Just watched evil dead burn and I wanted to talk about it so SPOILER WARNING ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
Okay so I liked the movie but it was a kinda anticlimactic experience. Okay. Now, I liked the movie though the experience was anticlimactic and I was asking myself the question of why? Why must everything be about the abuse of women? And why must it be so blatant? Now I know what you guys are going to say You're going to say hey no movies have to be deep. Yes I know. I myself love analyzing movies, shows everything about it and I know that horror is a political genre and it is very important to you know push boundaries and everything like that. But my point is, if every movie is some deep hidden meaning where's the fun? I mean for some people it's fun I enjoy it sometimes but if you just want to watch an evil dead movie do you have to just slap some deepness on it and then suddenly it's like some profound piece. It seems kind of like a man was trying to say something if you know what I mean and I just don't get it. I myself think that movies some movies should have a story but some movies can be allowed to just exist and hold space Without there being some profound message behind them and especially in the horror community like the terrifier movies. That is a debated topic but my whole point is why must the abuse be so blatant and evil dead where you notice it at the first second you see Will and Alice. Why must that be the first immediate thing that comes to your mind and then the whole movie be about that? I feel like it's not connecting with something. I don't know if it's the theme or if it's the pace or if it's just the overall storyline but something is not working for me. I feel as if they are trying to force a quote unquote woke movie where she kills her abuser it's kind of like a good for her movie trope. Instead of making a regular evil Dead movie they're trying to hop on the bandwagon of making a good for her movie. Kind of like ready or not or some people consider midsummer a good for her movie which is not. But they're trying overly hard to make her this badass who is taking out you know everything on her abuser and you know making things right but it just doesn't go well. I don't know if it's the writing or what but it seems so bleak. It feels like it could have been elaborated on more or not at all. It seems like it just fell flat. It honestly didn't feel endearing to me at all. It really didn't. It was just kind of something they threw in the plot just to make it seem more deep and see more you know like I don't want to say woke but woke. You know what I mean? And it was enjoyable up until Will came back and he's all burnt Will came back and he's all burnt and then it just throws off everything. It's just the makeup wasn't that good and it just totally takes you out of the experience. It totally takes you out of the experience. I enjoyed their abusive relationship so much more when Will was a haunting factor. He was already a dead ghost but then whenever you make him flush again you are totally taking away the fear and the craziness and the trauma. You were just making him another living being that she is to be afraid of again. And it totally takes away from the story they are trying to tell. That's why I think it falls flat. If you are trying to tell a story about abuse make it real. Make it have death. Make it be about the trauma and the abuse like they did with the flashbacks. Why must they totally bring him back and just dismantle the thing that they already built. It just does not make sense to me and it totally takes you out of the experience and it leaves an unsatisfying ending. I think it's a more impactful story if Will's death is the catalyst that starts all of it and he's just dead because then that'll show the unraveling of the family the unraveling of their marriage and just everybody's grief and it works better that way. Not in the way that they did it. It could have been so much more. A deep storyline dosent make a movie good if you don’t go about it the right way. What are you guys thoughts?
