Evil Dead II (1987)
We are what was, and shall rule again
Dead by dawn, chanting death thee ancient hymn
This is not real, I am not the chosen one
Trapped in a spell of the Necronomicon
Dead by dawn, dead by dawn, dead by dawn
Dead, By, Yawn
I'm afraid i don't have the same love for Evil Dead II as i have for The Evil Dead and follow up Army of Darkness. Although the effects are great the whole thing is just far too slapstick silly. It doesn't work (for me) as a horror film nor a comedy.
It is a film i've seen numerous times so it does draw me back every so often but i always leave with the same slightly disappointed feeling.
