Below, the Red Band trailer for "Evil Dead," which looks about like you'd expect: New kids, new cabin, same basic "Deadites" (though they were called that in the original and I don't expect they'll be called that here) and a modern-looking horror aesthetic...
Thus far, I like it. It's continuing to look like a smart decision to not necessarily make someone "The Ash" in the direct sense - remember, Ash in the first movie wasn't really "Ash" as we've come to remember him.
Honestly, my biggest worry about this and any other "serious" kids-in-the-woods horror film is that "Cabin in The Woods" may have permanently put the genre to bed - I just don't know that I'll be able to take ANY of this remotely seriously without thinking back to how perfectly it was parodied (and then used for greater purposes) there. We'll see.
