The production values were much improved, of course; that's what $17 million will provide for, and then some. There were some changes to the story line, as expected, but the central theme remained, contributing greatly to an enjoyable and successful result. This remake also retained the Evil Dead notoriety as a very bloody film. Even those prepared for this aspect of the film may be taken aback a bit by the chainsaw scene. It even made me a bit uncomfortable, just due to its length, and all the red in that scene.
Overall, the acting was good, the original theme was maintained, and the genre notched up another win. Even so, recommended only for diehard fans of horror flicks.
