Bolting vertiginous camerawork to the most basic of plots (man in shed fights off demons), director Sam Raimi's witty, gore-splattered debut is still immense fun.
DVD Extras:
Commentary by Sam Raimi and producer Robert Tapert, commentary by actor Bruce Campbell, Fanalysis featurette, Discovering Evil Dead featurette, behind-the-scenes footage, outtakes, trailer, TV spots, stills gallery, talent biographies.Packaged in a jacket resembling the movie's grisly Book Of The Dead, this release is even better than last year's. The exhaustive commentaries and Discovering Evil Dead are still in place, but this time you also have Fanalysis, a 26-minute doc that affectionately looks at what drives diehard devotees. What more do you want? Blood?
