A reunion between two estranged sisters gets cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons, thrusting them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable.
As my first introduction to the Evil Dead universe, Rise was a relentless and unforgettable experience. The film is undeniably creepy, utilizing its apartment-building setting to create a suffocating sense of dread. It is also 100% committed to its practical effects - itβs visceral, unflinching, and gross in the best way possible. An interesting and intense entry point for any horror fan.
Recommend it - yes
