“Sam Raimi’s 1981 breakout feature remains profoundly unsettling due to the gonzo vigour with which he attacks his subject.” – The Times (UK)

“It’s a great audience participation show.” – The New York Times

“The Evil Dead still feels like the punchiest horror flick this side of a Dario Argento gialli.” – Slant Magazine

Ashley “Ash” Williams (Bruce Campbell), his girlfriend, and three pals hike into the woods to a cabin for a fun night away. There, they find an old book, the Necronomicon, whose text reawakens the dead when it’s read aloud. The friends inadvertently release a flood of evil and must fight for their lives or become one of the evil dead. Ash watches his friends become possessed, and must make a difficult decision before daybreak to save his own life in this, the first of Sam Raimi’s trilogy.
