Summary: ED2 keeps it in the cabin, like it should be!
Review: Easily the best movie in the series. Although the first is a genuine classic, poor acting and nominal budget make it a little more subversive than it really needed to be. Army of Darkness as a horror movie made a fairly mindless but likeable comedy...Raimi waited til A Simple Plan to really infuse suspense back into his flix. The happy median is this ED2, with smarter humor and appeal than the third (the hiding-behind-a-door-to-outrun-an-evil-entity trick comes to mind) but with enough suspense for those who remembered when Linda was not Bridget Fonda. Heck, Raimi even throws in the proverbial kitchen sink (well, it's an oven) at the end. If you really want to shop SMart, choose Evil Dead 2.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Very Dissapointed!
Review: I've seen Army of Darkness so many times....And I've never saw Evil Dead, or Evil Dead 2. I figuered that since Army of Darkness had grown to be one of my favorite movies ever that this one would be cool as well. In fact I came here first to read customer reviews....Most of them seemed to say best out of the 3 movies! Well, I say thats a lie! Evil Dead 2, had very little dialouge, the acting was like ½ as good as Army of Darkness, and it wasnt nearly as funny.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Evil dead 2
Review: Warning.This film comes in three parts. Evil dead 1, 2 and the Army of Darkness. Each part can be seen seperatly, but for the best effect watch together, I have also seen 2 endings to the last part of this film. If you are interested in hearing about them mail me. These films are one of my all time favourites. This is a horror, suspence, comedy, film. Lots of blood. Also lots of really violent film deletions, or should I say sensoring. If you are unlucky enough to get a sensored version, then I would be very sorry for you, but this film doesn't rely on scenes's of incredible viloence anyway. so still worth the buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A difinitive classic
Review: I have been a big fan of this movie ever since I got a big poster of the movie in the mail featuring the huge menacing skull. Evidently I was receiving free posters and "not for resale" copies of movies because somebody thought I was a movie rental outlet or something. After I put the poster up on my wall to my parents dismay, I rented the movie. After the first viewing, I wasn't sure what to make of it except that it was very different and new. This movie grows on you like a tumor. I've watched it so many times in the last 10 years, and the more I watch it, the funnier it gets. Many a night, my friends and I have drank, watched this film, and laughed so hard that tears would be evident. This is one of my favorites. I think everyone I shared it with has also loved it. Horror? Comedy? Evil Dead2. It's in a class of its' own.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Horror?
Review: Well, I think this movie isn't about horror. It's just a kind of child's playing! This is a real ridiculous movie. my advice? don't buy it!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: EVIL DEAD 2, MY FAVORITE HORROR/COMEDY MOVIE EVERRRRR
Review: Hey Kiddiez, you want goo/blood/guts/gore/gruesome/meat/beef, then you better get your hands on this movie. It is the best of the Evil Dead movies by far. It has a lot of comic relief for squirmish people like when his hand beats his head with plates and knox him out. La pelicula "Evil Dead 2" es gran. You have to see this movie, see it, no , BUY IT, YES. you don't even need to see it before you buy it, it is worth every penny I paid for it and then some. One of the most random deaths for a decapitated head, getting stuck in a clamp and then getting a chainsaw to tha dome (jonathan voice from the movie we made when he says boot to the dome). Please get this movie so I don't have to keep telling you people what you need to do, its great, buy it now. Bruce Campbell deserves an award for his performance, even though he only had about 17 speeking lines. Ok, i'm cruizin for a bruizin if I don't get off, so later yo, eat it up.

Summary: The best Horror film sequel of all time
Review: Evil Dead 2 is almost a remake of Evil Dead. But who cares.....the Friday the 13th movies are all the same too. Like the first, a group of people are trapped in a mountain cabin and are forced to kill each other due to demonic possession. Director Raimi combines horror and black comedy elements to create one sick and yet funny film. The acting has improved since the first Evil Dead and so has the style. My only complaint, didn't Ash get possessed at the end of Evil Dead? Oh well. If you loved Evil Dead, then get this. Followed by the comedy (no, I don't think of it as horror movie) sequel, Army of Darkness.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EVIL DEAD 2 is GRRREEAAAAAAATTTTTTt
Review: What a greasy movie! so good, so good. So much goo, so much goo. So funny, Bruce Campbell is HIGHLY underrated acttor. This movie has so much MEAT that yoou may begin to crave bloody goo. The best part is when the girl eats the eyeball and the guy gets lightbulb to tha dome. My gosh I laughed so hard at this movie. So you, the uneducated buyer of B Gradez may ask in a british voice, "IS THIS A COMEDY?" Well, not exactly, "IS IT SCARY?" no not at all! "IS IT GGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTT?" Yes very much so so good in fact I now have a Bruce Campbell mullet to show my appreciation everywhere I go. Buy this, then buy Pieces, then buy Jack Frost, no no no not tha Michael Keaton one! the one about the snowman who rips people's domez off. Back to ED2, buy it, ok the guy gets a chainsaw for an arm,there is mad goo, what more could ya want. I'm out...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 stars for pure film skill and entertainment value!
Review: If I headed a studio and was told I would have a masterpiece if I backed a film with a horror plot about demonic corpses rising from the ground and a hero doing prat falls without nearly a full page of dialogue to fill the first 40 minutes...I'd have blown my top and canned the project. Here is a true work of art and genius putting full creative effort from a talented crew into a movie that redefines its genre, and does it perfectly. Most of the filming and editing is so tight and ingenious it will boggle minds for decades to come. A schmorgesbord of special effects techniques, oddly over exaggerated reactions and reality bending sets show that every scene, EVERY FRAME!, of this film is crammed with creative thought brought to life. Perhaps the most telling value of this film is how it almost always will grab a casual viewer/passerby similar to a fly stuck in honey: once you glimpse this film playing you must watch to the end. This is the only horror film I can safely put on the pedastal with 'Casablanca', 'M', 'Death Wish III' or 'Citizen Kane'. Some serious horror buffs and drama lovers can't wrap their minds around this film, but that just shows their limited capability of enjoying films that are purely entertaining.
