REMAKE confirmed.
Ash will NOT be in the film.
If you're not going to make Evil Dead 4, why bother?

It will very likely suck. But if she gets naked I'll still watch it.

I bet there will be a PMS joke.

The more I hear about this film, the more it dawns on me that they're remaking Evil Dead, not Evil Dead 2 or Army of Darkness. Thus, I'm thinking they're going the no comedy route and are simply shooting a horror film and trying to capitalize on the franchise name.
Evil Dead was shitty. That's why Evil Dead 2 was a complete remake AND spoof of it.

Another trailer.
Lots of gore and body horror.

Almost looks like they watched Evil Dead 2, and thought, "Somebody should remake that but play it straight, take out the humor, and... ummm... hey, did anyone ever see Hostel? And also let's pretend Cabin in the Woods doesn't exist."

Agreed. Damnatio memoriae.

It's getting great reviews.
Four words - "oh, that's not right."
Five more words - "that's a lot of blood."
Repeat for 90 awesome minutes.
And such.

It was "Americanized" by Diablo Cody since the two dudes who wrote it weren't fluent. Nothing against them (yet, as I've not seen the flick), but the literary abilities of the former are laughable.

It was not great. In fact, I'd say it sucked.
Lots of gore, yes. However, terrible, terrible acting, and nowhere near the charm and personality of the original.
The writing, and maybe it was the translation..., was horrific. Nobody acted like real people. There was no reason for the reading of the passage. The biggest flaw is the convenient "pausing" of everyone else so that things can occur in front of the camera. That means that although people are just off camera, they don't respond to anything occcurring in front of the camera.
Stupid.
Watch it when it hits Netflix, but this was nothing more than an attempting at being gross and cashing in on a name.

So many times where people were unrealistically stupid.

This was on last night on the "we don't make cuts and don't give a fuck" movie channel, so I saw it in full. Total and complete ass.
Limb amputations: ass.
Tree rape: ass. Even the tree looked embarrassed.
These people have the slowest acting adrenal glands in the whole of the human species.
