when you said that few people know about this trilogy you didn't realy bother to find out that this and the oter evil dead movies are one of the most popular horror movies of all time....FAIL!
Ed eats the redneck's grrlfriend's hair, not Annie's. Jake is the redneck and Bobbi Jo is his grrlfriend. Annie is the daughter of Professor Knowby and the grrlfriend of Ed who is also Professor Knowby's associate professor.
Sam Raimi took some cues from Hitchcock AND The Three Stooges. Now THAT is a winning combo!
\8-D
Have you seen Crimewave? It was a colab between the Super Raimi Bros. and the Super Coen Bros. Raimi divorced his name from the movie but I don't see why. It's really not bad. In fact, it's better than bad. It's GREAT!
Agreed. I saw this movie when it came out. It's not bad perse, it's amusing and all that. But kinda like the review is suggesting I do find it's highly overrated. But then just about anything that gets the tag "cult classic" is bound to have a rampaging fanbase that will protect it against ANY negative point made.
@cdbils001 You obviously don't understand the humor in it then and the whole concept of it and the fact that it was made with a very small amount of money, make no mistake it is a very good film.
@cdbils001 You just said its not a good film. Your mistake is saying that in any way this movie could be considered bad, everything about it was top notch. It accomplished what it intended, its not unintentionally great.
Evil Dead series became pure classic of Comedy/Horror genre. Bruce Campbell did a great job. Evil Dead 2 was a good as original and Army of Darkness. You can find many hilarious, entertaining and even shocking scenes. The 80's made awesome comedy/horror films like Evil Dead 1 and 2, House 1 and 2, Elvira Mistress of the Dark etc
has bruce campbell ever been in a movie where he wasn't an asshole? I haven't watched this but i didn't think much to the first one anyway. The follow up Army Of Darkness was just hilariously emabarrassing.
This movie seems to at least understand that no one will ever take it seriously so therefore just pokes fun at the entire genre. 10/10 review shitcase
Back in the late '90s, I watched this movie so much I wore out my tape! XD So I bought another one. Then later, I bought it on DVD. I like the grit of VHS. It's also more reliable. Tapes can wear out, sure, but a little scratch on a DVD jacks it over. Jake from DbD and The Blacksmith from AoD both have cameos in 'My Name Is Bruce'. The moral of the stories of TED and DbD is: Don't jack around with the occult. Some people have actually spliced TED together with DbD so they merge togethernether.
evil dead 1 should be here i saw it so i could see this one and the 3rd one and my god it was so shit and boring youve probibly seen it so would you agree mate
you can actually find the movie on the internet if you google "turkish star wars" !
if you not know it at least give it a go (as you seem to enjoy so much bad movies , you should at least watch this!)
by the way i am a fan of your bad movies rewiews , i have watched all of them now, all awsome hours of laughter and guilty pleasures! trolls 2 , PLAN 9 and ZARDOZ are my personal favorites so far... keep going guys!
@FLASHoverlord Thanks a lot :) I am aware of it as "professor Bruce" showed me a clip of it ages ago but I wasn't too interested. I'll check it out sometime though, for sure! OH MY GOD!
@lionel346 Thanks. There are a couple of western's I like, but have never planned to review any. The closest I have come is a review of an Elvis film called Charro some months ago.
Ted Raimi (heh...T.E.D.) plays the possessed Henrietta and Sam plays one of the knights at the end (the one who says "hail he who has come from the skies to deliver us...from the terrors of the Deadites!"). Sam is known to have been inspired by Ray Harryhausen. Ivan, the "other" Raimi, doesn't seem to get as much notoriety. Sam is obsessed with the 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 (and it has to be piss yellow with a white top). Bruce hates that car but Sam loves it. Sort of a Detroit pride thing.
I was thinking of seeing this movie, since I saw the first one and I was rather impressed. But now that I see this review I'm thinking that the series was just not taken seriously afterwards. XD I remember I saw Amry of Darkness and I turned my tv off. I'm one of those people that can't take extremely bad acting, jokes, and horror all in one movie.
@GomeztheWolf No, no, no! You should definately see it. 'Dead by Dawn' is the cleverest and best movie ever made (second only to 'WALL-E'). Sure, it's not historically accurate, but it's not an educational movie (durr). By historically accurate, I mean the Sumerians didn't have books, they had clay tablets. And the Red Sea never was made out of blood. And the Sumerians wouldn't have used the nomenclature "Necronomicon ex Mortis" because that's Latin. Sumerians spoke the language of Sumer.
When you see Ash fly through the air and spin around, that's technically the beginning of the story of DbD.
Historical FunFact: Sumerians would not have written a "bo0k" since papyrus didn't exist in their time, though the illustrations in that bo0k lo0k awesome. Sumerians used a system of writing called cuneiform (based on pictographs) which they chiseled into clay tablets. Archaeologists consider it to be the oldest systematized form of recording information (discluding cave paintings).
Possessed Ed Getley (I think his last name is Getley) eats Bobbi Jo's hair (Bobbi Jo is the grrlfriend/wife/sister/whatever of Jake), not Annie's (who's the grrlfriend and research associate of Ed). I know you didn't want to hear this nerdy detail stuff which is exactly why I'm tormenting you because I'm a sadist like that.
}:-D
Also, only the first 5 minutes of DbD is a condensed retelling of TED since Raimi couldn't get fo0tage from the original due to lame studio politics.
Invisible Harley Davidson mowing down people in the woods! ^_^ Evil Dead still has the infamous tree rape scene though...pretty hard to top in terms of perversity.
Great review as always, definitely should do 'Army of Darkness' because, believe it or not, it takes the whole slapstick/horror thing to a whole new level!
I didn't know about the whole "horror-comedy" thing either. I thought this was a legitimate sequel to ED 1. Which is why when I first watched it I got seriously pissed off. I learned to appreciate it later, however.
@IloveOtherPplsMsry It's satire. Shitcase cinema reviews are always tongue in cheek. He's British and our sense of humour is a lot different to other countries, we like to be deadpan about it. It's called taking the piss, in which you say something bad about something in a serious way, but you are in fact not being serious. It tends to confuse the hell out of people from other countries, but after you're exposed to it for long enough you learnt to recognise when it's humour and when it isn't.
