Evil Dead Burn is what you expect it to be: dark, violent and gory. But man, watching and enjoying it is a bit of a slog.
That’s not to say it’s not “good.” Horror fans (of whom I’m not really one) will rejoice and understandably so. It’s fast-paced, goes barreling non-stop from about 20 minutes in to the conclusion, and the gore is creative and constant.

That being said, it’s a situation where you might want to go home afterward and take a shower and read a Bible or something.
You still get some classic Raimi touches from the early Evil Dead films: drone work, tilted angles, closeups. But it seems they’ve lost the fun of those earlier works. This is deadly serious, with a possible punchline from a Deadite thrown in here and there.

about the RunPee app.
Single best investment
By and far best investment Ive made. I used to drive my husband nuts because Id be a fidgeting mess the last half hour of the movie trying not to miss important parts. Now I just turn this app on and *bam* I can actually focus on the movie the whole time. Even puts alerts to my watch so even better. Also I can guarentee all the 5 reviews arent fake as one person accused - its just that so many of us movie-goers had the same problem and this fixed it. Yes, it is paid but jeeze its expensive to keep watching movies and updating an app for every movie. And if you read more about the creator he mentions he has several people contributing - so yeah its paid but omg worth every cent. 10/10
