This is the first Evil Dead movie that I\’ve seen that wasn\’t by Sam Rami, but Lee Cronin captured a few of Rami\’s old tricks so well that I had to look it up to be sure. I skipped the previous film in the franchise, which was apparently fine, as there\’s no connection between the two, The story is nice and small with only about 9 people in total in the film, not counting the spooky voices on the record player. The tone of the film is right in line with all the other Evil Dead flicks, but I do dearly miss the cheesy that Bruce Campbell would bring to the screen, as there are no real humorous parts to this one, just gore, horror, and more gore.
