WITHER is the Swedish EVIL DEAD. There's not much more to say about it than that. It has the same ferocity and constant graphic bloodshed as the American EVIL DEAD remake which came out a year later, in 2013. A bunch of friends visit the usual cabin in the woods and are soon subject to demonic possession, turning on and infecting each other one at a time. Mucho bloodshed ensues. Although low budget, this is a highly effective little production which offers near constant horror and nihilism without a moment to draw breath. It's extremely disturbing and extremely graphic, more so I thought than the real remake. The horror never lets up once it begins and the bloody mutilating special effects are extremely realistic. The cast are certainly put through their paces and as it turns out they're up to the job. My recommendation? Watch if you're a fan of graphic horror.
