The scariest horror film ever made

Rating: Null/10 (24 August 2003)

This, in my opinion, is the scariest film ever made. Its hugely intense, creepy atmosphere will have you jumping out of your seat with fright. The Evil Dead is an absolute masterpiece of film-making by Sam Raimi (who also directed the very entertaining Darkman, incidentally). If ever a movie will leave you sleeping with the lights on this is it. A must for any serious horror fan, this film ranks right up there with Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Exorcist in terms of importance for the genre. It spawned three sequels, both enjoyable but not nearly as awesome. If you didn't like either of them, don't let that put you off...this is a must-see horror classic.
