That title says it all, I believe that Sam Rami's Evil Dead @ is the Greatest movie ever made. Sure that's just one podcasts opinion but We have a little help from some family this week to back up our case.
Evil Dead II (1987) is a cult classic horror-comedy film directed by Sam Raimi. It serves as both a sequel to and a reimagining of the original The Evil Dead (1981). The film blends elements of horror, slapstick comedy, and over-the-top gore, creating a unique and highly influential style.
The story follows Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell), who travels to a remote cabin in the woods with his girlfriend, Linda (Denise Bixler). There, they discover the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis (the Book of the Dead) and a tape recording of incantations from the book. When the incantations are played, an evil force is unleashed, possessing Linda and eventually Ash himself. Ash must fight to survive as the demonic forces torment him. Later, the daughter of the cabin's archaeologist owner, Annie (Sarah Berry), arrives with a group of people, and they all become entangled in the battle against the Deadites (the possessed humans). The film culminates in a chaotic and surreal showdown.
