The sequel that "The Evil Dead" needed, and in the end it manages to extend its storyline, without ruining the premise from the first film.

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.

The pop-up humor and smirkiness suggest Raimi's aspiring to the fashionable company of the brothers Coen, though on the basis of this strained effort I'd say he's overshot the mark.

Campbell mugs shamelessly and clearly has a ball as scene outdoes scene in comic thrust and haphazard horror.

Enjoyment is the greatest of lost sensations at scary movies, and Evil Dead II endures as an obstinate token of those simpler times.

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

...lives up to its place as a memorably gruesome (and often very funny) splatfest.

Everything a sequel should be in terms of better but distractingly a reboot that means its predecessor should be wiped away. Two versions of the same thing by the same people is too many.
September 21, 2007
A flashy good-natured display of special effects and scare tactics so extreme they can only be taken for laughs.

The best horror-comedy ever made.

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.
