Evil Dead 2013

★½

Watched 01 Apr 2014

In typical horror tradition things get started with caught girls screaming that they just want to go home, witches speaking inhuman languages and some body shifting.
After this we get the introduction of the characters, settling in this forest house, and we're treated with some nice, sunny forest shots.
It's great to have this cold turkeying girl in the centre, uber sensitive for smells, seemingly hallucinating,... It opens perspectives, only a shame that they are never opened.
What does get opened fast are some body orifices and the accompanying fluids which are on display, and as from the characters, life is drained from the movie.
Still, some hilarious lines are delivered: the reading in the book: leave this book alone; Olivia going insane and imitating "why so serious?"; and Mia, declaring on the stairs when she's almost between the legs of another girl: "I can smell your filthy soul".
Unfortunately, this doesn't save the movie, and it's out of spikes before the gun is.

"Please, please, what are you doing, I just want to go home, uhm, sorry, to bed."
