In the much anticipated remake of the 1981 cult-hit horror film, five twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.
I hated the first film, it had such a raw feeling... I sadly think that the new version might be too over the top and ruin what made the '81 film a success. Alas that is why some of the remakes do so poorly, is that we fans of the originals cannot be fooled.

The original was a classic but it's very dated now.
ReplyDeleteYou hated the first one? It was very raw, and done as a straight horror flick (which is why the humor of Evil Dead II was a vast improvement) but I wouldn't say I disliked it.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing Oz, sad to say, Raimi has lost his magic touch, his unique way of film making.
extremely scary, somebody please hold me.....
ReplyDeleteI don't remember the first one, and today's horror doesn't much interest me. Or, that is, I have yet to see a good modern horror film.
ReplyDeletePS: I didn't like that Wonder Woman, and don't even get me started on her headband being upside down.
