EVIL DEAD (1981)

Evil dead was a classic horror flick that came out in 1981, It propelled the horror genre into a new undiscovered direction and pushed the limits of gore which made it stand out. But as the new remake was just released, it entices you to re-watch the original classic horror movie to see how it compares to the latest edition. Now with modern day technology improvements special effects that immerse the viewer into a more believable world, you can not help but to compare the original horror to what we have grown to expect from horrors of our current times. With the transgression of movies, so do our own expectations of movies change with the times. What we grew up to think was one of the scariest movies we would have ever watched has now transformed to a crappy movie, even if we ignored the shameful special effects it is hard to ignore the many flaws in the storytelling. Depth in the story is one way to hold the audience and keeps your attention focused on following the story. The classic Evil Dead lacked everything that is now considered a must formula for the making of a good and successful movie. This movie was good then but lacks the endurance to hold its own to the tests that we put on a successful movie for today's times. A crap on film that can not stand the test of time, avoid at all costs and save yourself the reminiscent ride of nostalgia. Leave those fond memories of your old favourites in the past where they can not hurt your new expectations.

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.
