The
Evil Dead (Book Of The Dead)
“The
Ultimate Experience in Grueling Terror”
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
The Evil Dead is a fright-ride that is
much like a roller coaster. Directed by Sam Raimi (Spider-Man,
Army of Darkness, Darkman) and starring Bruce Campbell
(Army of Darkness, “Hercules: Legendary Journeys”,
“Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.”), Hal Delrich,
Sarah York, Ellen Sandweiss, and Betsy Baker, The Evil Dead makes
the terror lift the hairs on your arms then settles down to gain momentum
for another terror-attack. The movie was filmed on a very low budget
of $90,000 and shot on location in Morristown, Tennessee for the first
twelve weeks of shooting. The plot centers around an old cabin in
the woods that five college students are renting for the weekend…what
they don’t know is that there is something evil lurking in the
woods. This movie is fun to watch, even if it doesn’t scare you,
it is full of interesting camera angles and multi-colored blood and
bile. A cheap B-movie, maybe, but The Evil Dead still remains
an all time favorite to many.
Also recommended is the commentary on the DVD.
