Directed by: Fede Alvarez
Starring: Jane Levy, Lou Taylor Pucci, Jessica Lucas, Shiloh Fernandez
Genres: Horror
Factual error: Near the end, Mia discovers the chainsaw in the toolshed. Glancing around, she sees a clear plastic bottle of sparkling bright blue fluid that looks like window cleaner but is marked "Chainsaw Gas." Real chainsaw fuel is a 1:40 mixture of 2-cycle motor oil (greenish-black in color) and gasoline (pinkish-amber in color), which produces a fuel that is olive-green in broad daylight. In the darkened shed where Mia finds the chainsaw, the "Chainsaw Gas" in the bottle should not appear sparkling blue, but should appear very dark green, even with artificial light behind it.

Trivia: If you sit through the entire end credits there is a small additional scene showing Bruce Campbell turning towards the camera and saying his trademark phrase "Groovy" from Evil Dead II.
