One of the greatest horror films ever made

Rating: 10/10 (23 June 2012)

I'm not very much into gore films, but "The Evil Dead" trilogy, along with "Braindead" are some of my favorite horror movies.
Considering that this was a low budget production, the results are fairly impressive, with an incredible atmosphere of tension, fear and mystery. The story itself it's actually a bit too simple, and somewhat cheesy from certain perspective, but it's the way in which it is told what makes this so special.
I've seen many horror films during my whole life, but very few of them were so thrilling and fascinating as this movie, keeping an unique level from beginning to end, having some of the most memorable scenes that I've ever seen in any movie of this kind.
"The Evil Dead" is a great film, which can be easily compared with horror classics from the eighties, such as "The Shining", "A Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Hellraiser". A must see for fans of this genre.
