Netflix has just added one of goriest and blood soaked horror movies of 2023

If you missed this Netflix horror in cinemas earlier this year, here is you chance to rectify that!

Written and directed by Irish filmmaker Lee Cronin (The Hole in the Ground), it tells the story of a family in a crumbling Los Angeles apartment block, who survive an earthquake only to discover the damage has opened a path to a previously cordoned basement.

Finding a bunch of creepy religious iconography down there, one of them recovers a weird book made of human skin, and an audio recording with priests reciting unholy passages... and you can guess how things go from there.

Evil Dead Rise was a huge hit when released in cinemas

NME - "You won’t catch a more satisfying horror film this year. Seek it out."

Collider - "Evil Dead Rise's scares and gore are so effective, and its cast so committed to the story, that it's easy to be completely enthralled by Cronin's movie."

IndieWire - "Cronin’s Evil Dead Rise is a blood-soaked blast. He summons all of the best aspects of the franchise, while still creating a beast all his own that can boldly stand apart from the series. This is the kind of horror franchise film that make audiences fall in love with the genre all over again."

Evil Dead Rise is available to watch on Netflix from Thursday 21 September.
