Sam Raimi did not do a favor to himself with this! ***SPOILER ALERT***

Rating: Null/10 (28 July 2001)

I´m a die hard-fan of Sam Raimi´s immortal cult classic "Evil Dead", which is in my opinion one of the greatest horror movies ever made!! I also liked "Evil Dead II", but unfortunately something went wrong with this second sequel, cuz "Army of Darkness" contains a humor that is not witty and jokes I can´t laugh about! It is neither frightening nor bizarre trash in any way..! The one and only positive thing I can tell about this film is, that the skeletons are an excellent homage to the great special F/X of the legendary Ray Harryhausen. The rest of "Army of Darkness" however is dull and silly! Okay, Bridgette Fonda has a cameo appearance and Bruce Campbell is as great as usual, but if you wanna see real funny horror trash comedies check out Frank Henenlotter´s "Basket Case" or "Frankenhooker", as well as "Mother´s Day" or Peter Jackson´s "Bad Taste".
