* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Mia survives and kills The Abomination but her brother and her friends are all dead and she ends up losing her hand. Also the book is still out there and due to the trauma she had throughout the movie Mia will probably go back to doing drugs.]]

* AsYouKnow: Averted; significant bits of exposition are given to us in the form of the other characters telling David things he bloody well ''should'' know, but doesn't because he wasn't there when he was needed.

''Evil Dead'' (2013) is the fourth movie in the ''Franchise/EvilDead'' franchise. Rather than continuing from ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness'', it is a functional remake of the original ''Film/TheEvilDead1981'', though it nominally takes place in the same universe, making it a sort of sequel. Unfortunately due to Bruce Campbell's retirement, a crossover is less than likely, but hey, this movie was made to be able to stand on its own anyway. With a DarkerAndEdgier tone than what we're used to, and a focus on the more disturbing elements. A sequel, ''Film/EvilDeadRise'', is scheduled for release in April 2023, directed and written by Creator/LeeCronin, who replaces Alveraz. Raimi and Campbell will return as executive producers.

** WordOfGod states that [[spoiler:this movie and ''Series/AshVsEvilDead'', an official sequel to the original trilogy, do indeed take place in the same universe, and that the creators like the idea that Mia might pop up in the series eventually, or Ash might make more than a cameo in a future movie.]]

* RealityEnsues: A very minor example during the Deadite attack in the bathroom. Deadite Olivia viciously goes for Eric's eye with a syringe. Not only does the needle not make it through his glasses lens, but it breaks off and gets embedded off-target, completely averting the expected EyeScream. Syringes, as it turns out, aren't knives and will break if mishandled.

* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Watch out for yellow eyes.

* BittersweetEnding: Mia survives and kills The Abomination but her brother and her friends are all dead and she ends up losing her hand. Also the book is still out there and due to the trauma she had throughout the movie Mia will probably go back to doing drugs.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent : While Deadites throughout the franchise were never exactly pleasant creatures, the ones in this film are straight up malicious, the deadites seem to delight in keeping their hosts aware enough to see and feel what the host is doing, evidenced by one making a girl clearly watch in horror as it makes her mutilate her own face, and giving a false HopeSpot to another by letting her cut off her own arm, but, in an inversion to the original attempt in the franchise, it possesses her anyway, these ones actually seem much more fond of Self Mutilation and seriousness, than the Evil, prankster stylings of the Original Trilogies, they also look different, gone are the milky white eyes and inhuman growls, replaces with sickly yellow iris and a werid demonic insectile chirping sound.

* StealthSequel: [[spoiler: If one takes TheStinger with its appearance of Ash seriously, this means that this ''is'' a sequel to the original Evil Dead trilogy, just involving some new bastards getting into the same mess that Ash did so long ago.]]

* BaitAndSwitch: The entire ColdOpen. [[spoiler:We're set up to sympathize with the girl being hunted by what appear to be villainous country folk, only to then find out that said girl is possessed by a Deadite and previously killed her mother, and the kidnappers doing so at the request of her father, who wishes to put his beloved daughter out of her misery.]]

* EyeColorChange: Just before possessed!Mia tackles Olivia, her eyes change color.

--> '''Olivia''': No, come on, slumber party isn't over yet.
--> '''Mia''': Yeah, we still haven't played “Fuck, Marry, Kill”, right?
