EVIL DEAD (2013)

Evil dead a 2013 remake of a 1981 classic horror movie. So did the advantages of the modern technological movie making improvements blow the old classic horror movie out of stadium. The short and confusing answer is not really, the premise was similar a group of friends go to a remote cabin for a holiday retreat and stumble onto the book of the dead and decide its a good idea to read from it which some how manages to raise the dead and bring demons out to play and posses their closest friends. Once the shit hits the fan a lot of  messy deaths with pop up surprises and you clinching onto your safety blanket for comfort and shelter from the surprise scary scenes that do just that surprise you. Yes its a great way of getting rid of hick ups , but this remake just felt like it was doing too much over kill. One death would happen and you didn't have much time to mourn the lost star because the next death was just around the corner. From scary to corny, Faster than you could say what the fcuk ? did the movie start to remind of the old horror classics where a woman wearing hardly anything would be running away from danger and then fall over a branch to get caught from whatever was chasing her. The moment it decided to change the leading star role it felt that it had to make everyone else stupid and the new leading star smart and brave. A disappointment remake because of its rushed story but thumbs up for special affects and atmosphere. By atmosphere, I mean gore, they're was a lot of it. Watch it to compare to the classic and see how bells and whistles don't always make for a better movie experience.
