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...

      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.
