EVIL DEAD II

Graveyard Shift counts down to the upcoming remake of THE EVIL DEAD with weekly screenings of the EVIL DEAD trilogy.

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Sam Raimi must be the happiest man on earth.

Not content with creating one of the most ferocious and ground-breaking lo-fi horror movies ever, Raimi one-upped himself by reimagining the original EVIL DEAD as a parody. And also a sequel.

Most civilians would fail to see the point in such an undertaking. Thankfully, we're not most civilians. The gonzo, ultra-creative EVIL DEAD II reunites the iconic Ash (Bruce Campbell) with a possessed cabin in the woods. But this time, Raimi and co-writer Scott Spiegel weren't happy with simply fashioning chainsaws as hands, decapitating demons, and filling up rooms with blood.

They wanted more! And so, the spirit of the original EVIL DEAD was combined with The Three Stooges to create the definitive horror-comedy of 1987 and also all years forever after infinity. (Joseph A. Ziemba)
