Good

Rating: 7/10 (2 March 2000)

This is a good movie, quite simply. It's very scary, and hilarious at some points. Many people miss the funny parts as they take it way to seriously. Evil Dead, whilem more serious then the other two movies, is not like the Exorcist or The Omen. It has it's moments, and is definetly one of the better horror movies of the 80's. One other thing I should mention: the budget is not around $50,000. It approaches $250,000, some estimates put it over the $300,000 range. So Halloween was actually made for LESS, but it looked slicker. I think this was an intentional (least partially) thing on Raimi's part. Kind of an atmospheric feel to it, this rawness. Of course, it might of just been his inexperience...
