Evil Dead Rise is the new installment in the Evil Dead franchise. Featuring a new setting, new characters, and gory kills this movie more than fits in with the franchise.
The good in this movie for starters is Alyssa Sutherland. She was amazing. Her role was not only terrifying but uncomfortable as she plays a mother who tries to attack her children. Lilly Sullivan is also very good as the lead in the movie and her arc throughout the film I thought was very well done. The kids are also great in the movie, really great moments between Lilly Sullivan and Nell Fisher. The setting is also used very well, it's a nice change of pace. The gore is of course great. It's very bloody and creative and while not as bloody as the 2013 remake, it's still got a few bloody thrills. The cinematography is also great. It's very well shot and the lighting sets the mood well. And finally the tension is this movie was great. It's so anxiety inducing that I loved it.
I hardly have any negatives to say aside from an ending that tries to connect to the beginning that honestly felt a little unnecessary, but it was still fine.
Aside from that, Evil Dead Rise is a bloody good time. It's bloody, scary, fast paced, and very entertaining. This could be my new favorite of the franchise.
