The remake wasn't bad. But nothing beats the original.

The remake just isn't rewatchable.
It just has PAINFUL moments instead of scary moments.
Do I feel like rewatching a guy getting hit with a crowbar 50 times by a deadite just standing there or watching girl cut off/rip of her arm? Ehh not particularly. I did feel bad for them, but not like I did with Ash. I like the dreamlike nightmarish quality of the original.
Sam Raimi has a way of doing gore and horror in a fun way. Really kinetic and energetic.
Drag Me to Hell is a good example of how Raimi with modern technology still creates a superior version of Evil Dead.
I liked elements of the Alverez, like his interpretation of the Tree Scene, and his over all rainy aesthetic...but he didn't give the whimsy and mania of Raimi. Which is sad because the effects looked so great. Imagine if Remake focused more on the creativity of the horror. The bathroom scene was also interesting, and the Mia Demon from the other side was a fun bit, but it didn't break new ground and focused on the wrong stuff.
Cabin in the Woods is a better Evil Dead reboot.
Really pushed the genre into a new direction.

Cabin in the Woods is a better Evil Dead reboot. Really pushed the genre into a new direction. The remake had this sort of unrelenting brutality designed to desensitize audiences. The violence was like hardcore pornography in the ugliest way possible. And it didn't have that surreal quality. And no bizarre originality. Not even any genius camera technicality. If a film has all that then the characters can be poorly written as a child's matchstick men and still pull it off. The Mad Max films have a very loose bunch of characters, all based on physical attibutes, for example, but have a highly-stylized or bizarre quality. The Evil Dead Remake did not have any of this. |
