Army of Darkness

aka: Evil Dead 3
USA 1992, 85 minutes
Dir. Sam Raimi
Rating: [R16]
Genres: Horror, Comedy, Science Fiction / Fantasy

Aroview: Raimi's third 'Evil Dead' movie is an out-and-out Pythonesque comic-fantasy in which the hero, Ash, confronts simpleton locals and wretched demons in the Middle Ages. Laden with special effects, break-neck editing and smug one-liners.

3 stars (Good Enough) Awesomely silly horror-fantasy-medieval world in which Campbell tackles the undead with a chainsaw as an arm and boomstick in hand. The effects may have aged, but the one-liners are still great. ~Tom H

3 stars (Good Enough) This is a lot of fun, gone is the horror and replaced with slapstick comedy and cheesy fantasy, but Bruce Campbell is great again and the film is just pure entertainment. ~Anon

4 stars (Very Good) The most comedically satisfying, tightly structured, visually daring, conceptually ambitious, and overall well executed film I think Sam Raimi's probably ever made. ~gradientboon
