Summary
July 10 brings Evil Dead Burn to theaters, with the sixth Evil Dead film centered on Alice and her in-laws as Deadites overrun a family house after a funeral.
Director Sébastien Vaniček’s film is described as slow to ignite but relentless once it does, using practical effects, aggressive sound design and roaming camera work to make the violence feel unusually physical.
The review says the movie’s weakest point is its story and characters—despite solid turns from Souheila Yacoub and Erroll Shand—while the kills, house setting and family dynamics carry the tension.
For franchise fans, the film follows 2023’s Evil Dead Rise, adds some lore without making continuity essential, and includes one mid-credits scene and another at the very end.
