Once you've experienced The Evil Dead, your idea of horror films will change forever...

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 1999)

I saw this movie 10 years ago for the 1st time and it scared me. I saw it again the year after that and it had the same effect. Time went by and I decided to experience it one more time, the movie had the same effect. The Evil Dead is unique in its kind, there are other horror movies one watches one time and are scary, but the second time are not. Evil Dead never loses its magic, this movie will make your hands sweaty, the music will make you nervous, and the demonic laughter will make you want to turn of your TV. Evil Dead is the best horror film, ever made. Yes, there are others like The Exorcist or Rosemary's Baby that are all frightful movies. But Evil Dead is much better than those. The scene at the end, when Bruce Campbell is walking around the cabin all covered in blood is exquisite. He walks around scared, and while he's walking the music is slowly fading until it reaches total silence. Here's where the audience knows something is going to happen and it is just great when the two arms brake the front door and grab him from the back. Also the camera work is extraordinary. I recommend this movie to anyone wishing to watch an excellent horror movie.
