Pros
- Stronger pretense for the characters being at the cabin that gives them a reason to stay and ignore warnings.
- Call backs to the original movie are well done and done just frequently enough to pay homage without relying on them too heavily to get viewers through the movie.
- Handful of creepy or emotional moments peppered throughout the film
Cons
- Most of the movie is just torture porn
- Characters are largely flat.
- The cause of the spirits being reawakened is head desk levels of stupid
Overall
I can understand the rationale behind wanting to remake a low budget horror movie with a bigger budget. Sadly, said budget increase led to an inverse relationship in regards to the movie's charm. There's little to like here and I wouldn't recommend it. Stick with the originals.
