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.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let's you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It's really a wonderful app. I've subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn't seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn't make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We'll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
