Movie Reviews

“Here’s a weird word to describe Evil Dead II, but I can think of none more appropriate: It’s delightful.” Josh Modell: AV Club 

“More an absurdist comedy than a horror film, Evil Dead II is a flashy good-natured display of special effects and scare tactics so extreme they can only be taken for laughs.” Variety Staff: Variety 

“Raimi drags us screaming into his cinematic funhouse. Delirious, demented and diabolically funny.” Nigel Floyd: Time Out
