Rating: Summary: Classic Experience in Grueling Terror Review: Sam Rami's directorial debu and still his most raw and frightening film. Just the soundtrack is nerve wracking enough to set your teeth on edge. I saw this alone as a kid in the middle of the night and it terrified me! Check it out...
Rating: Summary: Gore at it's finest! Review: Sam Raimi had a very dark vision. And he made this movie to make it come to life. Bruce Campbell steals the show in what has become known as his finest hour. For a low budget movie the effects aren't all that bad, and the excellent cinematography will blow you away. There is one scene that will absolutely leave your head spinning, the world's only scene in which a person is [hurt] by a tree. That alone sets the tone for the rest of the movie. I seriously recomend this to all gore fans who have yet to see it.

Rating: Summary: More than just a movie to me. Review: Forget all the extras, which are really good additions, and get down to the film itself. It is difficult to put into words how much I like this movie. The combination of gore and the manner in which it is presented, as well as the shocks thrown at us, an eerie score, and a dark atmosphere makes this an exceptional movie. The low-budget feel of the movie presents a much more likeable movie than the modern teen-slashers. Evil Dead exhibits a creativeness that is unlike any movie I have ever seen. The story tells of a few college friends who travel into a cabin in the woods for a weekend of fun. Even before they get there there is a sign of an evil presence, but it goes unacknowledged. Once there they awaken an evil spirit that manages to kill 3 people-and make a hero and in icon of the last one. This movie opened me to horror movies when I first saw it in July of 1999, for the first time. It also inspired me to want to become a filmmaker. Evn if you don't like the movie, more than likely, you'll respect it.

Rating: Summary: GROOVY!! Review: Little known (to those who only watch mainstream cinema) horror/cult classic about 5 college friends who try to "get away from it all" by spending a weekend shacked up in a cabin in a forest in the middle of nowhere. However, after discovering an old audio tape containing a recorded message that when played causes evil spirits to come forth from the Netherworld in search of those who disturbed their peaceful slumber, the friends find their little weekend getaway turning into their worst nightmares brought to life. One by one the friends are killed by the vengeful demons only to become demons themselves, until only Ash (Bruce Campbell) is left standing to conquer the evil spirits. "The Evil Dead" is truly one of the best, and wildest, horror/cult films ever made. Originally, a box office failure when theatrically released in 1983, the film has since become a huge underground hit and eventually became popular enough to spawn two very worthy sequels, "Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn" (1987) & "Army of Darkness" (1993). The "Evil Dead" trilogy, along with Romero's "Living Dead" films, is perhaps the best example of a horror film's ability to evolve if given the chance to do so. The first "Evil Dead" film is played off as strictly being a horror film filled with blood and guts and a very slight touch of humor. "Evil Dead 2", while technically a continuation of part one, is more like a remake of the first film with a much greater amount of camp humor and slapstick comedy thrown in around the elements of terror. The third (and best in my opinion) film of the trilogy is "Army of Darkness". This one is quite different from the first two films in that it takes place during the dark ages (one will have to view the end of part two to understand how the change in time and place has occurred), and that the element of horror has now all but disappeared from the storyline, having been replaced almost entirely by the highly absurd (but also highly entertaining) camp humor and wild slapstick first brought to the series in the second film, with a hint of sword & sorcery and swashbuckling elements thrown in for good measure. The three films in the "Evil Dead" saga are by far the best career efforts by Director Raimi and Actor/Producer Campbell. Yes, the "Evil Dead" films truly are minor masterpieces in their own right and should be seen atleast once by every film buff. I personally recommend watching all three films back-to-back, along with Romero's "Living Dead" trilogy. Now there's a real "fright film fest"!
Rating: Summary: We're gonna get ya....We're gonna get ya!!! Review: OOOh this movie!!! I was 14 years old, all the lights were on, my mom was ironing clothes right beside me and this movie scared the bejesus out of me!!!!!! Now, 32 years old and it is what I consider a Classic. From the nice pencil in the ankle scene to the beheading with the shovel. This movie rocks! "Why have you disturbed our sleep, destroyed our ancient slumber.....YOU WILL DIE!!! One by one we will take you......" Whew! That line still gives me chills. A nice horror flic. A beginning to the Ash legacy that lives today. Get this tape!!!
Rating: Summary: A must have Review: The best horror film ever made makes it to the great status of DVD! A horrifying, intense movie. With options, all Deadites need to but this.
Rating: Summary: "Join Us!" Review: Sam Raimi's film will grip you by the throat, make your heart pound, and keep you at the edge of your seat. Bruce Campbell is just lovable as the ever bumbling, almost cowardly Ash. This is one of the best horror films I have ever seen.
