How coincidental of this thread to have started, because today in one of my classes(for school obviously) one of the kids had said how AOD of the worst movie he had ever seen. Upon hearing this my teacher said "Hey! there will be NO talking trash about the Evil Dead movies in this classroom!". I felt revived after that.

I love Bruce Campbell, and of course Sam Raimi.

To quote my boys in Korea..."THAT'S RIGHT BITCH!"

There WILL be no trashtalking about Evil Dead...At least, there shouldn't!

Oh my god, I forgot about that car! My Grandma had that exact same one! Yellow 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 with white vinyl top, brown vinyl interior, named Yellow Bird. She used to take me to the local swimming pool in it and after I was finished swimming I'd almost get 2nd degree burns when I sat down on those seats. All that glass plus an hour under the noon Phoenix sun = friggin' HOT!

She sold it about 11 years ago. Maybe I should tell her that her Yellow Bird is a movie star.


On a more recent note, at my job, there is a 20 LB sledgehammer with the words "BOOMSTICK" written on the handle.


*edit*can't get these gorram bold commands right.

Army of Darkness is the movie that I reach for when I want to just turn my brain off and sit down and laugh out loud. It is filled with gags, blood, and the best evil twin seen in a movie in a long time.
I'm happy that Hollywood has finally seen the talent that Sam is and given him a chance to put his visions on the big screen with a more marketable character and backing him up with plenty of advertising.

I remember once in college, after like the tenth drunken viewing of the whole trilogy, one of my roommates looked at me, and said..."Why do we do this!"

I was about to curse, but I couldn't...The part in Evil Dead where the girl's brain (Covertly disguised as oatmeal...I always thought it was creamed corn until I listened to the commentary...) was leaking out...All I said was "Look at that!"

And, that was the end of any protest about the Evil Dead Trilogy...My only problem was having everyone watch the rest of the before AOD. So, I usually watched Evil Dead early on...No one had any problems watching the second one, and there would be an assload of people around for AOD... And anyone bad mouthing it was forced out.

Think I'm kidding?

we used to put AOD on in the video store I managed, and someone would ALWAYS rent it. It was our single most profitable title for years! No other came close!
