Evil Dead Rise: the new film would be ‘shocking’, ‘sadistic’ and ‘dirty’

The Rise of the Evil Dead : a new nightmare in Los Angeles

42 years after Sam Raimi’s first failed and ultra-inventive work, the franchise evil Dead continues. After the series Ash vs Evil Dead and Fede Alvarez’s remake, the nightmare continues The Rise of the Evil Dead.

In this film by Lee Cronin (The only son), produced by Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, will not talk about Ash trapped in a cabin deep in the woods. The film takes place this time in Los Angeles, where Beth (Lily Sullivan) visits her older sister Ellie (Alyssa Sutherland), who is raising her three children alone in a small apartment.

A cramped abode that later becomes the scene of terrifying events the discovery of a mysterious book In the building. A book that awakens demonic entities and has disturbing consequences for Ellie’s behavior, which her family no longer recognizes.

Very enthusiastic initial feedback

Unveiled last January, uncensored trailer promised tetanic and unbearable sequences. Between ripping off a scalp with bare hands, an eye about to be gouged out by a tattoo gun, or even tasting bits of glass, these early images aren’t stingy with chunks of flesh.

A trailer that promises a macabre and ultra-violent spectaclesomething confirmed by the first feedback from viewers who were able to discover the feature film at the SXSW festival. On Twitter, in particular, it is possible to read:

The film carries the spirit of Sam Raimi bringing new ideas. The killings are heartbreaking and will shock even the biggest fans. It’s not as comical as the previous films (…), which sets it apart from the franchise.

The Rise of the Evil Dead it’s mean and disgusting. (…) It remains in the style and tone of the 2013 remake, while offering sharp twists. Lee Cronin offers powerful direction, but it’s Lily Sullivan and Alyssa Sutherland who lead the carnage.

My God, The Rise of the Evil Dead it’s pure carnage! (…) A sadistic vortex, I tremble.

Holy shit. Pure chaos and madness. You are not ready. There isn’t a single bad movie evil Dead.

The Rise of the Evil Dead it is to be discovered in theaters from April 19, 2023.
