Grab your chainsaws and your shotguns, it’s time to talk about Evil Dead 2! In episode 23 of Triplecast we continue our series of Superior Sequels with this 1987 Sam Raimi cult hit. In our discussion of this movie we talk about the use of visual effects and horror movie tropes (and whether or not we think they paid off). We also talk about the use of comedy and humor in the movie, how the film’s over the top style actually works to its advantage, the impact and influence Evil Dead 2 has had on the film industry, and why this film is considered to be better than Evil Dead. We also talk about other projects that Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell have done, give you a game to play when you watch any Sam Raimi movie, and test Clint’s movie trivia prowess in our Name That Movie segment.
