Evil Dead
Reviewed by "The Mystery Reviewer"Five young adults go to a cabin for some quiet good times. Their plan is foiled when they accidentally awaken some pissed off demons. The demons do some possessing, and the 5 young adults are trapped with evil at their side.
A horror classic, and boy is this flick messy! What sets this movie apart from other bloodfests is the way Sam Rami, the Director, approaches it. The directing in this film is outstanding: Kinetic, energetic, relentless, and even artistic. This film is filled with shocking scenes and never holds back. A woman gets raped by trees [whatever], people get hacked to pieces, hands get chewed off... you name it, it's here.
Yes,some of the dialogue feels a bit out dated. Yes,the characters do the occasional dumb thing [like investigate that strange noise]. The "homemade" effects actually increase the disturbing quotient of the film.
This movie does it all. It creeps you out, has you on the edge of your seat, grosses you out, and has your mouth drop with its hyper style. This is pure horror, so go out and rent it.
I bet you'll enjoy it!
