Five friends go to a cabin in the woods for a vacation. They discover The Book of the Dead and a tape recorder belonging to a professor, who also owns the cabin. One of them plays back what is recorded on the tape-- which just happens to be Candarian resurrection passages translated from the Necronomicon (Book of the Dead) by the professor, which unleashes an evil force from the woods. The people start turning into evil deadites, and the others soon learn from the tape that the only way to kill a person who is turned into a deadite is by total body dismemberment. People are dying left and right; one girl early in the film looses control and runs off into the woods, only to be raped by the trees.
I wouldn't say this one is very comedic IMO, all the sequels if you ask me
To me this is one of the scariest movies ever made, like a nightmare captured on film >.>
I consider it to be a Classic.
Any way you slice it, it is a classic! Seemed to really push the previously set borders on real "gross-out" gore and fast-paced brutality o.O (Unless something else did that before, but not to my knowledge)
i love this movie, my favorite scene is the baby at the park!
