Zach Wrote:well this only on my thoughts the special effects are as laughable as they were in the rest of the series, but there's something to be said for a film that takes its chances and goes to the extreme in lieu of lacking resources. People complain about this a lot, but I have to say to them "get a sense of humor." The whole point of the "Evil Dead" series was to mock horror films and show how campy they were and that they could get even worse. It's humor is in that the film tries to take itself seriously, but the lack of a big budget makes this not only impossible, but even funny in spite of the fact that it could conceivable be a serious film. From disgusting horror, shock horror, spookie horror, and even a bit of humor. The only slight down side may be that it was made very low budget. This is covered over by the greatest actor of all time Bruce Campbell. He is a great actor in all movies and this is his start. It is also the start of Sam Raimi's directing career. But I disagree that here is great directing,and great acting,.. Yes there is a great fun, inventive camera angles, and even a little bit of nudity if you like that sort of thing.I'm sorry but I don't agree at all (Save for the part about the direction, but only early on, that's probably the films greatest weakness); I don't see horror films as camp, certainly not approaching the early 80s (Did they actually say Evil Dead was meant to be that? Honestly even if they did I'd still see it as damn scary), and I most definitely don't comdemn a film for attempting to work with a low-budget. hell, it's how I plan to work myself.
âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ
