Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is my old time fave movie without doubt
Review: Well I must admit, I saw this when I was well under the age of 18 but I think that was one of the reasons what made it the greatest movie ever for me. The style and atomsphere scared me more than any other movie I had ever seen and every thing in it seemed to fit my idea of the perfect horror film. I watched many horror films when I was young but this is the only one that I still talk about.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A TRUE Tour de Force of Horror Cinema
Review: Sam Raimi's 1979 college project becomes one of the scariest and grossest horror films of all-time as 5 friends search for serenity and solitude at an isolated cabin in the woods but instead find malcontentmaent and macabre. A perfect example of creativity using an extreme low budget and no film since has been able to create the ambient terror that this film did. Was the bloodiest film until Dead Alive but still may be the grossest. Excellent camera work (later aped by other director's in more prominent films). Followed by two sequels which were more on the comedy/horror side but excellent nonetheless. Don't jump on the bandwagon with all of those Scream/I Know What You Did Last Summer fans, and check out the original camp/gore fest.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the feel-bad thriller of the century
Review: I saw "Evil Dead" in high school, in an almost-empty theater, occupied only by the wierdest of wierdos -- the way splatter movies were meant to be seen. Never have I been more terrified at a movie. On video, it's not quite as scary, but it still makes me look away (remember the "pencil-in-the-ankle" effect?) If you're a fan of the genre, you need this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the greatest.
Review: One of the greatest horror movies I have ever seen. Straight to the point of being a horror movie. Not one of those horror/comedy combos, just straight horror. If you want horror/comedy, that's Evil Dead #2. And to think, all this was done for a college class project. I can't say enough good things about it, just go get it, or at least rent it, you owe it to yourself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious
Review: Evil Dead is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen . Yes , it's scary and gory , the camera as the eyes of the demons as it moves about the cabin is fantastic for keeping you on edge , but the dialogue and delivery [especially by Bruce Campbell] is the height of camp . For a night of fun rent the trilogy , invite over some friends , turn out the lights and sling one-liners at the screen . I almost think that is what the Raimis' want you to do . Could this be the next Rocky Horror ?

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good movie but acting left something desired
Review: This movie has a good story to tell and it is a cult classic, but for a movie that was made in '79, I expected the acting to be on par with the storyline.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Filmaking at it's best
Review: I have seen this film several times and have to say it is necessary for all horror fans to see. It is at the top of my movie list and if you've seen it, you'd agree. Anchor Bay Entertainment has done an excellent job restoring this film. It looks and soulds great. Includes the trailer after the film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie to add to the collection of Bruce Campell stuff.
Review: For the collector who has everythin. This is the movie to have. although the Second one is simular there are enough plot twists and gags to make it worthwhile...A must see to believe..

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A True Cult Classic!!!
Review: Evil Dead is one the most stylish, gory, campy, and hilarious horror films of all time. It contains a few of the best low budget gore-fest scenes ever, and it is tremendously entertaining. A must-see for any fan of the genre.
