Writer-director Sam Raimi's extremely stylized, blood-soaked follow-up to his creepy Evil Dead isn't really a sequel; rather, it's a remake on a better budget. It also isn't really a horror film (though there are plenty of decapitations, zombies, supernatural demons, and gore) as much as it is a hilarious, sophisticated slapstick send-up of the terror genre. Raimi takes every horror convention that exists and exaggerates it with mind-blowing special effects, crossed with mocking Three Stooges humor. The plot alone is a genre cliché right out of any number of horror films. Several teens (including our hero, Ash, played by Bruce Campbell in a manic tour-de-force of physical comedy) visit a broken-down cottage in the woods--miles from civilization--find a copy of the Book of the Dead, and unleash supernatural powers that gut every character in sight. All, that is, except Ash, who takes this very personally and spends much of the of the film getting his head smashed while battling the unseen forces. Raimi uses this bare-bones story as a stage to showcase dazzling special effects and eye-popping visuals, including some of the most spectacular point-of-view Steadicam work ever (done by Peter Deming). Although it went unnoticed in the theaters, the film has since become an influential cult-video favorite, paving the way for over-the-top comic gross-out films like Peter Jackson's Dead Alive. --Dave McCoy

 Even Better Then The First February 1, 2010
Toby L. Weaklend (USA)
Most of the time I like the first movie more than the follow up. But I think that this movie is even better than the first.
Made in 87' Ash goes back to the same cabin he was at in the first one. His girlfriend is taken away by the evil things that are in the woods. She comes back from the dead and tries to kill him. The trees come to life, His hand goes crazy and tries to kill him, There is a zombie down in the basement. There is a bunch of other scary cool things that happpen in this movie as well. If you liked the first one I really think that you will like this one.
There is more humor in this one than in the first one. Which I thought was cool. Pick it up at amazon.

Don't buy this one!
One of the worst horror movies I've ever seen.
Don't waste your money on this!
Better buy these horror movies:
"Resident Evil", "Feast (unrated)", "Severance", "Return of the living dead V - Rave to the grave (unrated) (available in Canada)", "Black X-Mas (unrated) (the new version)", "Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning (unrated)", "Wrong Turn", "Wrong Turn 2 (unrated)", "Wrong Turn 3 (unrated)", "28 weeks later", "Planet Terror", "Hostel (unrated)", Hostel 2 (unrated)", "Saw IV (unrated)", "The Hills Have Eyes (Unrated)", "Hatchet (unrated)", "Halloween (the Rob Zombie version, not the boring old version)", "The Descent (Original Unrated Cut)", "See no evil", "Dawn of the dead (unrated)", "Land of the dead (unrated)"
or vampire horror movies
like the Blade Trilogy or Underworld Trilogy
or Sci-Fi horror movies
like the Alien Quadrilogy or Doom (unrated)
Kind regards,
Mark

 Great movie,lousy packaging January 10, 2010

I purchased this movie, one of my all time favorites, in great anticipation of adding it to my blu Ray collection. Pretty disappointed that when I received it, the packaging looked all shriveled up and worn, as if it had sat outside overnight in a rainstorm and then someone tried to salvage it with a blow drier. Kind of lousy that anyone would even try to pass this item off to someone as a "new" purchase. Extremely disappointed.
Most fun movie ever made January 4, 2010
John Harding (Dallas, TX)
What can i say about this movie that hasn't already been said a thousand times over? An absolute classic, regardless of which genre you place it in. The blu-ray picture quality is only a slight improvement over the standard DVD version, but if you don't own it already you might as well go with the blu-ray version. this is a MUST OWN movie!
Evil Dead II-Still Gore-iffic. November 1, 2009

Evil Dead 2 is a movie(like the first) I don't appreciate, Is pointless and no plot, just gore and of course Young dumb people staying in the woods, Why would you stay in a creepy cabin? Mama didn't raise no fool, But that's horror movies, people doing dumb stuff. Although Bruce Campbell is a legend.don't watch if your queasy.
