"The story of a
hideous monster who takes the form of a beautiful,
seductive woman who in a torrent of unbelievable special
effects, beauty and monster transform into a climax of
pure evil. For years this monster woman has cursed a
small village, and to this day her deadly grasp holds the
peaceful residents in fear. This ferocious, feminine fury
posses a shocking sensual appetite and she can only
satiate her lust when passion consumes her, by striking
where a man is most vulnerable... and the results are
deadly."
Hmmm. Striking a man in his wallet
eh? As always with Troma films, this is good. Nice
eyeball scene.
"Whilst
holidaying in the Tenessee woodlands, five innocent
teenagers unwittingly unleash the spirit of the evil
dead. One by one the teenagers fall victim to the
frenzied, flesh eating monsters, amidst a tour-de-force
display of stunning special effects."
First Sam Raimi film I ever saw.
And possibly his best.(?) Stephen King was quoted saying
"A black rainbow of horror" about this film.
Well he should know. Superb

"There's
only one movie scarier than Evil Dead...
Evil Dead II. Kiss your nerves goodbye!"
This is very similar in storyline
to The Evil Dead with a touch of homour added. Great
performance by Bruce Campbell.
