So I was reading this article called “Movies That Rock: Evil Dead (2013)” and it had me hooked from the beginning. The article basically dives into the remake of the classic horror movie, Evil Dead, and why it still rocks in 2021.
Basically, the new version still has all the elements that made the original so great - a cabin in the woods, ancient demons, and lots of gore. But the article points out some additional elements that make it stand out, like the way it explores addiction in a realistic and terrifying way.
Oh, and my personal anecdote? I remember watching the original Evil Dead with some friends in high school and we were so scared we had to stop it halfway through. We were such wimps!
Anyway, the article also talks about how the new movie pays homage to the original while still standing on its own two feet. Overall, it’s a great read for horror fans or anyone who wants to learn more about what makes a movie truly rock.
Personally, I love it when remakes honor their roots while still creating something new and fresh. And I think it’s important to appreciate horror movies as a legitimate genre, rather than writing them off as mindless gore. So if you’re into horror, check out the article and then give the movie a watch!
