Definite Evil Dead Knock Off, but...
7 March 2017
This can be looked at as a direct rip off of The Evil Dead or an homage to it. The voices of the demons most notable, the symbols/sigils, reanimated dead bodies, the cabin in the woods etc. However, it was still enjoyable while not on the same level. The gore was not over CGI and appeared more use of practical special effects for that portion. The story line was OK. They attempted to inject some new ideas, or a new idea (using demons to heal sick loved ones-not a spoiler starts right off that way), into the formula but it really was not a make or break concept even though the film wanted to use that as a reason the demons are conjured up. The acting by some was better than others but nobody was awful yet nobody I am really expecting to see in any quality films. I have been surprised before at people's acting resumes though. Jennifer Aniston from Leprechaun to Friends to Horrible Bosses. She did quite well and who'd thought after any Leprechaun movie any actor would have a chance. Then it just kind of ends. Nothing special. It gets a 5 for decent quality and being better than most Evil Dead or NOTLD rip offs.
