Viewer Reviews (TMDb)
The marketing campaign for Evil Dead Bait has been strategic and effective, leveraging the film's unique selling points to generate significant buzz. Trailers and promotional materials focus on the film's innovative approach to storytelling and its commitment to practical effects…
khadaam · 10/10By far the weakest of the "Evil Dead" franchise films to date. A lack of pacing, overlong pauses in action/horror, an anticlimactic ending and a pervading sense of "seen it all before but better", for me at least, defines this production. Acting is reasonable, as are special effe…
MovieGuys · 5/10I was in one of the test groups who watched this movie 6 months before the release and they actually implemented a bunch of suggestions I have and it ended pretty good! All evil dead movies are similar so I will just say in my review it follows the style of the last movies but wi…
Leno · 8/10As a massive horror fan, I give this latest installment a solid 7/10. While I still thoroughly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend catching it in theaters, it didn't quite reach the perfect 10/10 heights of the previous entries for a couple of specific reasons. **What Hel…
Dean · 7/10Things don't exactly get off to a great start for "Alice" (Souheila Yacoub) when her drunken bully of an husband takes off in his car on her birthday and wraps it round a tree. No great loss, you might think, but his dad "Edgar" (Erroll Shand) seems a little upset and so goes to…
CinemaSerf · 6/10Watching **EVIL DEAD BURN** becomes an ordeal that tests how close the line between the MPAA's R and NC-17 ratings can be pushed like no other horror film seen this year -- and maybe several years before. Assaulting audiences with tongue-in-cheek, stomach-churning horror has long…
This is a worthy successor to the franchise, and it does a lot of fun with the source material. The characters are fun, which means that you get to engage with them and feel something when they meet their gruesome demise, which is way better than having interchangeable teens just…
Sierbahnn · 7/10The film strikes a great balance, delivering clever narrative tie-backs to Evil Dead Rise alongside a subtle, underlying connection to the lore of the original films. Rather than resting on nostalgia, it uses those classic elements to build a story that feels fresh while remainin…
RetroWill · 8/10Let me start by saying I LOVED 'Evil Dead Rise'. This was BAD. I was truly let down as I had high hopes from the 2023 installment. The acting was meh, the story was blah. Where was ANY Necronomicon? They said there was to be three different stories about three different books. I…
Gordon · 4/10The entire Evil Dead scenario seems to be losing its continuity at this point. I wasn't impressed with this film as a Evil Dead movie, however I understood the themes of trauma, abuse and healing that were present throughout. It kind of felt like someone wrote a different film th…
kingpinkain · 6/10If you thought the era of Hollywood horror filmmakers using over-the-top gratuitous and totally uncalled for gore and violence on women and girls to cover up for shallow scripts and lack of creativity, well, you were wrong. This is exactly what Sam Raimi (producer), Sébastien Van…
druscilla_of_old · 3/10This did not feel like an Evil Dead movie at all. It tried to make you care about the characters with the themes of family trauma, but it just didn't work. The movie was cruel for the sake of being cruel (I realize the irony when saying this for an Evil Dead movie). We simply hav…
