Evil Dead is such a good time. This movie is a prime example that a movie doesn't need a big budget to be a good film.
The original that started it all! It's campy as all get out, but there's still some incredibly disturbing scenes.
Peak golden age horror film. Fell in love with it. The makeup, the gore the spooky ness it’s just too much to handle. It’s just so special
Sam Raimi masterpiece. The budget was like $50, a 3 pencils and a stick of glue but Raimi uses a lot of innovation to still keep it creepy.
The second one is basically the same thing but much better. And I’m not a fan of the tree scene. But overall still a good time.
Just watched it in open matte 35mm scan, and I finally get it now! It’s about a joyful experience of making movies that fkng rock
This might be one of my new favorite horror movies of all time.
This is only the first and yet Bruce already establishes himself as one of our greatest physical actors.
A horror classic. Practical effects and a messed up story make this a horror story with staying power. A strangely understated beginning.
It’s a brutal, gory horror movie, but it remembered to have fun along the way. A great use of a nonexistent budget and practical effects.
