Classic B-Grade Movie!!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (1 April 2002)

This movie, contrary to my beliefs, does not have the greatest special effects of its time. It still is an outstanding movie, despite its low-budget. It delivers and it delivers it hard, shunning out any other B-movie that I can think of. It stars the underrated Bruce Campbell as the one-line-spitting-shotgun-blasting-chainsaw-hacking Ash Williams. This movie, being one of his only starring rolls next to the other Evil Dead movies, is creative and funny. It isn't as gory or scary as the first Evil Dead movies but keep in mind it also has a completely different plot. The first 2 were located in a cabin in the woods and this one is located in a barren area in medieval times. Theres not much that I can find that bothers me about this movie except that the end of Evil Dead 2 is different than what is shown the beginning of Army of Darkness. The end of Evil Dead 2 shows Ash saving people from a flying beast and the beginning of AOD shows him as a slave, but you can't let that ruin the movie. It is a great movie and my favorite at that and I look forward to Campbell starring in a leading roll sometime soon. RATING **** out of ****
