 Rated 5 out of 5!
The Greatest
I was six years old when I watched the original, which was OK. I was about 11 years old when Evil Dead 2 was released. I wasn’’t expecting much, was I in for a surprise. From start to end this was sheer class the story was the same as the original but Sam Raimi definitely did his home work on this one, everything from the setting, lighting and directing was spot on. The action never stopped, the violence is on another level, no wonder the movie was censored in the UK I even remember the debate on central live television regarding the release of this movie the censors were appalled saying the movie is too extreme, but this is a horror comedy. . Everything about this movie is brilliant fans world wide agree. Our hero is beaten black and blue, almost driven to insanity and even has his hand cut off (great) no other movie has ever done this before. This movie paved the way how horror movies should be made, how can people compare the likes of those unwatchable Italian rip offs to this master class, this is every gore hounds dream. An Essential DVD.- Rated 5 out of 5!
The Best
This is simply the best horror/comedy movie of all time. Unlike Evil Dead which takes it self too seriously and just comes off as laughable, this doesn’’t and at the time it was quite unique for a horror movie. This has much more gore, the violence is wickedly twisted, an action packed sequel. It’’s no wonder that this sequel has spawned fans world wide. The story is virtually the same as the original but that were the similarities end. An essential DVD for anyone’’s collection, every scene is memorable and the lines are super cool, people expecting a serious affair best stay away. If you like your horror movies twisted, violent, and bloody gory this is the one for you. This is no cheap Italian wannabe. - Rated 5 out of 5!
Remeber it is a cult classic
If your not a Bruce Campbell or Sam Raimi fan this "B" movie will either annoy you or turn you into a fan. The people who wrote bad reviews on this disk turned down the wrong road when they thought they were getting into realistic serious horror. This movie was not meant to be taken seriously; if you take it seriously you will be very dissapointed This is slapstick cheesy horror comedy at it’’s best. Bruce Campbell’’s one liners make the whole Evil Dead trilogy worth watching.
