Netflix has had a pretty good run with both original movies and the ones it has scooped up through licensing lately, and that trend continues with a new horror movie that has arrived at #2 on the charts for its debut.

That would be Evil Dead Rise, what is the fifth film in the series which also includes a TV show that spanned three seasons, but is arguably one of its best entries, despite showing up so late in the game...

If folks haven't seen it then definitely give it a whirl.

Does it retain the humour of the 2nd and 3rd entries?

No, the modern films have been lacking in explicit humour. There might be a dash of the blackest comedy in there but they aren't comedy horror - the last throw of that dice was Ash vs Evil Dead. It's been suggested that it all takes place in the same universe and this could build to a crossover event but it would be tonal weird.
