In the fifth Evil Dead film, a road-weary Beth pays an overdue visit to her older sister Ellie, who is raising three kids on her own in a cramped L.A apartment. The sisters' reunion is cut short by the discovery of a mysterious book deep in the bowels of Ellie's building, giving rise to flesh-possessing demons, and thrusting Beth into a primal battle for survival as she is faced with the most nightmarish version of motherhood imaginable.

Audience Says

Evil Dead Rise's intense horror and inventive gore help make up for a so-so story that downplays the franchise's signature humor.

Chicago Reader

The first sequel in a full decade, this should feel like getting an Evil Dead reunion, but instead it’s more akin to a so-so tribute band.

Evil Dead Rise provides blood by the bucketful without ever crossing the line into outright cruelty.

Flickering Myth

Evil Dead Rise remains a downright depraved, groovily gory fifth entry in this horror series.

Rated: 3/5

Cinerama Film

Evil Dead Rise may lack some of the dark comedy of its predecessors, but the tankards of blood and intensity of its horror more than make up for it.

Ghouls Magazine

Evil Dead Rise is a return to unpretentious and unrestrained, gore-soaked terror for mainstream horror, bringing the franchise back to be with the maggots, in the best possible way.

Rated: 5/5

Robin S The same people that love Scream 4 loved this movie, it was trash. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review Dario fire movie of the yr Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review B. Lewis Fun not to terrible movie. Not as nail biting as the first. Sloppy editing but I've come to expect it from a shock horror film (jump film). During those few truly jumpy scenes is where the film shined.
