Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A flashy good-natured display of special effects and scare tactics so extreme they can only be taken for laughs.

Good acting would not have served the material well, since it would have diluted the comedy quotient and made the campy elements seem cheap and cheesy.

Evil Dead 2's rampant inventiveness and manic energy have ensured that it will endure as a cult classic.

Evil Dead 2 is, pardon the expression, consistently lively -- a ghoulish splatter comedy that uses wildly excessive gore to provoke the kind of shock that lies between a laugh and a scream.

Just when things start getting too grisly, Raimi rushes in with a hilarious, sendup joke to remind us that all this blood and guts is meant in spooky Grand Guignol fun.
