Review of Evil Dead Rise (2023) by Isthishorror — 29 Apr 2023
Only good thing about this movie is the gore, its similar to TWD.
The bad:
Jump scares predictable, many already used movie tropes like woodchipper (DP2), eye torn out of face (TWD), creepy smiles (IT), Crawling on the roof (Exorcist), person stabbed but keeps going (Scream), Car gets stuck (literally every Jump scare movie), Crawling around the car (JP1). Also it sets up things that it doesn't use, like it gets a long shot of a vault, why is the vault there? Why do we forget it exists after its scene? What about Room 27 or 28 was it? That's how forgettable it is because it wasn't used, why have it in if you arent going to use it? if you load a gun you sure as hell should use it. instead the characters fluff around for half an hour trying to open it only to hop in the elevator? that we know is dangerous. What idiot would hop into a destroyed elevator if they've been told/seen its dangerous? Maybe room 28 could have been something worse but nope, ElEvaTor I gO IN nOw CoS DAh? If I wanted a comedy I'd watch this again, cos its similar to every other "scary movie" that tries to hard. I've been scammed, and I'm dissapointed that all the tension that could have been. Immediately released.
