Evil Dead II: Dead By Dawn (1987)
Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn or simply Evil Dead II is usually described as a remake of 1981’s Evil Dead but it isn’t really. It’s more that The Evil Dead was the draft/proof of concept and this is the finished work. Bruce Campbell plays the same character, some of the same concepts come back, but there's no continuity. Here, we have a horror comedy done right, with plenty of big laughs, “yuck!” moments and scares tying them together.
Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) and his girlfriend, Linda (Denise Bixler) are vacationing in a seemingly abandoned cabin in the woods when they discover a tape of archaeologist Raymond Knowby reading passages from the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis. The incantations unleash an evil force upon the couple, and later, Knowby’s daughter Annie, her research partner Ed Getley (Richard Domeier), and their hired help: Jake (Dan Hicks) and his girlfriend, Bobby Joe (Kassie Wesley).
Evil Dead II is a comfortable middle between the scrappy “anything goes, let’s just do it” filmmaking of the original film and the slick blockbusters Sam Raimi would later direct. From the very first frame, the camerawork tells you this movie is going to be something special. As the evil force chases Ash through the cabin, they take turns smashing through doors, going around corners, and doing anything they can do to fulfill their objective: him? Get away. It? Get close to him. It’s an exhilarating sequence that’s at once panic-inducing and hilarious. It perfectly summarizes what this movie will be like. Yeah, the film might still be a little rough around the edges - there’s a stop-motion monster later on that isn’t all that convincing - but the ideas are there. It takes about 3 minutes for Evil Dead II to unleash its sinister force upon the protagonist and once that’s started, it never lets up. Once the credits roll, you won’t believe everything was packed within only 84 minutes. This film dares to tell us the things we might’ve thought of but would’ve never mustered up the courage to ask, like: what do undead eyeballs taste like?
With scenes that involve Ash fighting with his own demonically possessed hand and heads that can be lobbed off as easily as apples on a shelf, it’s easy to remember the big laughs. The beauty of Evil Dead II is that it also has genuine scares. For example, The scene where Ash realizes the entire cabin around him is evil. The lights, the doors, the walls, the pictures and baubles hanging on the hooks, the very air itself. He's sprayed with gore like it’s coming from a high-pressure hose and then it disappears like nothing happened. It evokes a particular kind of Hell, a place whose tortures have no limits and where time has no meaning. The film previously established that Ash only needs to last until sunrise. After the lamp starts cackling at his futile efforts to fend off the dark forces, that might as well be a million years away. What else can he (and you) do but laugh too? This whole thing is some kind of cosmic joke at his expense.
Evil Dead II is a riot. It’s full of memorable lines, sights and moments. For so many reasons, this movie shouldn’t work but it does. It does so well that it makes this sort of thing look easy. You might be left wondering what it is you just watched but there’s no way you'll forget the experience. (On Blu-ray, June 2, 2022)

'Evil Dead 2' – Horror as slapstick satire on Max
Sam Raimi turns the irreverence up to 11 for Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn (1987), at once a sequel and a remake of his own indie hit The Evil Dead (1981) as an over-the-top horror burlesque.
Lantern jawed Bruce Campbell (the only returning cast member) stars as Ash, who heads out to a cabin in the woods for a romantic weekend with Linda (Denise Bixler). Their first mistake: mucking with the…

Evil Dead II (1987)
This is funny because it starts out with a recap of the previous film, like most 80s horror movies do, but instead of showing flashes of the first film, they actually just filmed a new sequence. It removes 3 actors and replaces the fourth. It’s a parody sequel, so it’s a sequel that is making fun of the first movie. It picks up where the previous film left off, in a way, and brings in the previous cabins inhabitants daughter. There’s more demon fighting, and it’s got all the lines people remember. But it’s still just not very good.
Rating: D. I’m still not impressed.

Season Overview
Return to that iconic cabin in the woods, then travel decades beyond it, with this Evil Dead Groovy Collection. Wisecracking ladies’ man Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) is reborn as a slayer of Deadites in The Evil Dead after a vacation in the country is ruined by the reading of an ancient demon-summoning text. In Evil Dead II, a chainsaw-armed Ash is pushed to the brink of madness by unhinged evil yet again, while Ash vs Evil Dead follows an older, grayer Ash over three wild seasons as he reckons with his bloody past in the face of a Deadite plague.
Pre-order The Evil Dead Groovy Collection.
