Everyone who LOVES horror films had only a few reactions when they first announced an Evil Dead Remake: Hate and Hate even more

In our geek community saying you wanted to remake Evil Dead would be the equivalent to someone deciding to re-write the bible.. oh wait they already did that

Well, you get the idea. But after watching the Fede Alvarez helmed remake all I had to say was .. Fantastic. 

Of course a great deal of the success must be attributed to the original team being responsible for the concept, Bruce Cambpell, Sam Raimi and Rober Tapert producing the film and wanting what the original Evil Dead was supposed to be, a balls to the walls horror film, the later installments took a more comedic approach and Army of Darkness was a full blown adventure film but Evil Dead was a full blown scare your pants off horror movie and that's what we got this time;

Diablo Cody also gave the script a polish and changed a few things around and you can see her influence here and there, but as many movies these days choose to tame their content to fit the PG 13 rating, sell action figures and get a "name" star, Evil Dead cranked the goremeter to full blown and gave the fans what they wanted. 

The result was a gorefest of a movie like we havent seen in awhile and in the end, the cameo of all cameos when Bruce Campbell's face just shows up for a milisecond to say... Groovy.. 

I hope this is only the beginning for the Evil Dead crew and that this renewed interest generates enough money to warrant what we all wanted to see for years, a sequel to Army of Darkness.. 

'Till then Ill go watch Evil Dead again.. 

Peace!
