Set in the deep murky backwoods of america, this cult classic has been largely ignored due to it's remake under the title Evil Dead 2. This is the original though, and it contains all the hallmarks of a low budget-cult classic.
The murkey woods and suspicous camera angles, all make for spectacular film, that is on par with some of todays movie offerings such as Titanic, Pearl Harbour, and anything with Leonardo DiCaprio in it.
In short this film will have you loving it for the sheer tackiness of the sets, the makeup, the script, the acting.....(etc)
But the major plus side of this film, is the outstanding performance by Bruce Campell(The man with the Chin), that simply blows all the other performances out of the window.
If you like you horror with a splash of gore a slapstick, and some dodgy lines, check this or any of the Evil Dead films out.
Top drawer entertainment.
