The 6th installment in the Horror Hall of Fame series 'Evil Dead' is here with 'Evil Dead Burn', and with this episode we kept our thoughts a bit shorter than usual. Hence this being an XTRA CUT episode rather than a full on movie breakdown. And ooooo boy are oppinions expressed deeply about this entry thats for sure. Does Burn it hit the mark compared to the rest of the series though??

The Dreadful Duo take a pleasent trip back to the late 90s where we were treated to the late boom of teen slashers Horror movies featuring posters that all followed the same rule of 'GET EVERYONES HEAD SHOT ON IT'. Todays film is no exception with a surprisingly hit cast featuring in the parasitic alien based Horror, The Faculty.
