Classic

Rating: 10/10 (17 March 1999)

This movie is SO much better than almost every demon movie I have ever seen. It has been imitated so many times, I have lost count. Sure, it isn't as funny or high budget as its sequels, but it set the pace for things to come. It is definitely a horror landmark, and I can safely say this because of its cult following. It's really hard to explain the experience of watching "The Evil Dead" to someone who hasn't seen it. After you have actually watched it, you will immediately notice all the imitations and quotes other films have taken from it. I will admit that "Evil Dead 2" is better, but only because it is basically an incredible remake of the first one, "The Evil Dead."
