Seems like all the latest entries of beloved horror franchises are taking a holiday. A trip away from home to recharge the batteries if you will. And with Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead being at home in those woods, there’s only one place to head for a break…the city. While all other WB disc releases across the world have included no – that’s ZERO – extras, this UK Studiocanal version includes the following: Moving the action out of the woods and into the city, Evil Dead Rise tells a twisted tale of two estranged sisters, played by Sullivan and Sutherland, 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. The image for this film is pristine. It takes place mostly in the dark besides the opening scene which is set in daylight. The darkness is not a hindrance for this film given the superb shadow detail extension. The HDR10 coding does not add a lot of extra brightness, given the artistic intent of the film, but in comparing the Blu-ray to the 4K Ultra HD, one can see a better dynamic range, more ‘pop’ in lights, flashlights, and lamps, and a bit more color, especially in the reds.

EVIL DEAD RISE marks the return to the iconic horror franchise, written and directed by Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground). The film stars Lily Sullivan (I Met a Girl, Barkskins), Alyssa Sutherland (New Gold Mountain, Vikings), Morgan Davies (The End, Storm Boy), Gabrielle Echols (Reminiscence) and introducing Nell Fisher (Northspur). In Evil Dead Rise, the action moves out of the woods and into the city, and tells a twisted tale of two estranged sisters, played by Sullivan and Sutherland, 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. 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. Evil Dead Rise was shot in the anamorphic format with the Arri Alexa Mini LF using Panavision G-, T-Series, Ultra Panatar and Ultra Speed MKII lenses in ARRIRAW (4.5K). A 4K digital intermediate was utilized and the film comes to 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray in a 2.40:1 HEVC 2160p HDR10 encodement.

Plot: What’s it about? Video: How’s it look? Audio: How’s it sound? Supplements: What are the extras? The Bottom Line Plot: What’s it about? So it’s not exactly brimming over with supplementals. But we at least get something. The commentary is an easy, engaging listen – Cronin is so in love with the franchise that he’s a hugely enthusiastic talker – while the short film is nice little chiller about two men revisiting an abandoned fair ground where their friend disappeared a number of years before, a decent calling card for Cronin. And so Lee Cronin’s fifth entry starts off exactly where you would expect it – in a cabin. In the woods. And its one of his few stumbles in an otherwise brilliantly propulsive, claustrophobic and brilliantly bloody take on the classic Deadites. While there’s nothing wrong per se with the cold open here – it feels VERY Sam Raimi both in terms of its execution and its unbridled glee at the bodily carnage being meted out - it’s a clunky plot beat that actually bears no real link to the main story. While obviously a clear nod to Deadites past, it feels too much like a safety blanket, almost as unsure as some of its audience in the upcoming change of scenery and it contributes to the film’s only real issue – it’s pacing in the first act. Starring: Lily Sullivan , Alyssa Sutherland , Morgan Davies (XII) , Gabrielle Echols , Nell Fisher , Mirabai Pease Directed by Tom Holland ( Child’s Play, Fright Night), Stephen King adaptation Thinner was released in 1996, and it’s now getting a Collector’s Edition Blu-ray from Scream Factory.

Director Lee Cronin keeps the blood flowing in the next chapter in Sam Raimi's iconic franchise arriving on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD on June 27. Digital will be available on May 9. Instead of focusing on the one man-god Bruce Campbell or somebody similar, Evil Dead Rise follows a single mother named Ellie who has three kids and is all living in a soon-to-be demolished high-rise apartment. The tattoo artist's money isn't rolling in, which is where the kids try and make any money they can to help out. Ellie's sister Beth comes to visit when an earthquake rattles Los Angeles and creates a hole underneath their high-rise. One of the children explores the hole and finds a crusty old book, some ancient artifacts, and some records, which of course, invite the horror to come. Shot digitally on the ubiquitous Arri Alexa Mini LF and a 4.5K native image to produce it’s 4K Digital intermediate from, this release from Studiocanal has a fantastically solid foundation. It produces a native 3840 x 2160p resolution image in a theatrically accurate 2.39:1 aspect ratio that also utilises 10-bit video depth, WCG and HDR10 only, all of which has been encoded using the HEVC/H.265 video codec. Spawn’, ‘Evil Dead’, ‘Doom’ and More Coming to ‘Call of Duty’ Games as Part of “The Haunting” Halloween Event If you like your movies dark, then this one is for you. Warner’s 2.39:1 HEVC 4K image does a great job of utilizing HDR for a nice, balanced look and feel. And that’s good, as there isn’t a shade of blue in the film. Faces covered in blood, green skin and ugly teeth – if this is something that gets you going, then you’ll be right at home. Detail is sharp, contrast strong and with it being a new film we know what to expect. And it does deliver. I just wish the content behind this nice-looking image had a little more substance.

Lee Cronin owes Fede Alvarez a drink. The question of just how do you reboot a beloved horror franchise, and do it well, has already been thunderously answered by Alvarez’s astounding 2013 Evil Dead, meaning Cronin, the talented writer/director behind the stylish Hole in the Ground (2019), had a tried and tested blueprint to follow. And follow it he did. Evil Dead Risecomes to 4K with a 2160p UHD 4K transfer with HDR enhancement. This is a visually stylized movie with many dark contrasts and low lighting levels to perfect that haunted and demonic look. It succeeds in those arenas where other movies might fail.Evil Dead Rise is produced by long time franchise producer Rob Tapert (Ash vs Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe) and executive produced by series creator and horror icon Sam Raimi and cult legend and "Ash" himself, Bruce Campbell. EVIL DEAD RISE is produced by long time franchise producer Rob Tapert (Ash vs Evil Dead, Don't Breathe) and executive produced by series creator and horror icon Sam Raimi and cult legend and "Ash" himself, Bruce Campbell. Disappointingly, this release comes with no bonus features. The only thing supplied is the Movies Anywhere digital code and the film on both 4K and Blu-ray. The Final Assessment

I was actually mostly skeptical with Evil Dead Rise from the trailer. We’re long gone from a weird cabin in the woods and deadites coming out of the ground. Instead we shifted to a grungy apartment in Los Angeles where a mother is turned into a deadite and tries to go full demon on her family. It just didn’t FEEL like an Evil Dead movie at all from what I could see. But at the same time the red band trailer was intriguing and I was proven wrong once more. This two-disc collector's set comes with both a 4K and Blu-ray cut of the film, with plenty of extra features to be revealed closer to the time of release. For the week of June 25th, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release Evil Dead Rise on Blu-ray and 4K UHD. Other new releases on Blu-ray include Tales of the Walking Dead: The Complete First Season from RLJE Films, The Tank from Well Go USA and Big George Foreman ...It's also a great horror on its own merits so even if you're someone who hasn't seen any of the previous films, you don't need to have done so as it doesn't require it.
