Best of the trilogy in my opinion...nothing beats horror comedy.

I've loved Army of Darkness for years, and I own the normal theatrical release and the director's cut with what was meant to be the original ending. 



"In the beginning the Universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

They came up with quite a few endings for it didn't they.  I thought the supermarket ending was a bit rubbish in my opinion, too cheesy even for Army of Darkness.

I get what you're saying but I still liked that ending, the altyernate ending was even cheesier.

Yes the post-apocaytic world was cheesy, but in effect it was a cheesy film...cheesy for comedic effect.

Swallow your soul, swallow your soul, all  three films are excellent, found the third film funny.

Monty Python's great.

Yeah, does anybody else not understand how evil dead I gets to Evil Dead II? Is it a remake or does Ash go back to the same evil cabin? If it's in order than how is there still a necronomicon after they burn it?

From what I understand Evil Dead (the original) was one he made for a film class and it was meant to be a true horror movie, but unfortunately most people thought it was terribly funny in parts, so when he had more money he decided to retool and remake the original, but this time gear it more towards the humor end.  Alas this is just hearsay from Raimi fans I've known.  If anyone can confirm that, more power to you.

Sounds abut right to me. Is it just me or has that series made anyone else VERY afraid of trees?

The necronomicon can't be destroyed easly, it wooulld be nice if it was real though you could conjure up all sorts of weird shit and send the entire planet to a demon infested hell, my kind of dream and world.
