The Evil Dead (1981) 4 Word Review

Zombie Horror Classic

Eric Jackson
The Evil Dead(1981) is the horror splatter flick that started the careers of lifetime friends actor Bruce Campbell and Director Sam Raimi. Friends try to enjoy a fun weekend in a cabin in the woods and unknowingly unleash flesh hungry demons. As Joe Bob Riggs would say, "Spam in a cabin." I would suggest using The Evil Dead Drinking Game.

Words: Blood, Woods, Dismemberment, Voices

**************SPOILER ALERT! Can you dig?*********************

-Blood: Gallons of blood splatter out of everything. It's great.
-Woods: Even the woods are trying to kill you and that's not even the worse thing they can do. Just ask Cheryl.
-Dismemberment: In every horror movie with a physical threat I demand that the victims(cast) try dismembering the threat. If you cut of Jason's arms and legs he probably can't chase you. Start with this and then come up with new plans. In The Evil Dead it's all they got. I cheered this first time I saw this.
-Voices: Do not listen to the voices. Do the voices in your head talk a lot about souls and blood? The correct answer is no. If anything do the opposite of what the voices are telling you.

Awesomeness Rating: 10/10 For always scaring me. I've seen it hundreds of times and it still creeps me out.
