Warning: SPOILERS for Evil Dead Rise are going to be openly discussed in this feature. If you haven’t caught all the bloody fun yet, you’ve been warned.
Fear is safely at a theater near you thanks to writer/director Lee Cronin’s bloodsoaked horror movie Evil Dead Rise scaring up business. As an entry in Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell’s legendary franchise, it definitely fits the bill with all of the Deadite-fueled mayhem on the screen. And yet, this latest screamfest could find itself serving another purpose that hasn’t come up in what we know about the fifth Evil Dead film. Specifically, a case can be made for the picture at hand to become a Mother’s Day favorite, and the evidence is pretty compelling.
