Dead Rise" was that we didn't get a good look at the final boss monstrosity(or deadite Voltron lol), it was always in dark lighting or cut aways. It would've been more impactful if we seen the John Carpenter's the Thing looking creature. That aside, I actually loved the film, i left the theater happy on opening night.
Definitely agree! "Deadite Voltron" 😂😂😂 brilliant!
Slipknot fans meet the Cult of the Haunted Hippie!
Sucks this got me back into the franchise too and then I find out Ash vs Evil Dead is leaving Netflix in just a few days fffff
I know ugh I wanted to start watching that 😭 terrible timing
Spoiler alert but technically they already planted seeds for that crossover. When they’re listening to the recording, the priest mentions it was one of three volumes of the necronomicon. 3 volumes. Ash’s book, Mia’s book, and now Beth’s book
😮
I've always loved the Evil Dead franchise. One of my best author friends was actually an extra in Army of Darkness, which is awesome. It's fantastic that you loved this enough to go back and join the cult. As always, I loved your dissection and thoughts on the film. Also, your improvisations are hilarious and anyone that says otherwise is a square.
Hahahah fair enough
I felt that the peephole scenes were an homage to Silent Hill 4 the game in which a character is isolated within the apartment and witnesses strange events in the hallway through the limited view of the peephole. If it turns out that it wasn’t, it’s still an interesting part of the movie.
Just saw this last night ( double bill with Renfield…also awesome ).
It’s another win for the franchise…is this the most consistent franchise out there? Probably.
Juicy gore but again I’ve gotta stop watching trailers as a lot was spoiled. Maybe I’ll learn some day. Lol. It’s nicely shot, a lot of Raimi-isms in the camera work which was great to see. Nice practical effects which is an absolute must for me with a film like this…I’m looking at YOU Thing remake!
The kids were actually pretty solid and not at all annoying which was refreshing. The ending with the melding Deadites was great…reminded me of that Oats Studios short film, the one with the monster of many parts.
One thing I was wondering during the opening scene…is it lore breaking? Because the Deadite was around in bright sunlight…I always thought Deadites couldn’t survive in direct sunlight…although Ash does shoot down that flying Deadite in AOD and it’s daylight but cloudy if I remember right ( been a while ).
If I had to rate this it would be 4th in the franchise. Behind 1, 2 and the 2013 reboot…it’s not quite nasty enough to top the 2013 film but it’s still very solid and well worth seeing on the big screen 👍
I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but it’s definitely a very average movie. Nothing that I haven’t seen before the bath scene was slightly creepy, but other than that I’ll forget this movie when I wake up tomorrow morning .
this is my introduction to Evil Dead franchise and I'm hooked.
good thing about this movie is they didn't try to be progressive. Danny looks sus for me at first, I'm asking if danny is a male or female because danny looks like a female, then i googled and I'm right, she's a female. good thing they didn't make it about her gender.
"The cabin scene felt a bit redundant to me" - Yeah, kind of agree. It made for one hell of a title drop though!
Edit: Oh, you actually say that, too, in your video. Well, glad we agree then! :)
Omg if we get a crossover with all three survivors with all three books that would be a dream
The sound design...& the suspense... especially in that opening...i got some gripes, but it's minimum
This movie was fucking amazing! Loved the maggot mommy
Mommy is with the maggots now. 😅 I am excited about watching this new Evil dead movie.
This is one of my fav horror films I've seen in a while. My first Evil Dead too. Also, glad I found this channel because of Evil Dead Rise!! I'm like on a horror binge...even made a Google Docs of films to watch and 95% of them are horror/horror adjacent
Sorry, no Bruce, no Juice (ok, just liked the sound of that, I will secretly check this one out,especially since Bruce gave his blessing)
Btw, could you review the tv show, it's so good, even better than the movies.
Evil Dead fan here. Respect to all your past takes on the franchise. I'm just here to say that it feels nice to have you sit with us on the Necronomicouch.
P.S. Your reviews are excellent. All of them.
Hahaha Aw thanks!!
Personally I prefer the 2013 version way more, but Evil Dead Rises was still entertaining. I just wish it had less of a generic story and more memorable supporting characters
I love evil dead, meaning the franchise in it's entirety. But ever since the remake I've preferred the more serious toned evil dead. The gory, violent, metal as fuck evil dead. It just works better imo. Subjective I know but evil dead is the only possession/demon film to do it right. Deadites are scary as hell and should be treated as such. This film was literally hand made for fans like me. Give me more evil dead without comedy. And I need to give credit to the actress who played the mom, don't know her name but Dam, great performance.
I enjoy watching your video's! You do such a great job and i often have the same opinion like you. Keep on! Thank you 🎉
I just started watching your content (which is incredible) but I wanted to talk about the fact that someone brought a literal baby to see this movie when I went to see this movie and felt like you would find this funny as well 😅
I loved evil dead rise but I really wish they would stop filming evil dead stuff in New Zealand. You can tell its not filmed in North America and the actors accents slipped sometimes. They would get way more out of their budget if they filmed in Canada considering the dollar exchange and its less travel if they filmed in Canada like Scream 6 did. Makes zero sense to travel all the way to new zealand to film.
So you are new to Horror?
I enjoyed the movie, I totally understand their choices of leaving the cabin location and the new characters, love that. Something about the Tone was off to me. For me it lacked the relentless creepiness that the OG offered with the sound effects and voices. For me the 2013 entry felt more like an evil dead movie.
I just knew the mom from Vikings
When I got the chance to go and see this film early I fell in love with it even before the film started I knew I will love it also those pictures of you are now my wallpaper ‘mummy is with the magots’
I liked it , got to sneak in like a teen and it was the funnest night I’ve had in years !!! Lol
I mean, I gave it a 1 star, because it's really not a movie for me, but the one liners were great and I laughed a lot. I wish I was part of the crowd to love Evil Dead but I'm glad people are enjoying it!
I like the movie though... But still, 2013 is my favorite.
Good review. Well written. Subbed. I did no research on this movie, and had no idea that they were both Aussies. I agree with the actress that she just has a huge gaping maw, and, in of itself, is creepy.
So glad this got a theatrical release. Prey got done dirty, evil dead fans won’t stand for that bullshit
Evil Dead Rise the best Horror Movie 2023 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
How dare you give me a crush on you with your quirky antics. I subscribed, but I am super pissed about it. 😡🤓
Evil Dead Rise is the coolest and most visually beautiful Evil Dead movie, but that doesn't make it the best Evil Dead movie.
Great call out on the representation. You kind of lose me a little in a movie where the representation feels like "LOOKY! LOOK!! LOOK! WE HAVE A GAY! WE SO PROGRESSIVE!" This one... it was a character. That's great. Loved this movie.
!!!!
💯
While this was a one time watch for me, i liked the scene she jumps on gabe and she keeps trying that bite attempt while he somehow doesnt fall over moving into the hallway. That overhead shot lf her is *chefs kiss* though.
Alyssa Sutherland deadite look reminds me of the hot unalived woman from 13 ghost
Great review. Sutherland is an actress that can't wait to see more of. Also, RIDICULOUS that they test screen completely unfinished films.
I’ve been waiting for this one! Turn it up! 🎉
The cheese grater reminded me of New Jack, a wrestler who used a cheese grater in the ECW promotion in the late 1990s. Yeah I’m old lol
I like the way you talk about movies.
I'm happy to be a maggot!!!
😱😱😱
Great video!! I love this movie omg.
I enjoyed the film apart from the couple next to me just talking all the way through it
listening to a conversation between Lee Cronin and Colin Farrell would cure all illness 😭
Omg would pay to see that
"Join my cult." LOL The most direct cult leader ever.
Im not a big horror fan but I actually liked it because I can actually see whats going on😂
Saw this in one of swedens biggest theater in Stockholm and the sound there was so f*****g good and awesome. It was an intense ride thanx to the sound design and sound effects. Nice that you brought up the sound design in this review Kylie. 🙂🙂
Or like someone clinging of the rights to the Hellraiser franchise lol
Alyssa Sutherland really should be considered to play Poison Ivy in a DC movie. Cause that's who I could visualize her as🤯🥰🥀
The tone is not the same. It's just gore without imagination or creativity. It's just dead and you keep giving cash for it.
What a good review. I’ve always been a fan of Bruce Campbell. I have seen the Evil Dead movies. Army of Darkness my favorite. This one was just pure fun. Well worth it. Can’t wait to see it on my 4K Atmos system at home.
Such a great movie cant wait to go see it again ‼️ these new evil dead films are brutal and i love it
Haven't seen the movie yet. Be interesting to see why there is a chainsaw in an apartment building.
I’m 37 and have been a hardcore Deadite since 14 when I bought the entire (then) trilogy on VHS… and only made it through the first one because it messed me up so much 😅.
I really enjoyed Evil Dead Rise because I feel like it captures more of the wild, creative moments that I like so much from the series. All of the elevator stuff, Ellie using her fingernail to play the record and the fused deadite at the end were all the kind of touches I felt the 2013 movie lacked. That movie, for me, feels a little too grounded and serious. I love how so much of the Evil Dead franchise feels like people going “wouldn’t it be cool if _____?” and then they make some wild moment work. Evil Dead Rises feels, to me, like a return to that, and I couldn’t be happier.
This!! 100%
@@HauntedHippie I hope your post-Rise excitement leads you to Evil vs. Evil Dead. It’s easily the wildest the franchise ever gets. More than anything, I think it nails pacing. Thirty-ish minutes a pop, which is what most of the episodes run, is the perfect time to spend with the show. Never dull and often leaving you wanting more. It never takes itself seriously; it’s just pure horror fun. I’m pretty sure the entire series on Blu-ray or DVD is pretty cheap too.
Alyssa was awesome! She. Put. In. Work.
Recent dad with a powerhouse mom - we are both early 30's. Having a kid is fck'n dope! Loads of work, stressful, tiring, expensive.. but it's wonderful. Not saying everyone should etc. but just my experience and bit of life.
Love to hear it!!
