Were you were trying to say about ghosts and they’re like zombies but I don’t think not likely they’re considered as deadites a species of undead parasitic demonic spirits which feed on the souls of living creatures and possess their bodies.
Y'all are going to love these movies, especially the original trilogy. Bruce Campbell nailed it as Ash Williams, one of the best characters in anything. Hail to the King, baby!
@@Random-ed2xf I think that was a good ending, specially inspired by Army of Darkness's original ending. Ash living forever in a Mad Max future fighting Deadites with a babe by his side would be his dream ending.
Bruce Campbell was given the job of putting all of the content lenses in the actors eyes, because he was deemed to be the most responsible person on set. If you know Bruce, this is extremely funny
Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert, Ted Raimi, out of all the people in that team, would you trust any of them to put something in your eye? Sam POKE HIM WITH A STICK Raimi? Joxer?
There's no use trying to analyze the "rules" in this movie. This came out in 81. It doesn't have 40+ yrs of movie tropes and clichés to taint the experience. We just went along for the ride when this came out
Exactly. Young people these days over-think stuff and try to think about the logic. Back in the day, we saw the movie for what it was. And they kept thinking they're zombies. They're NOT ZOMBIES. They're possessed by demons. All these millennials and Gen-Zs...sigh!
Well said.. Reactors doesn't know how to enjoy the old movies that came out in 80's & 90's they just analyze and finding logics behind the scenes shot during those days.
Ash Williams went from a "Final Girl" to becoming the action survivor with a boom stick. His character development is gonna be groovy. Hail to the king, baby!
11:20 it’s so funny that in nearly every single reaction I’ve seen to this movie people talk about if it’s zombies or ghosts but when they’re playing the tape, it basically says when you recite the passages it conjures DEMONS 😅😂
I've noticed that if demonic possession takes place in movies when it can spread, even when it is explicitly explained, almost all reactors tend to think it is zombies. Shrug.
Can't speak for other reactors (who tend by the nature of reacting to not be very informed), but while the "demon" category is standard basics for horror fans, these two are noobs who are only vaguely aware of the regular tropes.
@@Melancthon7332 yeah but I believe in this video right after the voice on the tape says demon, like not even 2 seconds after they said ghost or zombies.
It's in the Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness too. I think it's just a car in the street or something. Bruce also makes an appearance in either MoM or Spiderman no way home (I can't remember which)
Technically speaking, it was his Mom's car. It was even disguised as a wagon so that it could appear in "The Quick And The Dead," Rami's western. It's his calling card.
@jkvelasquez84 It's debatable which is the last film to feature the original car. Probably "The Gift." The horrible POS that Cate Blanchette drives is the real deal. For some reason Sam has never had it restored, although he has used many stand-ins both practical and CGI, to include the Oldsmobile in every one of his films.
"A lot and gross" is kind of the perfect way to describe Evil Dead as a whole and I absolutely love it for that. Thankfully for you two this series won't be this scary again for a good few movies xD
Ehh...it was Evil Dead II that really made him a legend. Ash is really struggling in this one. It wasn't until the sequel that he became the bad ass everyone knows him to be.
I hope they quickly realize that it's intended to be a streamlined summary of the first movie (sans three of the characters), but I do find something wonderfully absurd about the idea that Ash would go off, find another girlfriend of the same name, take her to the same cabin, and go through all that mess again. I don't know if I'd put it past him.
@@jkvelasquez84The beginning of ED II is not considered canon. It was just a way to quickly recap the first movie for people who forgot or didn’t see it, since a few years had passed between films, and a different studio owned the rights to the first one, so they couldn’t reuse footage. Bruce Campbell has said just skip the recap and start at the point where the first left off.
@@Kevmaster2000 From what I've heard its semi-canon. The issue was since Evil Dead was self financed to get a worldwide distribution Shapiro sold the rights to a lot of different studios for that region. Then when they wanted to make 2 in order to use 1 they'd have to get permission (and possibly negotiate a deal) from all those studios. To get around that they did the recap and slight restructuring of the events of part 1 as the set up of 2. So while ED is the events, ED 2's opening is semi-canon as its what get used for later products since the rights are more easily managed.
Sam Raimi and Wes Craven would put elements from each other's movies in their movies. On here, you see a Hills Have Eyes poster. On A Nightmare on Elm Street, Nancy is watching Evil Dead to stay awake. In Evil Dead 2, look out for a Freddy glove in the background. There may have been more, but these are the ones I know.
@@MrBoyYankee Cunningham has nothing to do with that; _Jason Goes To Hell_ was directed by a horror uber-fanboy who peppered the movie with references and Easter eggs.
@@christopherwall2121 which was friends with Cunningham's son. Noel Cunningham & Adam has been close friends since they were 9 years old. So make that make sense for it not to have anything to do with Sean S. Cunningham.
@@Kevmaster2000 Your opinion. The second one is a comedy the reboot is not as scary. How can the girl possessed have her tongue healed and she is back in control. The original ZERO CGI all practical.
Learned from the several commentaries for this film that it was filmed over many years, from the end of the 1970s into the 80s. Bruce Campbell talks about gaining muscle and looking different from scene to scene and how the first time he goes into the basement it's 1979 but when he's in the basement it's 1981. Fun stuff! Thanks for the fantastic entertainment. Looking forward to the rest of the films.
My jaw dropped when I saw this… the original Evil Dead is most definitely the most intense horror movie I’ve ever seen, and I don’t even find the Exorcist scary; a bit gross, but not scary. This one is both super gross and super scary, and SO good; one of the best horror movies ever made period
The shejects embark on the real cabin in the woods saga. Also the introduction of the prototypical anti-hero. The ballad of Ashley J Williams. Hail to the king. 🤴
Welcome to my favorite franchise of all time. I even have army of darkness tattoo on my back. Bruce Campbell is my childhood favorite. My dad and me watched his movies and shows my entire childhood
My older sisters rented this movie and we watched it during dinner and my dad turned the VCR off during the ankle stabbing scene . It was so nasty I remember 😮...Evil Dead is without a doubt the scariest and grossest film of the 80s . It's the Exorcist ×10 . Sam Raimi is 2nd to none with this ultimate classic. The branch scenes were reversed shots...."Oh my holy tamale" 👍 🎬 😎🤟
Would love to see you do all five movies and the TV show. Evil Dead has a much larger fan base than Chucky, so the viewers are more likely to turn out.
LFG! This franchise doesn't have a bad movie (in my opinion). I hope you do the show as well since Chucky is done. Also excellent. And, just to give a heads up, Evil Dead 2 is kind of a pseudo remake/sequel of the first. If you're not prepped that they're going to rehash a lot of the original film, you might spend too much of it trying to wrap your head around why it's that way. Just enjoy it as it is.
The thing I love about these 2 is once they start a franchise they finish it to the end I hate when a channel watches one movie and that’s it if you start a franchise finish it. Thank you for the entertainment
Loved the reaction. I want to warn you you that comedy is integral to the rest of the original series. When you get to the 2016 Fede Alverez remake, prepare to shit yourself LMAO. "Swallow your soul".
10:57 I just had a thought -- would the incantations have had any effect if the book hadn't been opened first to begin with? Also, if a ghost inhabits a living body, according to many experts in supernatural theory, it's not called a zombie, it's called possession. A zombie initially was part of Voodoo tradition from the region once known as Haiti.
10:29 "It has been a number of years since I began excavating the ruins of Kandar..." Now how many heard that and thought _"Kandahar Province, Afghanistan"?_
I played this at my 8th grade slumber party in the 80’s. Just remember, the special effects are all milk, oatmeal, and corn syrup. This is my fave of all the Evil Dead movies. 😂
If you ladies thought this was gory just wait til the 2013 film and Rise. What makes this whole franchise great is it always utilises great practical special effects.
OH MY GOD YES THIS MOVIE RIGHT HERE holds up sooooo well This was MY childhood horror movie. I friggin LOVE the evil dead series!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Been waiting on this franchise! Great reaction, guys. It's an intense movie. BTW, the professor's recording distinctly said "Demons". They aren't ghosts. Keep in mind that this was a shoestring budget film, made by a bunch of college students. The real star is Sam Raimi, who really made a statement with his distinct camera style that became so influential. Evil Dead 2 is such a blast. I hope you keep in mind, that it is intended to be a comedy, where as this one was more of a horror.
“But what about the people waving?” They were just cameos, I’ve noticed you guys attach way more significance to the most minor things and seem to think they’re gonna play some huge important role later
I love how you talked about how scary this is. This is arguably one of the movies that changed horror forever. They literally don't make them like this anymore. I don't want to spoil parts 2 and 3, but I am very interested to see how you react to them. Looking forward to it!
Luckily the second and third movies aren't 'horror' movies...they are cross-genre and more comedy than anything else. The newest movie, Evil Dead Rise however...if you found this first movie scary, (which was at the time it came out but really is more a cheesy cult classic than horror now)...that could be rough for you, because it is 100x more intense than this movie.
Sam Raimi did it amazing with this trilogy (Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness). Great reaction girls!! I cannot wait to join you in the second one!
When they were doing their breathing exercise after the movie, that would have been a phenomenal time for Tara to finally get her revenge and purge Roxy cause I really think it woulda worked there, lol
So glad you guys chose to react to this franchise. This one is my favorite of the original three movies with Bruce Campbell, and my second favorite of the entire franchise
Thank you Shejects for reacting to Evil Dead, it’s my favorite horror franchise, and thank you for keeping me entertained and sane atm. My house has been destroyed by Hurricane Helene, and this will be a nice distraction from all the chaos ❤️
Christ I hadn't even considered the possibility these two would be covering these movies. One of my favourite horror franchises and so ripe for some good reactions. Always love to support Roxy and I've grown to appreciate Tara through these videos (that's not a backhanded compliment, I just didn't know you before).
Not sure how far into the series you are, but (no spoilers) the continuity from film to film is fairly loose. One of the reasons is that each movie was made through a different company, they didn't have access to clips from previous entries for flashbacks, so they wound up recreating scenes instead and took the opportunity to change things up if they felt like it.
Fun fact: the movie was originally giving an X rating because of its violence and disturbing content and then got re rated to NC-17 for “substantial graphic horror violence and gore” and the movie is still rated NC-17 to this day! Subsequent home video releases DVD, blu ray etc of the movie have released without a rating. A very intense movie 😂 But the rating is worth it imo! One of the best horror movies of all time!
This is the best reaction I have seen. I am glad you managed to survive it. Evil Dead is certainly another level of intense compared to more usual horror films, that's why it is so well loved. The people who made this film did an unbelievable job and really suffered for their art.
Yooo shejects and or rejects please inform how evil dead 2 isn't a direct sequel and is a requel because at the time unfortunately they didn't have the rights to their own movie new line cinema made this first one but raimi wasn't able to secure the rights so the 2nd movie was made as a re-quel I hope my message is seen don't want the she-jects confused
I saw the thumb-nail and got SUPER excited! I love your reacts, and I love the Evil Dead franchise! The budget was $375,000 which Sam Raimi raised from investors and family members. When Roxy started singing "Scotty Doesn't Know," I laughed out loud, because I always think that whenever I hear the name Scotty. Cheryl, the woman who was attacked by the trees, is Ash's sister. Your reactions were great! It was awesome seeing this movie fresh again through your viewpoint! I can't wait to see you guys do the rest of the series. If you like Bruce Campbell, you should also check out the TV series Adventures of Brisco County, Jr, which he is the main character, and is absolutely amazing.
Oh, you're doing a horror franchise run? I suggest the Phantasm movies, they're like a sister to the Evil Dead franchise, going since 1979 with five entries with mostly the same cast, less patchy than Friday the 13th, and less confusing than Halloween with the branching timelines or Living Dead with all the reboots.
It speaks to Sam’s talent that this is basically a college project as he & all the actors were in school. What he was able to do with bread crumbs of a budget is amazing. The Evil Dead is my favorite 80’s horror franchise. The only demon on the Exorcist level that inflects terror, pain & disgusting on equal levels.
NO WAY!!! One of my favorite horror trilogies/franchises ever! You guys are gonna have so much fun! Evil Dead 2 is the best imo but Army of Darkness (3rd film) is not only my personal fav in the franchise but one of my favorite movies of all time! I even cosplayed as Ash two years ago and I modified and built a prop replica toy of the iconic chainsaw with working chains switches and pull cord! The Shejects are back at it again!!! 🙌🙌🙌
This is by far the best Sheject series for reactions. This was the best reaction ever!Thank you shejects for this reaction! Even though it was hard for you two it was so great to experience as you all were experiencing.
One of my favorite horror, movies! Great reaction! Another UA-camr I follow skiped this one and went right to the second movie and never saw the first one. Glad that didn't happen here!
Ash is my hero! Every movie in the series is perfection. Horror+camp= gold. Ash vs the Evil Dead is an incredible series that Sam Rami and Bruce Campbell reconnected and put out years after the series... You gonna love the ride🎉
I love that you two genuinely thought of this movie as scary where as when it came out people thought it was a little bit corny. I am excited to watch the other movies with y'all. Until the next reel❤️ ✌🏻
Get used to seeing that car....it's in EVERY SINGLE ONE of Sam Raimis movies because....It's his car, its THE biggest star of all of his movies, it still runs, he still drives it. 🤣 It cost something like 370 K after Raimi begged some friends. Iy made it back domestically but crushed it world wide. After that AMAZING success Raimi got a much bigger budget for 2 and then Army of Darkness of course. AoD is so much different than 1 and 2 but you guys are going to have a blast with that one. 2 is more of a remake of 1 than anything just with a bigger budget.

Finally I've been waiting for this
Great n I love that ur going thru this franchise. But my suggestion was gonna be a tamer one... Resident Evil. 🤭
You CANNOT watch the series unless you watch the third film Army of the Dead
Teen Wolf 1985 great October movie and a classic
Evil Dead 2 will come out Thursday next week. Genre schedule is out of whack due to blocks on other vids we wanted to publish lol
Question, what coming this Thursday?
Groovy!
Too bad that UA-cam blocked some of your stuff...hope that gets resolved favourably and with a quickness!
Were you were trying to say about ghosts and they’re like zombies but I don’t think not likely they’re considered as deadites a species of undead parasitic demonic spirits which feed on the souls of living creatures and possess their bodies.
👍👏✌️❤
Y'all are going to love these movies, especially the original trilogy. Bruce Campbell nailed it as Ash Williams, one of the best characters in anything. Hail to the King, baby!
Even the show was fun. The ending bothered me, though .
I absolutely love Evil Dead 2013 and Rise as well.
@@Random-ed2xf I think that was a good ending, specially inspired by Army of Darkness's original ending. Ash living forever in a Mad Max future fighting Deadites with a babe by his side would be his dream ending.
i mean all the evil dead movies are solid great horror
@@pedrosantossinger Spoilers much lol
I like how this movie subverts some of the most common horror tropes of the time, like having a final boy, Ash Williams, instead of a final girl.
Ash was eventually featured in Fortnite, but they did the character dirty by making his name a female name (Ashley Joanne Williams)
Subverts tropes... it also created them... this whole cabin in the woods genre.
I came to point out the "final guy" thing... But you beat me to it..
@@Robert_Douglass Is this sarcastic? Because his actual name is ashley joanna williams, Raimi gave him that name not fortnite lol
@Robert_Douglass that's literally his name 😭
Bruce Campbell was given the job of putting all of the content lenses in the actors eyes, because he was deemed to be the most responsible person on set. If you know Bruce, this is extremely funny
😂😂😂
Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert, Ted Raimi, out of all the people in that team, would you trust any of them to put something in your eye? Sam POKE HIM WITH A STICK Raimi? Joxer?
There's no use trying to analyze the "rules" in this movie. This came out in 81. It doesn't have 40+ yrs of movie tropes and clichés to taint the experience. We just went along for the ride when this came out
Exactly. Young people these days over-think stuff and try to think about the logic. Back in the day, we saw the movie for what it was. And they kept thinking they're zombies. They're NOT ZOMBIES. They're possessed by demons. All these millennials and Gen-Zs...sigh!
Best comment. You nailed it!
Well said.. Reactors doesn't know how to enjoy the old movies that came out in 80's & 90's they just analyze and finding logics behind the scenes shot during those days.
that's because for the 40 years since, people have been trying to replicate the formula and failed, they wrote the tropes with this film
You do know the most well-known horror movies and tropes & cliches started in the '30s, right?
Ash Williams went from a "Final Girl" to becoming the action survivor with a boom stick. His character development is gonna be groovy. Hail to the king, baby!
All hail The Final Kids Club

If you ladies thought this was gory just wait til the 2013 film and Rise.
What makes this whole franchise great is it always utilises great practical special effects.
OH MY GOD YES
THIS MOVIE RIGHT HERE holds up sooooo well
This was MY childhood horror movie. I friggin LOVE the evil dead series!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re going to break our hearts if you start the three season Ash vs The Evil Dead and only do the first season. 😭 I don’t think I could handle that.
Even though there's already an Evil Dead Rise reaction on the channel, I can't wait for Tara and Roxy to check it out.
44:22: Their faces, I can't lmao!!! They're like Rick and Morty freaking out in the car after that crazy battle lololol
Been waiting on this franchise! Great reaction, guys. It's an intense movie. BTW, the professor's recording distinctly said "Demons". They aren't ghosts.
Keep in mind that this was a shoestring budget film, made by a bunch of college students. The real star is Sam Raimi, who really made a statement with his distinct camera style that became so influential.
Evil Dead 2 is such a blast. I hope you keep in mind, that it is intended to be a comedy, where as this one was more of a horror.
“But what about the people waving?” They were just cameos, I’ve noticed you guys attach way more significance to the most minor things and seem to think they’re gonna play some huge important role later
In a way, they were responsible for this whole mess. IFYKYK
@@christopherwall2121 never ever thought about that!
@@RandyReviews1990 😉
I love how you talked about how scary this is. This is arguably one of the movies that changed horror forever. They literally don't make them like this anymore. I don't want to spoil parts 2 and 3, but I am very interested to see how you react to them. Looking forward to it!
Multiple movies and a series. Not ghosts, not zombies...demons!
Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness, Ash vs Evil Dead*.
Great to see the she jects back we missed you Roxy and Tara ❤❤❤. Another brilliant reaction from you both and fair play to ye for sticking with it 👏👏👏
"could it be ghosts telling us there's zombies" ......i literally looked up the right and let out an involuntary, hmmm. lmao
First movie is good but the sequel is even better.
Someone tell Tara that disembody is not the same as dismember. lol
Yay shejects! Keep 'em coming. This is my favorite film of all time and your reaction made it new to me.
Luckily the second and third movies aren't 'horror' movies...they are cross-genre and more comedy than anything else. The newest movie, Evil Dead Rise however...if you found this first movie scary, (which was at the time it came out but really is more a cheesy cult classic than horror now)...that could be rough for you, because it is 100x more intense than this movie.
The movie before dead rise was also horror.
Sam Raimi did it amazing with this trilogy (Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness). Great reaction girls!! I cannot wait to join you in the second one!
When they were doing their breathing exercise after the movie, that would have been a phenomenal time for Tara to finally get her revenge and purge Roxy cause I really think it woulda worked there, lol
So glad you guys chose to react to this franchise. This one is my favorite of the original three movies with Bruce Campbell, and my second favorite of the entire franchise
I AM SO READY FOR THIS REACTION SERIES! Roxy and Tara horror reactions are my fucking favorite.
Thank you Shejects for reacting to Evil Dead, it’s my favorite horror franchise, and thank you for keeping me entertained and sane atm. My house has been destroyed by Hurricane Helene, and this will be a nice distraction from all the chaos ❤️
The fact Britain banned this movie at first is comical
Christ I hadn't even considered the possibility these two would be covering these movies. One of my favourite horror franchises and so ripe for some good reactions.
Always love to support Roxy and I've grown to appreciate Tara through these videos (that's not a backhanded compliment, I just didn't know you before).
Not sure how far into the series you are, but (no spoilers) the continuity from film to film is fairly loose. One of the reasons is that each movie was made through a different company, they didn't have access to clips from previous entries for flashbacks, so they wound up recreating scenes instead and took the opportunity to change things up if they felt like it.
Been waiting for you guys to start this series for weeks. Glad to see the Shejects officially back.
Fun fact: the movie was originally giving an X rating because of its violence and disturbing content and then got re rated to NC-17 for “substantial graphic horror violence and gore” and the movie is still rated NC-17 to this day! Subsequent home video releases DVD, blu ray etc of the movie have released without a rating. A very intense movie 😂 But the rating is worth it imo! One of the best horror movies of all time!
NC-17 didn't exist until 1990.
@@deraykrause4517He said it was later re-rated to NC-17. Which obviously came after that rating was created.
@@Verasoul yep I miss read my bad
This is the best reaction I have seen. I am glad you managed to survive it. Evil Dead is certainly another level of intense compared to more usual horror films, that's why it is so well loved. The people who made this film did an unbelievable job and really suffered for their art.
Anyone else notice how every so often the actors hairstyles change? Lol
Yooo shejects and or rejects please inform how evil dead 2 isn't a direct sequel and is a requel because at the time unfortunately they didn't have the rights to their own movie new line cinema made this first one but raimi wasn't able to secure the rights so the 2nd movie was made as a re-quel I hope my message is seen don't want the she-jects confused
It’s not zombies it’s demonic possession 😂 it gets confused a lot lol
Or Deadites
The first movie didn’t have any rules so it made sense to get confused, deadites are still confusing anyway lol
I saw the thumb-nail and got SUPER excited! I love your reacts, and I love the Evil Dead franchise! The budget was $375,000 which Sam Raimi raised from investors and family members. When Roxy started singing "Scotty Doesn't Know," I laughed out loud, because I always think that whenever I hear the name Scotty. Cheryl, the woman who was attacked by the trees, is Ash's sister. Your reactions were great! It was awesome seeing this movie fresh again through your viewpoint! I can't wait to see you guys do the rest of the series. If you like Bruce Campbell, you should also check out the TV series Adventures of Brisco County, Jr, which he is the main character, and is absolutely amazing.
Your guys were in the kiddy pool of horror and now welcome to the deep end of the pool
I don't know if anyone has said this but this is the movie that Nancy is watching on nightmare on elm Street
It's also the movie Donnie and his gf watch in Donnie Darko (at the theatre)
OMG, I'm so happy you reacted to these movies. Grew up watching them.😍 Used to rewatch them countless times.
Finally watched Evil Dead 💀🔥🔥
Oh, you're doing a horror franchise run? I suggest the Phantasm movies, they're like a sister to the Evil Dead franchise, going since 1979 with five entries with mostly the same cast, less patchy than Friday the 13th, and less confusing than Halloween with the branching timelines or Living Dead with all the reboots.
My pray has been answered by Sheject Evil Dead gets some spotlight
It speaks to Sam’s talent that this is basically a college project as he & all the actors were in school. What he was able to do with bread crumbs of a budget is amazing.
The Evil Dead is my favorite 80’s horror franchise. The only demon on the Exorcist level that inflects terror, pain & disgusting on equal levels.
The third movie is going to blow your MINDS
NO WAY!!! One of my favorite horror trilogies/franchises ever! You guys are gonna have so much fun! Evil Dead 2 is the best imo but Army of Darkness (3rd film) is not only my personal fav in the franchise but one of my favorite movies of all time!
I even cosplayed as Ash two years ago and I modified and built a prop replica toy of the iconic chainsaw with working chains switches and pull cord!
The Shejects are back at it again!!! 🙌🙌🙌
My dad went to High School with Sam Rami and Bruce Campbell!!!
This is by far the best Sheject series for reactions. This was the best reaction ever!Thank you shejects for this reaction! Even though it was hard for you two it was so great to experience as you all were experiencing.
It's demonic possession ladies not zombies or ghosts lol
Whatever its still supernatural undead
Tara and Roxy are me about two years ago I got bit by that spooky bug and now I see any movie cuz am not scared anymore
One of my favorite horror, movies! Great reaction! Another UA-camr I follow skiped this one and went right to the second movie and never saw the first one. Glad that didn't happen here!
But one thing I miss is when people had their own teeth and when scenes were set in night time but we could actually SEE.
Ash is my hero! Every movie in the series is perfection. Horror+camp= gold. Ash vs the Evil Dead is an incredible series that Sam Rami and Bruce Campbell reconnected and put out years after the series... You gonna love the ride🎉
This was Sam raimi coming out party. This movie is a passion project and a instant classic horror film 🎃💯
I love that you two genuinely thought of this movie as scary where as when it came out people thought it was a little bit corny. I am excited to watch the other movies with y'all. Until the next reel❤️ ✌🏻
Woot! All we need now is Evil Dead 2 then Army of Darkness!
Love the trivia ladies.
Ill move onto the next one
😅😂(1:41)"Uncut Jews"😅😂OMG!!😅
Roxy and Tara haven’t watched Evil Dead… Wowzers here we go!
Yes!!!! Roxy!! Tara!!! EVIL DEAD!!!!!! How can it get it any better!?!?!?!
Yesss❤❤❤ some of my favorites!
Y’all are going to get a kick out of these!
FYI they arent zombies. The book summons demons. EDII is better than this also.
Bruce Campbell is a movie icon. Also Sam Raimi directing genius.
Get used to seeing that car....it's in EVERY SINGLE ONE of Sam Raimis movies because....It's his car, its THE biggest star of all of his movies, it still runs, he still drives it. 🤣 It cost something like 370 K after Raimi begged some friends. Iy made it back domestically but crushed it world wide. After that AMAZING success Raimi got a much bigger budget for 2 and then Army of Darkness of course. AoD is so much different than 1 and 2 but you guys are going to have a blast with that one. 2 is more of a remake of 1 than anything just with a bigger budget.
