Synopsis:
"Trapped
In Time.
Surrounded By Evil.
Low On Gas.
Bound in human flesh, inked in blood - and amazingly
hard to pronounce - the ancient "Necronomicon" (Book
of the Dead) unleashes unspeakable evil upon mankind in director
Sam Raimi's (Darkman)
outrageously hilarious sword-and-sorcery epic.
Back to do battle with the hideous "Deadites,"
Bruce Campbell reprises his
role from the Evil Dead series as Ash, the handsome, shotgun-toting,
chainsaw-armed department store clerk from S-Mart's housewares
division. Demonic forces time warp him - and his '73 Oldsmobile
- into England's Dark Ages, where he romances a beauty (Embeth
Davidtz) and faces legions of undead beasts, including
a ghastly army of skeletons. Can Ash save the living from
the evil dead, rescue his girlfriend, and get back to his
own time?
Overflowing with spectacular special effects,
Army of Darkness will make you scream with fear and laughter."

My oppinion:
This is one of my all time favourite movies
and in my opinion it's the best one in the "Evil Dead"
trilogy. Bruce Campbell
really did a great job in it, and I don't think a movie exists
with this many brilliant "one liners" as there are
in this one (visit my "MovieQuotes"
section for a little taste). The story is fun, effects are
nice and the acting is good. Campbell's character, Ash really
comes off as a king amongst primitives, as he calls the natives.
I've probably seen this movie at least 15 times, and it brings
out just as many laughs from me now as I did the first time.
If you haven't seen this one, you definantly should! This
belongs in any man's (or woman's) movie collection!
My rating:
