Better than Evil Dead, not as good as AOD

Rating: 8/10 (28 May 2000)

SPOILERS!
Evil Dead II, practically a remake of Evil Dead is a good movie, but not great. Ash, our favorite anti-hero from ED1 goes back to the woods with Linda, where they find the Necronomicon and all hell breaks loose. Now, the first one failed because it was too tedious, but ED2 doesn't really have that happen. The rift in space-time towards the end was a good twist, and so was that unforgettable part when Ash gets a chainsaw for a hand. Other than that, it's pretty much the same as ED1, which in some ways is good, and some ways is bad.(BTW, the acting improved by leaps and bounds) 8/10
