Some may wonder why I skipped Evil Dead and went right for Evil Dead 2..... have to admit that Evil Dead wasn't the best film. Evil Dead 2 isn't really a sequel but more of a remake of the first film and a much better movie by far. One of Sam Raimi's cult classics.... the story involves Ash (Bruce Campbell) venturing into the woods to stay at a secluded cabin with his girlfriend. While there he finds a tape recorder owned by a professor which includes recorded recitations of passages from the Book of the Dead. These recitations conjure up an evil force which takes over Linda, Ash's girlfriend. The evil spirit then uses the forest, cabin and other means to torture Ash. This movie is absolutely a comedy and is campy horror at it's best. I literally cried from laughing while watching this film. This was one of the first steps in making Sam Raimi what he is today...... a powerhouse in hollywood.
