A great Splatter/Fun/Horror-Movie...!

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2000)

Evil Dead is for me one of the best Splatter/Horror films ever. The story is simple: A bunch of young, ordinary and healthy "Kids" make their holidays in a small cabin deep in the woods. After a short time they find an old book, a tape recorder and a knife or something like that. They decide to hear what is on the tape but unfortunately they call the ghosts of the wood. The only way to stop this demon force is to cut the bodies into small pieces.
The main character is Ash, which is played by the young Bruce Campbell. He did a very nice job, but the rest of the cast is good too. Sometimes they overact a little bit, but that's okay.
The special Make Up Designer did a great job. I have never seen such great gore effects like some of that which were shown here. And, I mean this Film is some years old.
So, if you like good Splatter-Films, with a nice bit of humour, this one is the right one.!
