Flesh-munching demons are on the rampage in this year's 'requel' (reboot/sequel), Evil Dead Rise. It's the follow-up to 2013's Evil Dead, itself a remake of Sam Raimi's notoriously gory cult horror-comedy from 1981.
If you're looking for a full-on grisly extravaganza in 2023, this is surely it. Here's the new poster for Evil Dead Rise.
Here's the official synopsis: "Moving the action out of the woods and into the city, EVIL DEAD RISE tells the twisted tale of two estranged sisters, played by Sutherland and Sullivan, whose reunion is cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons, thrusting them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable."
Raimi oversees the movie in an executive producer capacity. It's directed by Lee Cronin who helmed 2019's atmospheric Gothic chiller The Hole in the Ground. The cast includes Lily Sullivan (I Met a Girl, Barkskins), Alyssa Sutherland (The Mist, Vikings), Morgan Davies (Strom Boy, The End), Gabrielle Echols (Reminiscence) and introducing Nell Fisher (Northspur).
Ahead of the release of Evil Dead Rise on April 21, the green band iteration of the trailer is now available to watch below. If you want the hardcore red band version with more terror, click here to watch. (Don't forget to check out our list of 2023 horror movies coming soon.)
