Oh that hand!

Rating: 10/10 (16 August 2005)

Whether "Evil Dead II" was a remake or a sequel doesn't matter. What does is that it's an ultra-super-cool movie with every gross crazy thing that you could imagine! The plot (loosely) concerns Ash (Bruce Campbell) going back to the cabin and having to battle the evil spirits once again. But of course, the whole thing is really an excuse for a series of gags involving blood, eyeballs, and finally Ash's hand. In my opinion, the whole hand sequence should be registered as one of the greatest scenes in movie history, right alongside the Yellow Brick Road in "The Wizard of Oz" and Slim Pickens riding the bomb in "Dr. Strangelove". Only stuffy rich people would be incapable of liking this movie.
