Horror fiends know that most remakes of their favorite films are infinitely worse than the original, but there are still a few exceptions worth checking out. On Hulu, for instance, you can now stream the 2013 <em>Evil Dead<\/em>, which is arguably the greatest horror remake ever made.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If this is your first time watching <em>Evil Dead<\/em> (2013), you should know that it was directed by Fede \u00c1lvarez as his feature film debut. The financial success of this film helped establish him as a big name in Hollywood, and most recently, he directed <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/alien\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Alien;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Alien<\/a>: Romulus<\/em>, another wildly successful horror film in yet another popular franchise. For my money, \u00c1lvarez is one of the most reliable directors for breathing life back into stale franchises, and that\u2019s on full display in <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/evil-dead\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Evil Dead;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Evil Dead<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The plot of <em>Evil Dead<\/em> involves a group of friends hanging out in a spooky cabin in the woods, intending to help their friend kick her heroin habit. Eventually, one of them finds a creepy old book and makes the mistake of reading from it out loud. This unleashes a mysterious evil force, and unless these friends can find a way to either fight these horrors or escape, they are doomed to die in increasingly brutal ways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The cast of smaller names does a great job, including Jane Levy (who has a voice role in the new <em>Toxic Avenger<\/em> movie) as our leading lady. <em>Evil Dead<\/em> also stars Shiloh Fernandez, who has a role in Christopher Nolan\u2019s upcoming Greek epic film <em>The Odyssey<\/em>. It also stars Jessica Lucas, who eventually created a solid career on the small screen with main roles in <em>Gotham<\/em> and <em>The Resident<\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/lM1gHUmygSNv4Wl884EFMw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/cd34c7d4066d27d7037d01db60cc8dd1\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Beyond the confident direction and killer performances, what I loved most about this <em>Evil Dead<\/em> remake is that it expertly weaves the original source material into an otherwise original movie. That makes it different from other horror remakes like the 2003 T<em>exas Chainsaw Massacre<\/em> reboot, which mostly functioned as a modern update of a classic horror film. While I love<em> Chainsaw<\/em> (one of the best horror remakes ever), <em>Evil Dead<\/em> is arguably more entertaining for its ability to surprise fans who might know what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And trust me: you won\u2019t see <strong>any<\/strong> of the crazy twists in the film coming, ranging from its startling deaths to its blood-drenched climax. Critics generally enjoyed these twists, and the movie currently has a critical score of 64 percent on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/opinion\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Rotten Tomatoes;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>. This is notable because professional critics are usually hard on the horror genre, but Evil Dead has enough stylish direction, engaging writing, and screamworthy performances to be \u201ccertified fresh.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/50eHk7ayfvITlgMZsOyIbA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/e9d87b5cd47cd8871773510455e582d4\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Will you find <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hulu.com\/movie\/82b68a46-db30-4eb5-a2e0-453bc3cfc711\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Evil Dead;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><em>Evil Dead<\/em><\/a> a scary good time when you stream this remake on Hulu, or will this film make you wish you were dead by dawn?
