Sam Raimi… I don't know, he makes a couple of good superhero movies, then goes nutso! Remaking
Evil Dead? Dude, DON'T DO IT! The original is a classic in every way,
leave it be. Put down the camera and back away. It's New Coke. Someone grab his arms. HE'S REACHING FOR A PEN!
As if the cup of relative misery of this particular Evil Dead fan wasn't already filled to overflowing, here we have
some more screenshots of the Evil Dead Regeneration. Now while it's unfair to condemn the game without having played, I
will say this. The first Evil Dead game on the PS1 was one of the most attrocious games I've ever played. Perhaps I
didn't give it long enough, it was a rental after all, but it's was horrible.
However, maybe I just love the movies too much. Hell, maybe I'm completely wrong and the prior game was a classic.
Don't mind me. I'll just be in the corner, quietly grumbling into my beer about how Raimi has "sold out", and how old
school I am compared to everyone else, then quietly weeping when nobody will talk to me.
Happy days. (You wait. They'll make a game of that at some point.)

Fistfull of Boomstick for PS2 was pretty fun for the $20 it costs. Guessing you overlooked that too, eh Parsons?

You know Evil Dead 2 was basically a remake of the first one. Why not do it again? Go Raimi Go!

IMO, the first Evil Dead was nothing more than a B horror movie the second one I liked more but when Raimi made Army of Darkness that was the good stuff. The comedy and cheesy lines mixed with adventure was what make this in my mind a cult classic. I still love the movie to this day.
