The horror film we needed. Despite the naysayers, Evil Dead delivers bloody gore and then some. Get one thing straight: this type of horror movie will absolutely NOT be for everyone. If you like roller coasters, fun houses, and haunted hayrides, this film is for you. If you're looking for thought provoking, art-house horror or ghostly creepiness, look elsewhere. I'm tired of the current horror fare. You can keep your Sinister and Paranormal Activity. Rob Zombie's poor attempt at imitating Argento? Give me a break.
The headlong jump into a bloody rabbit hole that is Evil Dead is exactly what fans of old school gore have been waiting for. This is the most fun I've had in a theater since The Cabin In The Woods.
I'm a huge fan of the original material and have no idea how anyone who loves them as much as I, given the current state of American horror cinema, would use this opportunity to stroke their own egos by trashing it. Are you kidding me? I should note that I'm a fan of Hatchet, Cabin Fever, Maximum Overdrive, Demons, and Jason m#@!f*%king Voorhees, but also of The Beyond, Susperia, and Let Sleeping Corpses Lie.
You can't go wrong with Evil Dead if you're in it for a good time. Get Some.

Joe Berlinger set out to make a film with a different feel than what the studio twisted Book of Shadows into, but the end result is nothing to throw in the trash bin. I would love to experience a true Director's Cut and wonder if it would have been as memorable, because Book of Shadows, as it is, is a fun little flick that deserves better than some of the ratings it's garnered by those wanting more Blair Witch Project.
After Blair Witch how would it be possible to continue to suggest the possibility of real footage and lost documentary videos falling into the hands of a movie studio? Viewers have now latched onto found footage as a style, but at the time following the release of the first film the idea was simply seen as a gimmick to get people to pay to watch a movie with zero budget.
Book of Shadows is a great horror film, not quite as ambitious as the director set out to convey in his final cut, but tons of fun for horror fans. Turn off the lights, turn off your phone, enjoy the show.
