Media Ghouls Episode 236- Evil Dead

Somehow the 2021 Halloween Spooktacular is already coming to an end. Justin and Ian have had a great time reviewing some of horror's best remakes this season, and are excited to end things in the most bloody fashion possible. And few movies are bloodier than 2013's Evil Dead remake. With a more allegorical take on the classic cabin in the woods story, Fede Alvarez's film impresses in how it balances the series' gory horror and tongue in cheek tone, a feat previously thought only possible in the hands of Sam Raimi. With a different take on the lore, characters that are actually decent human beings, and a final scene among the very best in horror, this remake is the perfect subject with which to send off this Halloween.
