ELABORATED, BUT DUMBER

Although disconnected from the first one when it comes to scripts, „Evil Dead II” will bring us more action, more money for the production and further advance of Sam Raimi's directing skills.

The story will be even more dumber than in the first one, but Bruce Campbell will carry the entire flick with ease of a freshly crowned trash star. Humor and irony will also step in, distancing the flick from its predecessor in the sense of seriousness.

„Evil Dead II” will be honored by the genre lovers, but not many more.

DIRECTING FOUNDATIONS

Sam Raimi's franchise about the dead coming back to life went almost side by side with Romero's „Living dead” story and the parallels are unavoidable. „The Evil dead” will tackle the same situation horror layout, with young people being trapped inside the lonesome cabin in the woods, but with some weaker plots and action sequences.

However, Raimi will compensate the hollow script with his directing talent and trademark fast moving camera to create the tension and horror. As for the Romero, effects are really outdated, but also more gorish. Also, a whole new B-production star will be born with Bruce Campbell taking the male lead.

„The Evil dead” is one the flicks that made zombie trash horror genre.
