The other notable villains include Cocaine Bear’s titular mama bear and Nicolas Cage’s campy Dracula in Renfield, who still fail to reach the chaotic energy and gory fervor of Evil Dead Rise’s Ellie. Ellie’s greatest competition for 2023 horror villain queen is the robotic M3GAN, whose PG-13 rampage is accompanied by a similar number of hilarious and iconic one-liners. In addition to Evil Dead Rise character Ellie, 2023’s horror slate has already unleashed some great villains that will go down as iconic evils. With stellar reviews and a record-breaking box office performance, Evil Dead Rise is a unique triumph among the slate of modern horror reboots, with its icon-in-the-making approach to the main villain and emotional beats helping it stand out within its own franchise and the larger lexicon of fun horror flicks. The fifth movie in Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead franchise, Lee Cronin’s Evil Dead Rise modernizes the lore and themes while progressing the larger story through new final girl Beth (Lily Sullivan) and her older sister Ellie (Sutherland), whose Deadite possession launches a demented rampage against her own children. WARNING! This article contains SPOILERS for Evil Dead Rise! Evil Dead Rise has introduced a new horror icon with Alyssa Sutherland’s Ellie, whose hilariously terrifying Deadite transformation beats 2023’s other horror movie villains thus far.
