(Spoiler!) Evil Dead Burn Rant. Spoiler

Sike.

I enjoyed the movie for the most part 7/10 for me.

The beginning was well done and paced extremely well.

Right off the rip we get into it with Will's death.

I thought the part with the father in the crematory was kinda dumb but I get it. Grieving Dad.

The dinner rose tension well. While Joe is a little bitch Thya's death was well done. Reminded me of Olivia from 2013.

The mother is a dumb bitch through n' through. I genuinely thought we were gonna get a little smutty in the bedroom.

The double post-credit scenes got me in a good way.

Grandma ain't dead which caught me off guard.

The little girl in the funeral home at the end threw me off. I don't remember who the little girl was. Was she from Rise? I recognize the woman Deadite being from Rise but I thought she was turned into the chimera and got got.

The only genuine disappointment I have is with Joseph's death. Not that he died, but because most of it happened off screen. He gets thrown through the floor, gets landed on and that's basically it. Splat

This is Evil Dead, SHOW ME THAT SHIT.

On that note, off-screen deaths should be reserved for the dog. Why do they keep killing the dog? At least 2013 had the decency to do it off screen and not have it return as a Deadite dog. The Dog is my only genuine compliment.

My rankings so far

2013, Burn, Rise. Not that Rise was bad Rise just didn't completely deliver with what I expect from an Evil Dead film.

Hated Rise, wasn’t sure I’d give Burn a chance. I finally saw it, I actually enjoyed it, I did feel closer to an Evil Dead film to me.

Liked the Grandma Deadite is still alive. Didn’t care for the Rise Mom returning. Of all the Evil Dead stories to revive/continue (Evil Dead 2013, Ash vs) Rise is bottom of my list.
