The Horror Thread 2U • Page 423

Yeah, Evil Dead Rise was very tight. Only minor complaint was the level of fan service. One or two references/staples of the franchise, sure, but there were like five different callbacks to the first two movies that felt tonally out of place to me.

Otherwise, super bloody and fun, though. Exactly what you want from an Evil Dead film. Still a notch below 2013 for me, though.

 

I'm curious to know which ones you are referring to here? I think I remember most of them, but not sure. Feel free to respond to this in the actual movie thread if that's easier.

 

Had a great time with EDR

 

not much of a fan of Army of Darkness at all, but really love just about everything else in the Evil Dead series and am very excited to see Rise (hopefully) soon!

 

Evil Dead
Evil Dead 2013
(Ash vs. Evil Dead)
Evil Dead Rise
Evil Dead 2
Army of Darkness

But I love Army of Darkness, so we're really just splitting hairs here

 

I know Evil Dead 2013 is at the top and AoD is at the bottom for me. I feel like the rest can be swapped around depending on my mood

 

Imagine The VVitch but people are tripping over goats and shit.

 

I think the cast and acting and dynamic alone puts EDR above 2013, but totally get why someone would lean towards the latter.

 

Yoooo Fulci double feature on tldi. Also losing it over this new late night format haha

 

Love it. Gonna try hard to stay awake through the second movie lol

 

Zombie has been on my list for so long. That was fucking amazing. Some of those sequences were truly unbelievable

 

It’s an all timer

 

I think I do like the characters in EDR more, but the violence in 2013 takes it for me haha

 

First Destination

- from my wife

 

Okay, finally watched Evil Dead 2013 and yup it rules. Super gnarly, the box cutter really got me good. Good nods to the original without really rehashing. The other Raimi references were fun and it's cool to see them in a movie that's pretty tonally different than his work, glad someone got their face thrown up on.

 

Jane Levy killed it in that. I try not to remember any gory details

Am I glad I watched (insert horror movie title here)? Yes. Would I watch it again? No.

 

What are everyone's favorite horror movies from the '90s? What would you say is the categorical best? Which ones do you think have been slept on too much and more people need to watch?

 

Scream is my #1

 

Scream, Se7en and Blair Witch Project.

 

Scream
The Faculty
Event Horizon
Ring
Candyman
Blair Witch Project

Definitely feel like I'm missing some

 

Scream
Braindead
Misery
Se7en
Blair Witch
The Faculty
The Sixth Sense

 

1. Scream
2. Candyman (I feel like this one doesn’t get the credit it deserves)
3. Blair Witch
4. Silence of the Lambs
5. Scream 2

 

If anyone’s in the market for an insane 90s horror movie, watch Braindead asap haha

 

I’ve been waiting for this to pop up somewhere, anywhere on streaming for like a decade
