OK fanboys, yes it's quite the departure from the style/feel/atmosphere of the originals, but damn this movie was awesome in its own right.
I bet if it didn't have the ED name, it would be ranked even higher then 6.5 - which is amazing for a horror film. It pulls you in from the very start and doesn't let up. If you are looking for a "slow burn" look elsewhere - this movie is relentless. I've watched it a few times now - it holds up very well.
Ignore the bad reviews, throw out expectations based on ED 1 & 2 and you will enjoy this film.
