Just watched Evil Dead Rise and loved what he did with the film. It was so gruesome, twisted and scary! He definitely understood the DNA of the film.

L O V E D this movie and I’m not an Evil Dead fan! Now I need to go watch all the evil dead movies and hole in the ground asap

[@niallmartin9063]

The Hole in the Ground was awesome. So pumped for this.

[@JoeGrizz1y]

Honestly, all Evil Dead is can be summed up in a short way. As long as the films have the DNA and backbone, they will always be good. No matter the setting or actors. I never had an issue with Ash never being in the 2013 or Rise. Cause I know he isn’t a part of the DNA, he was just another huge highlight to enjoying the projects he was in.

I love this movie

[@Ruleof2Review]

I already loved him, but once he said Blair Witch Project my respect went through the roof. THAT’S a man with impeccable taste.

[@pulse4503]

Hes well spoken and clever

[@pulse4503]

compared to the others movies this is the less convincing....dont get me wrong, it has great makeup, special effect, some good acting, a few great ideas, but it brings nothing new to the table imo

[@gr4j0m3r]

This is 2023, so the writer still think drinking snake blood and eating monkey brain somehow related to cultural in Thailand?

[@MrSpookyLover]

Extremely entitled and off putting as a young man. Raised an eyebrow when I heard of his horror success, but fair play

[@m.n.goodbye9481]

He’s a die hard fan of the series and has relished in the success…who wouldn’t be confident?
