Editorial Comments

Description:
Ash (Bruce Campbell), the sole survivor of The Evil Dead, continues his struggle with the forces of the dead. With his girlfriend possessed by demons and his body parts runnning amok, Ash is forced to single-handedly battle the legions of the damned as the most lethal -- and groovy -- hero in horror movie history!

Welcome to Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn, director Sam Raimi's infamous sequel to The Evil Dead and outrageous prequel to Army of Darkness! This unhinged horror classic is now fully remastered in state-of-the-art Dolby Digital 5.1 supervised by THX and packed with extras. So, sit back, strap in and rev up the chainsaw: Evil Dead II has returned...like you've never seen or heard it before!

Amazon.com:
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

Average Rating:4.50 out of 5.00 stars

2 out of 5 starsIncredible movie - terrible looking transfer
title says it all, the movie is a classic, but the source material (film, very old, very cheap, film) shows all of its flaws. Grainy, dark (or badly contrasted), and frustrating to watch. I'd rather watch my VHS copy than this one again. I love the movie, but this one BADLY NEEDED CLEANING before it was put on blu-ray



4 out of 5 starsHAIL TO THE KING,BABY!
One of the most hilarious horror films I have ever seen! Full of fun & even has some scary moments here & there. All around, I'd have to say this movie was pretty good & it holds up well to the blu-ray format,although its a little grainy in spots. If your looking for a not-to-serious horror then this is it.



3 out of 5 starsevil dead 2 bluray
I thought the picture quality was really good, I give it 3 of 5 stars... the colors are good, the picture quality is very good but noisy, more than I expected, the sound 3 of 5 stars too... but I think this version is the best option you have, so far...



5 out of 5 starsA rockin' sequel that kicks high on Blu-Ray!

Five years since Ash (Bruce Campbell) battled the demonic forces of evil in the woods of Tenessee, he has forgotten about that horrible night. Now he sets off on a vacation with a girl named Linda to a secluded cabin in the woods, over there he discovers an old book of the dead similar to the one he encountered before. He even discovers an old dagger and a tape reel that translates the bizarre language of the book as he foolishly unleashes the dead by accident. Evil spirits began to torment him including possessing people around him as he fights evil creatures, zombies and even his own hand that gets possessed.

An ingenious sequel/semi-remake to the 1981 cult masterpiece of terror from writer-director-producer Sam Raimi. It's one of those rare sequels that could actually surpass the original using a dose of dark humor and over-the-top gore more then the original. While some may say this is a remake of the first one then a sequel, i'd say it works well as a semi-sequel and semi-remake combined. It's a true classic of the 80's with the brilliant make-up effects by KNB with amazing camera trickery and memorable quotes that turned this movie into one of the most unique cult movies of all time.

This Blu-Ray offers high quality high definition with superb sound into two qualities with some nice extras like audio commentary, featurettes, still gallery, pop-up triva track and trailer.



5 out of 5 starsFantastic
One of the greatest movies of all time just got better on Blu-ray. The quality is great. It has tons of features and extras that will keep you hooked for a month or so. I highly recommend this product.
