Of Horny Woods & Chainsaws

Rating: 8/10 (23 September 2017)

Naturally, I should wait till I write my review number 666, but it would take too long ;)
Sam Raimi's Evil Dead and Evil Dead II belong like Romero's Dawn of the Dead to the great (forbidden fruits, I was too young to watch those pieces officially but I did it anyway - I dare to say that my bad VHS copy of a VHS copy of a copy made the movie even more "devilish" and precious to me) pleasures of my young life then, and still, from time to time, I rewatch these masterpieces of entertaining horrors.
The Evil Dead movies combine demonic horror, splatter, gore and elements of comedy with great skill and I guess every director who ever made a horror-comedy movie after did watch those two movies. For me, the first one of the trilogy of the deadnites is the best one.
Bruce Campbell played the role of his life in those movies and with the new show Ash vs. Evil Dead, he is on top as a B-movie actor again.
