Be Careful What You Listen to... it might Kill You !!!!
3 years ago, one of my friends invited me over to his house to watch a movie, this movie was called The Evil Dead.. Well about 15 minutes into the movie, I decided that I didn't want to watch it, I have somewhat of a short attention span, and besides, I would much rather have been playing Mega Man X on his Super Nintendo.. Well I never did get to watch the rest of the movie, years after that I only got to see snippets of the movie, but I did watch the sequel to it.. So just a couple of months ago when I stayed in a hotel with a small selection of movies for rental, The Evil Dead caught my eye, so I decided to give it the chance that I never gave it, and man was I in for a shocker !!!!!

so solve this equation for me; what do you get when you have Bruce Campbell, a bunch of no name actors, a cabin in the forests of Tennessee, and plenty of Oatmeal, Milk and colored water
If you guessed "The Evil Dead ", then you are correct.
That may sound like a strange list of stuff to make a movie out of, but when you have virtually no budget to work with you've gotta make the best with what you've got.
The gr8 thing about "The Evil Dead " is that the movie relies on originality much more than special effects, that's something I can't say about most modern films.

This film deals with demonic possession, and this is executed extremely well.
These demons look pretty well considering the budget, even though some of the gore looked pretty fake.
The demons aren't all that the main characters have to face out in the woods, the trees are alive and even manage to "rape " a girl that gets caught in their evil branches that look more like small twigs.
Just expect to see a whole lot of over the top gore while watching this movie, I'd go so far as to say that some of this gore is not even needed, not many times in this movie is there just a little blood, but buckets of blood could fly in just a single scene.

The Evil Dead is one of my favorite horror films.
The film was made with less than $5,000.00 and I consider this film to be one of the scariest horror films ever made.
That's quite an accomplishment for a young director with a young actor and friend Bruce Campbell using just five grand.
I think Sam Raimi knew he had a good spooky movie but not even he could have known how huge this movie would become.
"The Evil Dead " was a phenomenal block buster hit and it continues rent and sell very well to this day, nearly twenty-five years later.
I re-watched the movie last night and even by today's standards the film is still pretty good.
Although it didn't have the impact that it made on me the first time I saw...
The story was good and the movie freaked me out.
The story was as good as it gets for a scary film.
Camping, woods, demons, naive young people, chainsaw and no way out makes gr8 ingredients for a classic horror film storyline.

It goes to show that you need a good story more than all of the special effects and computer graphics that money can buy.
Some of the very best horror films are low budget films, The Evil Dead, The Blair Witch Project, Phantasm, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Tourist Trap are just a few that come to mind.
The first Evil Dead film spawned two more sequels that I did not like as much as the original.
Sam Raimi did an outstanding job directing this film with what he had.
The acting was pretty good.
The story was as good as it gets.
The camera work was good too.
They had to use some imagination and innovation to come up with ways to get the camera moving through the woods at high speeds.
The make up was excellent.
These possessed girls looked freaky and scary.
It was not as good as Linda Blair's make up in the The Exorcist but close.

For not having much of a budget the possessions, blood, guts and gore looked realistic and spooky.
There is plenty of it too.
The demons can only be killed by cutting off the arms, legs and heads of those possessed.
Although most areas suffered because of the very low budget the film was and still is a huge success.
The film was low quality, the actors and actresses were very new and it showed.
But the story, the make up, the setting the directing and demon possessions made up for it
If you like to be scared by a movie you've probably already seen this one.
If you have not seen The Evil Dead you should just to see what a motivated director can do with a solid story, very little money and a gr8 imagination.
I give The Evil Dead five of five stars and look forward to the remake in 2007.

As you may have realized by now, this is a really gory flick.
It isn't for the weak stomached.
The audience's pleasure is based solely on the pain of the main character, Ash.
Try not to be drinking milk or eating oatmeal while watching this movie.
You may not be able to hold it down.
I really enjoyed this movie, and I don't know why.
Maybe it was because it is such an early film, without so much of Hollywood's special effects.
This film had to rely on its fear factor, and did a good job.
I can see why this film has become such a cult classic.
Go out and rent a copy.
Watch it late at night.


Get a little wacky and go down in the basement...oh wait, I wouldn't do that if I were you......
