In this sequel to the Evil Dead films, a discount-store employee ("Name's Ash. Housewares.") is time-warped to a medieval castle beset by monstrous forces. Initially mistaken for an enemy, he is soon revealed as the prophecised savior who can quest for the Necronomicon, a book which can dispel the evil. Unfortunately, he screws up the magic words while collecting the tome, and releases an army of skeletons, led by his own Deadite counterpart. What follows is a thrilling, yet tongue-in-cheek battle between Ash's 20th Century tactics and the minions of darkness.
Less gory than campy, this film brilliantly skewers all manner of archetypal monsters from Western Europe's mental closet using solid special effects, including witches, skeletons, and sorcerers. The hero undergoes bizarre physical and psychic transformations, suggesting a complete mythological journey.
If you can't get enough see prequels and sequels with title "...Evil Dead."
