‘Evil Dead Rise’ Brings Books, Blood, and Bookends With Highs and Lows [Halloweenies Podcast]
Evil Dead Rise is here! After much deliberation, the Halloweenies finally scale the high rise that is Lee Cronin‘s much-anticipated reimagining. Together, they discuss the ways it leans on the past, looks to the future, and measures up to the rest of the franchise. They also digress on the gore, the family dynamics, and whether or not it understands the assignment.

The Halloweenies take a break from the cenobites and dig up the deadites again to review Evil Dead Burn. It’s a full house for this installment and the feelings are all over the place with some divisive takes amongst the five of them. Lucky for you, there’s a seat at the table… join them and enjoy your mashed potatoes.
If you recall, the gang tackled the entire franchise — including Ash Vs. Evil Dead and unofficial entries like Drag Me to Hell and even Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness— in anticipation of 2023’s Evil Dead Rise. Be sure to revisit the entire season, starting with their two-part episode on Sam Raimi’s original DIY classic.
