Evil Dead Rise is the fifth installment of the Evil Dead series, which follows two sisters trying to save their family and themselves from demonic creatures.
The film stars Alyssa Sutherland, Lily Sullivan, Gabrielle Echols, Morgan Davies, Nell Fisher, and Mia Challis. The film was initially intended to premiere on HBO Max but will now be released theatrically on April 21st, 2023.
The movie was filmed in New Zealand in 2021. According to Lee Cronin, who wrote and directed the film, 6,500 liters of fake blood were used during the making of the movie. So expect the gore level to be extreme.
In a first for the series, this storyline has moved from the woods into the city. The twisted tale is about two estranged sisters whose happy reunion is cut short by evil forces.
“In the fifth Evil Dead film, a road-weary Beth pays an overdue visit to her older sister Ellie, who is raising three kids on her own in a cramped L.A. apartment. The sisters’ reunion is cut short by the discovery of a mysterious book deep in the bowels of Ellie’s building, giving rise to flesh-possessing demons and thrusting Beth into a primal battle for survival as she is faced with the most nightmarish version of motherhood imaginable.”
