Sam Raimi at his very best

Rating: 9/10 (12 July 2017)

Lately I've been binge watching tons of 80s horror films and this movie is by far the very best.
With the first film being as terrific as it is, its no wonder fans (and Stephen King) demanded a sequel. Sam Raimi could have done what every other horror movie sequel writer does, replicate the plot of the first film and throw in some lazy jump scares, but instead Sam Raimi took what made "The Evil Dead" brilliant and added some humor (and a demonic hand!) and made a movie more iconic than its predecessor.
After the very confusing flashback sequence, that makes you stop and think "is this idiot stupid enough to go back to that cabin", you are taken along on the continuing story of Ash Williams and the evil dead.
The movie is not likely to keep you up at scared at night, but it will induce some mighty laughs. This horror movie sequel is as "groovy" as they come.
