Evil Dead Burn

The reaction is split, with more people leaning positive about this new Evil Dead entry than negative, but nobody's calling it a clean win. Alice, played by Souheila Yacoub, goes to her dead husband's family only to find them turning into fear-feeding monsters, and the story is where most of the problems are, with many calling it thin and the pacing a slog. What works are the visuals, which most agree are suitably gnarly and stylish, and there's a decent amount of appreciation for the film's sense of humor and the general acting. Director Sébastien Vaniček gets a lot of the credit for the look and feel, though some feel the movie doesn't quite live up to the franchise's legacy.
