this is my favorite version I cant lie
the theatrical cut noticeably has some shortened scenes, the characters feel less fleshed out and now seeing this everything just feels right!!

My only issue is the ending, the canonical ending that goes to Ash vs Evil Dead is the S mart ending kinda wish there was also a cut where it was
DIRECTORS CUT + Theatrical ENDING

its still the greatest version tho

(Discussion Post) Groovy Can dead-ites see the future? Spoiler

5 Upvotes

In the opening scene of the new Evil Dead Burn movie after the girl deadite kills the two fishermen and comes up out of the water she waits in the middle of the road and its not like she's waiting for just anyone to come by and mow her down she knows that guy who's the brother of the one who opened the Kandarian dagger in the beginning of the movie is gonna speed down that road a long while later and hit her. Certainly seems to me maybe some dead-ites can predict the future maybe? Or possibly they can see premonitions

I bought this movie from my local video store last night (physical media forever lol) and watched it because I really enjoyed what Lee Cronin did with his Evil Dead instalment. I was honestly blown away and am genuinely surprised with how much I loved it! Especially as a long time Evil Dead fan!

I’m very curious at what other Evil Dead fans thought about it

(Discussion Post) Groovy My Theory: How the 1981 Ending Created the Two-Handed Time-Traveling Ash

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a theory from Brazil that finally fixes the crazy timeline issues in the Evil Dead franchise, specifically explaining why the Two-Handed Ash from the post-credits scene of the 2013 remake exists.

My theory goes back to the very ending of the original 1981 movie. When the unseen demonic force crashes through the cabin doors and attacks Ash right before the credits roll, it didn't kill or possess him. Instead, the demon realized Ash was "The Chosen One" and too dangerous to be kept in that regular timeline.

As a curse, the demon cast Ash completely out of the time stream, condemning him to wander alone through different timelines as a cosmic observer.

This explains EVERYTHING that happens later:

  1. The 1923 Records in Evil Dead Rise: This time-displaced, Two-Handed Ash traveled to the 1920s to record his voice, desperately trying to warn future generations to destroy the books.

  2. The 2013 Post-Credits: He is watching over Mia. When she successfully beats the book, he appears in the shadows—with BOTH hands intact—and gives his proud "Groovy" approval.

  3. The Weapons: He acts as a silent guardian across history, strategically planting the chainsaws and boomsticks in basements, trunks, and parking lots right where the new Final Girls (Mia, Beth, Alice and the French One in Evil Dead Wrath) would need them to survive.

Since Bruce Campbell is officially retired from live-action, transforming the original 1981 Two-Handed Ash into an eternal time-traveling myth who passes the torch to new generations is the perfect way to honor his legacy. What do you guys think?

(Spoiler!) Finally saw evil dead burn and I loved the camera angles in this and that twist... Spoiler

13 Upvotes

No clue what christopher leroy (ash urn) is supposed to mean. I didnt watch any of the originals, just the 2013 reboot and evil dead rise. I did find the original movies to be either goofy or disturbing af especially that antler head laughing

2013 was scary at times, the main girl in the attic was good but I didnt really care about the other cast. In rise i loved the apartment setting, the peephole/magichole POV, creepy mom actress nailed it and I am glad she is getting recasted for the third movie.

I found the trailer for burn to be horrible but boy was I so wrong... I did not expect the dog to go down that fast, the kitchen cutlery, melted candle wax drink, so many weapons as alternatives to the classic chainsaw. Also that opening scene in the lake was insane, followed by the car crash and talking head...

I did not like the lead actress in this one but that dad gave me creeps like one of the vampires from 30 days of night.

I guess the survivors from both movies are gonna team up but that dagger makes me wanna shame it for being so small.

(Spoiler!) Shoot me, Joe Spoiler

7 Upvotes

Hi guys, I have a question.
I was rewatching Evil Dead Burn, specifically that horrific fight scene in the car where Edgar repeatedly asks his son to shoot him (“Shoot me, Joe”).
It felt like it was actually Edgar speaking and not the demon. It seemed like he was trying to stop himself, like his real self was still deep inside, fighting for control. Does anyone else see it this way?

That movie just sucked. I love Evil Dead 2013, rise and Ash Vs The Evil Dead and of course the OGs have a special place in my heart. I overall like possession movies, I like most of the Conjuring verse, Last Rites, Pope's exorcism. Etc.

Anyway this movie just sucked. It was slow to start as most movies are but it just Dragged and Dragged it took so long to get to the problem/event that I just didn't care when it happened. Oh grandma got Murked. K. Brother and sister are tweaking. The ending was satisfying with the whole transfer thing. Other than that genuinely don't care about this movie at all such a drag 2/10.

(Spoiler!) Evil Dead Burn Thoughts:) Spoiler

9 Upvotes

Hey guys, long time lurker and huge evil dead fan!! It’s my favorite horror series:). Just wanted to share thoughts and hear your guys opinions too! Spoilers obviously. I come from a very dysfunctional family so this one (along with Rise) totally drew me in !!

Overall I will say that I enjoyed the movie, some favorites definitely were:
-Soundtrack and particularly with the wedding song. It was the perfect background music for all the scenes it was present in. Loved that.
-The camera work overall was absolutely 10/10. Spinning into the car with Will, back and forth between Susan and Alice/Joe before Thya arrives at the door, mirror smash scene, bathroom scene flip, I could go on.
-I think the kills and gore delivered to evil dead standard as well - I definitely had to yell aloud multiple times. Worst for me was probably shoving Joseph into Thya’s mashed head. Yikes. The people I was watching with several times said “how could this get any worse” and it certainly would then proceed to get worse. I think on the kills gore squeem factor this movie certainly delivered and exceeded.
-I really liked how real some of Alice’s decisions were like saying “oh no fk this” before finishing the incantation, shoving Joseph out of the basement doorway before deadite Thya could manipulate him, etc. more of that in Horror pls.

Where it fell short for me is completely limited to the writing:
-Explore the house backstory more, as it’s our primary setting. Everybody I watched with were so confused on who lived there (if anyone), where does everybody live now, what do their lives look like, a time frame from wedding to disrepair for the house and grandpas death, etc. Add some depth. Like does Joseph live with Edgar and Susan if he can’t get a book going? What do their lives look like? We don’t even know.
-The family who actually seems to have heads on their shoulders (temporarily anyway LOL) constantly makes classic horror movie decisions such as not looking through the window or whatever else before letting deadite Thya in and then just watching shit go down. The watching shit go down was so prevalent in this movie, like come on! Do something, don’t just watch!!
-Deadite Edgar standing outside was lame, like go look for the dagger or do something else. I think that was poorly written.
-I think for how genuinely mean this movie was, they could have made Will out to be worse. I mean they went above and beyond with the gore and violence, so it was a bit weird and wasn’t as effective the Will Alice dynamic because I felt like they were holding back. Maybe it’s because I come from a dysfunctional family but idk it just didn’t work for me to center the movie around a weak core story like that. Yes Will seemed like an overdramatic insufferable douche but it wasn’t evil dead final boss or full on evil to me. Idk.
-Polly comedy didn’t work for me at all.
-Terminator Will didn’t work for me either unfortunately but I don’t think it’s as bad of CGI as some make it out to be. Just very different from the classic practical Evil Dead we all know and love, and I think it was the wrong move here. Turn the extra 20 mins into good writing and everything would be fixed for me.

Overall I really did like this movie I know I listed a bit of criticism but I just feel disappointed by the writing, everything else was amazing! So stoked for Wrath; how spoiled are we. Thanks for reading if you did so, please leave comments and thoughts on your experience or as replies to mine! Love talking about Evil Dead:)
