Good, Not-so-clean Fun, but not as violent as it is hyped.

Rating: 8/10 (1 November 2004)

When you go to see this film, do not expect it to be the most violent film ever made. It was made on a budget of $90,000 resulting in fake-looking gore. Most of the violence is also too comical and over the top to be taken seriously. However, as an example of how to make low-budget horror movies, this is one of the best. Featuring innovative camerwork, a creepy atmoshpere and a sinister soundtrack, the Evil Dead can either be watched to frighten you or just for the fun of watching Demons being hacked to pieces. It is not, however, as violent as George A. Romero's living dead trilogy.
