Viewing Notes

Ash Williams and his girlfriend Linda find a log cabin in the woods with a voice recording from an archeologist who had recorded himself reciting ancient chants from “The Book of the Dead.” As they play the recording an evil power is unleashed taking over Linda’s body and leading Ash on a road to hell in the middle of nowhere. The perfect blend of slapstick, dark comedy, horror, and it’s just a blast to watch. I picked this one to watch the commentary track for this year and I’m glad I did. There were some neat behind the scenes stories I didn’t know and I hadn’t seen online and hearing Raimi and Campbell pick on each other is a riot.
