"That's right... who's laughing now... who's laughing *now*?" ðŸŒ²

Rating: 10/10 (19 March 2020)

Sam Raimi was laughing all the way to the top of the comedy horror food chain when this was released in 1987, as he & his Renaissance Pictures cohorts set a new benchmark in b-moviemaking with this low-budget, immensely entertaining masterpiece. A rare exception to the rule "sequels are never as good as the original", here we see a super-talented director's vision fully realised in "groovy" ultra-violent sequences, pulling out every cinematic trick from his hat. How they perfectly blend thrills, laughs & surrealism into a bizarre and blistering 84 minute spectacle still shocks and rocks modern-day audiences and filmmakers alike.
10/10 dancing decapitated girlfriends.
