Did you like The Evil Dead? Then my friend, you are in luck! Evil Dead 2 is a bigger, better sequel in every way.
After a quick re-cap/revision of the events of the first movie, Evil Dead 2 is off and running, and it never slows down. The movie picks up immediately after the original ended, with Ash shaken, alone, and still under attack from the terror unleashed by the Book of the Dead.
Evil Dead 2 is more over-the-top (if that's even possible) than the first Evil Dead, and it's more hilarious, as a result. The fake blood flows by the gallon and the Deadites are more gruesome. This is a movie that's just fun, fun, fun to watch. There's a bit of a trade-off, as there's less "genuine" horror, but as far as pure entertainment goes, there is no real contest about which movie is better. If you liked the first, you should love the second. If you loved the original, well, get ready to meet your new soul-mate.
