Truly, a sight for sore bones!

Rating: 7/10 (21 March 2009)

Ha ha ha ha! This film is so silly and awesome. I love all the stop motion creatures and the the sped up film effects. Bruce Campbell is awesome. He plays the part of Ash to the hilt and you can't help but go along for the ride.The script is very funny and there's also a lot of great physical comedy, too. The skeleton army is great and I love the fact that they are slightly disgruntled.
Yes, it's a homage to various other films in a way, but it's not overly reverential. It doesn't take itself too seriously and I think it's very hard to strike that balance of horror and comedy. To be fair, I would say that this is more of an adventure comedy, though.
Ultimately, if you can't let go and have a blast watching this then it probably doesn't say many good things about you.
"Well hello Mr. Fancy-pants!"
