Even though Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell gave their seal of approval and produced Fede Alvarez's re-imagining of Evil Dead, is the new product worthy of the name? A few concepts from the original are preserved and for fans of blood, guts and gore, this movie certainly delivers with some fantastic practical effects. While Raimi's product has an underlying sense of humour, the other does not. As for how it well it will satisfy the fans, purists or not, that's a debate no body can truly answer. It'd be like asking whose vision is better.
Another April, and for the fourth spring in a row, a mutated issue of Absolute Underground Magazine rises from the dead, just like Jesus. Um, actually, doesn’t that make him a zombie? Maybe we are all zombies and we just don’t know it. But instead of wanting brains we want money, but there isn’t any. So does that mean we all have no brains and no money? Things to ponder for next time!
