That Film Stew Ep 413 - Evil Dead Rise (Review)

Written and directed by Lee Cronin, Evil Dead Rise is the supernatural horror film which serves as the fifth instalment of the Evil Dead film series. Thanks to Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures we got to check out an early preview screening. Road-weary Beth (Lily Sullivan) pays an overdue visit to her older sister Ellie (Alyssa Sutherland), 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.
