WOW

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2001)

I first heard of the EVIL DEAD series when I saw a review of one of the new DVDs last year. I searched the IMDB for more info and got it, telling myself, "You gotta see these movies." Well, it took a few months, and I didn't get around to it until a friend asked me if I'd ever heard of Evil Dead II. I told him yes, and I'd been meaning to see them. He told me they were pretty good, and so I finally got to the local Movie Gallery(ED1 was out at Blockbuster) and watched them over a weekend in December. They blew me away. Evil Dead II stood out, however. I don't know if it was because of the style it was shot, the humor, action, horror, or what, but EDII had quickly become my favorite movie. Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell are my heroes, and I watch the DVD( a must for anyone) almost weekly. This movie is the definitive movie for casual, obsessed, etc. fans everywhere. It must be seen to believe.
