JayPea,
BRILLIANT!!!
Your post is pure brilliance.
One of the best I'ver EVER read on these DVDFile boards. I agree wholeheartedly with out about The Evil Dead, and am continually baffled by it's being overlooked in favour of its sequels (which I guess makes it more cult, and more of a secret pleasure for us.. even though this upcoming DVD is giving it more exposure than ever!) for similar reasons you brought up.
So yes, everything you've said is perfectly stated, and I (we?) appreciate the effort put into your thoughts.
Word.
Everybody should read JayPea's post. Don't be overwhelmed by it's length.
The Evil Dead is indeed the most paranoid, creepy, campy, entertaining, exciting, over-the-top, and most of all gory films available! A perfect film, IMO.
Miggy and Sam,
I hope you guys are just reinforcing some general opinions, because JayPea said the exact same things in his thread to an extent (but maybe you took the option to not read the post, as he offered?
)
