For All You Evil Dead Fans

[John87ResidentEvil]

Evil Dead is one of my favorite movies ever. The 3 Bruce Campbell ones. Evil Dead, Evil Dead II : Dead By Dawn, and Army of Darkness. I remember seeing Army of Darkness first when I was a kid, and later realized there were 2 other films before it. Now its one of my favorites. For so long me, and probly thousands of other fans were wanting a 4th one to come out. Last year there was a 10 episode follow up on Stars. Season 2 is actually coming out later in the year also, and they'll be a Bluray or DVD set like next week or something.

Well anyway, Im saying this here, because In 2000, they made a Evil Dead game for Sega Dreamcast.
Evil Dead : Hail to the King, and believe it or not, it plays just like an old school Resident Evil. Camera, Inventory, puzzles. It is fun. Not extremely challenging, except for respawning enemies and a handful of bosses, but it is definitely worthy for any Evil Dead fan, or a Resident Evil gamer. Plus, Bruce Campbell does the voice in it and that alone is worth it. There are 2 other games for the original xbox, but they are more of an action lke 3rd person game, still fun though. I beat the one for dreamcast, I beat the 1st one for xbox, Its called, Evil Dead : A Fistful of Boomstick, and theres a 3rd game, Evil Dead : Regeneration. I haven't played that one yet, im going to soon. Ted Raimi is actually another voice guy in the 3rd, he plays like a little evil midget or something. I had these games for so long and I finally busted them out. A lot of people may not own a Sega Dreamcast or original xbox anymore, lotta people I know sell their old system for new ones, I don't like doing that. I still play original PS1 games here and there.

Saw the 2013 remake, I thought it was a good gore flick. Jane Levy is a really likeable actress.

"Evil Dead : Hail to the King" was the first game I ever pre-ordered. I didn't even know that was possible before the Dreamcast came out. I still have them both, and frequently think about firing them up and having a go.

As for "Ash vs. Evil Dead", I can't wait for season two! The first one excellent, and the teaser looks like they'll be keeping up that trend this time around.

Yeah, I saw it opening night! Definitely a fun thriller that left you with mixed emotions.

Also I watched Evil Dead 2 the other night- it's so ridiculous that it's good lol. Still need to see the very first one now.

I've always looked at the first "Evil Dead" as something of a demo, kind of like an early version of a song.
It basically tells the same story as the second movie, but it's more serious and rough around the edges. Personally, I much prefer the horror comedy slant the rest of the "Evil Dead" stuff has taken. you still get all of the soul-crushing darkness, but it's always immediately followed by full-on slapstick!
