"Evil Dead Rise: A Review of Lee Cronin's Homage to the Demonic Franchise"

Writer-director Lee Cronin discusses how he maintained the spirit and energy of the Evil Dead franchise while changing up the characters and setting for Evil Dead Rise, which takes place in an apartment building in Los Angeles. Cronin wanted to make sure the movie was entertaining and scary, with moments of levity to release the tension. He also talks about his affinity for themes of loved ones changing and the isolation of apartment living as a setting for horror. Cronin believes all horror is elevated and hopes audiences will embrace the more visceral and entertaining horror films that are currently popular. So far, the reaction to Evil Dead Rise has been supportive and positive.
