Fun, fun, fun, till the deadites take your soul away!

Rating: Null/10 (22 January 2001)

This is perhaps my favorite watchable movie of all time. It's always fun, always a laugh, and totally enjoyable. Though I think that the viewer is best served by watching all movies in chronological order, AoD also works as a fine stand alone movie, which is how I first watched it.
Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi's sence of slapstick makes it the funniest thing since Blazing Saddles in the comedy genre, and the special effects were for the time the most complicated use of animatrons. With a falling out of animatronics for use in crowd scences, it'll probably remain a unique landmark.
The best part, I feel, about AoD is the fact that it's good for watching over and over. I usually can't stand movies a second time around. The buildups become tedious, the relationship conflicts trite. But this movie, with it's almost militant sence of humour, is the perfect thing to pull out when nothing good is on. Watch it with friends.
