Rating: 10/10 (15 August 2019)

The first Evil Dead is still the most terrifying bloody scary movie from the 80's of all time. It is one of the greatest horrror films of all time my personal favorite it is in my top 10 favorite horror films. Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead to me is the best of best masterpiece terrifying terror on a widescreen ever. I saw this film on VHS when I was 9 years old and I was so terrified that I have not watch this movie for over 20 years.
Sam Raimi and his roommate friend Bruce Campbell from college invasted their saving money in to making "The Evil Dead" movie. This movie was made on alow budget money Rami and Campbell could not effort better a big group of actors, or better effects, but with super low budget this movie works.
"We're going to get you. We're going to get you. Not another peep. Time to go to sleep. "
I love this movie to death it was shot in Tennessee in the early winter 80's in the cabin, the cabin in which the movie was shot is burned down. I love, love this movie to death. It is a personal horror film of mine. There were three movies made: Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness and remake. My favorite will always be the first one, because it is more scary, has no humor. Really believable everyone making this movie did a good job.
Bruce Campbell's acting performence is the best of the film,I like him more in this movie than in the sequels. In this movie Ash Williams is not a super hero with a chainsaw and a shotgun. He is a normal human being, he cares about his friends, he is not a selfish tough guy like in the sequels, he is a normal guy. He dosen't know what to do and he has to fight for survival against evil demons and spirits posessing his friends. Just like in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood when Tina accidently releases Jason from his cell and now she haa to fight to put him back there where he belongs in his cell. In here Ash, his sister and his friends accidently unleashes evil demons and spirits and now Ash has to fight for his survival to get them back there where they belong in the cell.
The story is a basic cabin in the woods story about a group of college kids who get more than they bargained for when they accidentally release a few demons on their trip to the country. As you might assume, all hell breaks loose and Raimi really proves himself as a director combining horror and comedy elements that both work. The horror is genuinely creepy. Not to mention how well the film is shot with great framing and tremendous high speed demon POV shots that fly through the woods around the cabin with reckless abandon. It's a fascinating first effort, impressively well crafted and holds up very well despite its age.
I love how the film was shot the filming locations I like the other cast beside Bruce Campbell. Ellen Sandweiss was excellent as Cheryl Williams love her performence I did not know Cherly was actually Ash's sister because she was never mentioned in the sequels later. Richard DeManincor as Scotty friend of Ash and Cheryl was really good. I like DeManincor's performence, I love Scotty he was a bad-ass in this movie. Betsy Baker as Linda was a babe she was really good as Ash's girlfriend I am wondering why she did not come back for the sequel. Theresa Tilly was a babe as Shelly I love her.
I love the effects, the blood, the creepines in this movie, the gore, death scens all are excellent. Evil Dead II and The Evil Dead are the best in the series I will still go for The Evil Dead as my favorite in the series. I love this film to death I recommend this film to any horror fan.
