Nato And Remy’s Last Stand: A Reflection On Our 2013 Horror Predictions

Alright, it's no secret that my counterpart Remy and myself like to play psychic and predict what horror movies will be worth your while, and 2012 was no different. Perusing through the 2013 catalogue, we picked a handful of movies that really got our inner horror geek excited, from all different subgenres, and hoped to dazzle you with bold and righteous predictions - which of course didn't hold true for half the films. Seriously, we didn't back down, and even on the more independent features we watched, we rated them with the upmost honesty. If a movie isn't worth your while, it doesn't matter how much filming budget it had. A boring movie is a boring movie - no doubt about it.

Um, I guess considering that this film didn’t actually come out, I failed. We don’t even have a fucking trailer yet. Just a teaser that shows and tells us absolutely nothing. Well, I am batting 0 for 2 right now.

Whatever, I suck.

Nato – Evil Dead

Hey everyone, remember when I said not to worry because Fede Alvarez was going to absolutely dominate with his Evil Dead “remake?” Yeah, Mr. Alvarez delivered horror goodness in spades, and did nothing to sully the name of Sam Raimi’s iconic franchise. If anything, this newest entry into the Evil Dead franchise reignited Raimi’s creative spark, getting him interested in Army Of Darkness 2. Sounds plausible, right?

Here’s the thing – I know some of you didn’t dig what Alvarez created as much as I did, but man, I can’t help but think Evil Dead is the second best horror movie of the year, barely edged out by the Elijah Woods remake of Maniac. Evil Dead benefitted from a bigger budget and grossly unnerving practical effects magic to up the ante of Raimi’s original, delivering a product I believe Sam would have made given the proper funds. Oh yeah, and if I hear one more person complain that it wasn’t funny, I’m going to ban you from these articles forever. EVIL DEAD WASN’T CREATED WITH HUMOR, THAT WAS EVIL DEAD 2.

…alright, I can’t stay mad you forever. Nato loves you!
