Evil Dad

Rating: 9/10 (17 March 2003)

In my life I saw 2 movies who scared the sh*t out of me. The first one was CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, in '79. The other was EVIL DEAD, a few years later. Although HOLOCAUST is even harder, EVIL DEAD still is one of my favourites. The story is origineel, and it's perfect directed by Sam Riaimi, who also directed movies such as THE GIFT (with Keano Reeves). Bruce Campbell is excellent as Ash, a man who doesn't know what danger's ahead. Remarquable is the fact that a member of the Riami family also plays a role in the movie. Really scary music. This movie is a must for every horror freak like me, but still I've got to say that you've gotta be careful with the UNCUT-version. At the backside you see Ash without a leg, but that scene isn't in the movie on that particular tape. Be sure it's really UNCUT before you buy it, is my advice. BTW: don't spend your money at the CUT-version. It's a worthless piece of junk.
