“The Evil Dead” has become one of the most popular cult horror movies ever made.

Shot over the course of several years, “The Evil Dead” is a shining example of low budget filmmaking at its finest. The story centres on five young adults renting an isolated cabin for a weekend of partying. After arriving they discover an old book and an audio tape. They play the tape, only to discover that it was made by the cabin’s prior occupant – a scientist working on a translation of the ‘Necromonicon’ aka ‘The Book Of The Dead’. When the translations are played aloud, they awake an ancient and unspeakable evil that lives in the woods – an evil force intent on possessing the living.

What really makes the film is Raimi’s inspired direction. The film is buoyed by his highly stylized camera movements, odd and intriguing shot selection, and the manic, over-the-top glee that he takes in showcasing the film’s onscreen carnage. Raimi achieves maximum effect from everything at his disposal – the isolated and small cabin location, his actors and the hilariously gruesome gore special effects.

“The Evil Dead” was the first in a trilogy of films: Evil Dead 2 – Dead By Dawn and Evil Dead 3: Army Of Darkness. “The Evil Dead” is generally regarded as the best of the three films and has become a classic horror film that spawned a whole new generation of horror
films.
