Evil Dead, revisionist hype and the abuse of superlatives

Rating: 1/10 (30 May 2006)

This is, without any doubt, one of the worst films ever made. I'm not a film snob or punk trying to antagonize the deluded legion of dupes who idolize this piece of garbage. I'm just trying to provide balance to the roars of approval for this not-at-all-good "film." Seriously people, have you even watched this stupid thing? It is AWFUL (and not even in an "Ed Wood meets Dead Alive meets tongue-in-cheek" way)! There is, and I want this to be crystal clear, NOTHING GOOD ABOUT THIS MOVIE! NOTHING...ZERO...ZILCH!!! Save your stars (seriously, TEN stars for this crap - ARE YOU INSANE?!) for a movie that delivers...anything. Can we please relegate Sam Raimi and this "train wreck" to the pile of hyped up hacks and "cult faves" where they belong?!
