What is Evil Dead Burn about?

The sixth film in Sam Raimi's 45-year-old horror franchise, directed by Infested's Sébastien Vaniček and shot in New Zealand. After the loss of her husband, Alice (Souheila Yacoub) seeks solace with her in-laws in their secluded family home — only to watch them transform, one by one, into Deadites, turning the gathering into a family reunion from hell where the vows she took in life live on even in death.

Evil Dead Burn Review: Ferocious Gore Craft, Missing Mischief — the Franchise's Meanest Chapter

Sébastien Vaniček's Evil Dead Burn is the franchise's most savage gore machine, and critics are split — a Certified Fresh 72% on Rotten Tomatoes against a 55 Metascore — between its ferocious practical craft and its thin, humorless siege narrative.

Gorehounds get exactly what they came for in the franchise's meanest entry, but thin characters and the missing Raimi-era mischief keep it a notch below Evil Dead Rise. Fans should go; the curious can wait for streaming.
