campy gorefest

Rating: Null/10 (25 January 2000)

aggressively bad, filled with buckets of blood, bad dialogue, indeterminate motivation, illogic galore, cheesy claymation, arbitrary camera angles . . . yet nonetheless a fun movie. for more of the same, check out the sequels (army of darkness perhaps the best), or darkman, also by raimi. for a horror movie so refined it isn't even obvious you're watching one, try _a simple plan_--also, inexplicably, by raimi.
