Summary: Ted Raimi was punished
Review: This is a pretty short film (or at least it is compared to all the other films I own), so I'll keep the review short. Evil Dead II is typical Sam Raimi, there is an abundance of flair and wit, there is a lot of gore (of all colours(not colors, I'm English). The tone is set early on and it builds to an interesting conclusion , it leaves you wondering, it left me wanting more. The story is not really anything that breaks new ground, but this doesn't matter, the way the film is made and the way that it uses the elements of the story is fresh, or at least this is the case for me. The commentary is fun and interesting and the featurette, although a sign of the age in which it was made, is also good. Many people think that this film is overrated, that's down to them. Everyone is different, and in the end it's whether you like it or not that counts. Just to let you know, I like this.

Summary: The Classicest of Cult Classics
Review: The teaming of Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell is, to say the least, an extremely animated collaboration. Raimi's unique and riveting visual style matched with Campbell's brilliant physical acting bring life (or perhaps "undeadness") and humor to an otherwise mindless gore film. The plot is weak. The dialogue is horribly lame. There are quite a few technical flaws. But don't let these things trouble you; they actually add to the hilarity that gives Evil Dead II its charm.-B

Summary: I absolutely love this film
Review: If I get bored and cannot choose a movie to watch...I will always find myself reaching for this one. It is watchable anytime of day, over and over...rotate between evil dead and this one and you can't go wrong. It starts out with Ash and his girlfriend traveling to the old house in the woods. The film doesn't hesitate to jump into the good stuff. I mean it almost starts out like the cheesiest camp-fest with the two lovey dovey people exchanging rotten lines, but Sam Raimi takes care of that garbage with a quickness. All hell breaks loose within 3 minutes of the film's beginning and then the laughs...Never have I seen comedy and horror mix so well as I have in this film. You have your serious horror directors like Lucio Fulci delivering scares in the brilliant "The Beyond" and Argento's "Suspiria", but those films could never evoke a laugh or else it would ruin the movie. Raimi does this seemlessly without ruining a thing. Brilliant possessions, demons, chainsaws, hands, etc... I just can't say enough...go watch it if you haven't yet and if you are sifting through your dvd's or vhs's trying to find something good to watch...just go for what you know! It's a winner everytime!!! Trust me or I'll swallow your soul!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Muah ha ha!
Review: Quite possibly the best horror movie ever made! Most modern horror movies just throw gore at you to get you to respond. But this movie works on so many levels. A definate 10 on the gross out meter. A definate 10 on the laugh meter. A definate 10 on the spooky meter. Completely original, the Evil Dead series have a certain 'feel' to them, (for lack of a better word). I had a 17 year-old girl come up to me a couple of weeks ago and said that she saw the scariest movie in the world and she just loved it. She said that movie was Evil Dead. I told her that I thought Evil Dead 2 was the best of the 3, but that Army of Darkness, (the 3rd in the trilogy), was pretty good too. She flipped out and begged me to let her borrow my Evil Dead 2 Special Edition. I let her use it upon the condition that she watched it with a bunch of her friends. As far as the DVD version goes...everything on this disk is worth checking out. The BEST part of the disk? The audio commentary with Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell. Still the best I've ever heard on a DVD. If you like Evil Dead 2...this will quickly become one of your favorite DVDs that you will watch over and over again. If you've never seen any of the Evil Dead movies...rent all 3 and watch them in sequence. Otherwise, watch Evil Dead 2 by itself, and you'll definately want to check out the others :) P.S. I have 2 versions...this version and the Tin boxed set which will remain sealed. One to watch and one to collect :)

Summary: and then there was doom.
Review: A very important movie, and one of the funniest I have ever seen. One of the few films I enjoy more with each viewing. Jim Carrey obviously took several lessons in physical comedy from Bruce Campbell and this film... too bad he became the megastar and Bruce is still more of a "cult" favorite. Maybe it's cooler that way. Watch the film, and you'll know where the inspiration for the "Doom" video game came from.

Summary: Way over the top...in a good way
Review: Want to see who can take it? Then rent this and gather as many prudes as you can and just watch the room clear out. If you get offended by this movie, possibly the funniest comedy/horror ever filmed then maybe you should also be under the "Earthen floor of the fruit cellar!"

Summary: SO GOOD !!!
Review: A true gem, fun to watch. Bruce Campbell's performance is simply astonishing here, nearing perfection !! It's a shame his career didn't develop better after this and ARMY OF DARKNESS. As for the history, plain of fun and great technical qualities for the director.

Summary: expected one thing, got another.....
Review: Being a horror flic lover, I was anxiously awaiting this movie to come to the big screen! The first Evil Dead scared me and I was looking forward to being that way again. Skipped school, hopped on the bus and went to the mall to see the afternoon showing. I left the theatre confused. Where was the scary stuff? why was I laughing instead of being frightened to death? Mr Raimi and co. went for the comedic brilliance that I didn't understand when I was 15, but have grown to enjoy. Effects were amazing for the time and this was the movie where Ash was coming into his own with his character.
