Campbell is just as funny as ever, and the script is clever and fresh, and 100% in line with the originals. The Deadites are Deadites, not like the more standard possessed in the remake.
My only gripe is that there are a few CG head explosions, which never would have happened in the original trilogy, even if the technology existed then, but I guess times change. No more claymation splatter, and there's a fight with a cute CG toy doll, which in spirit, feels like it would fit in Army of Darkness, but the effect is typical modern animation.
Overall though, this is easily going to be my most anticipated show each week. Good going, Sam and Bruce!

I loved it too, I think they went overboard on the little CGI they used to make it come across campier. They could have done it more cleanly but it almost seemed like they tried to make it over the top. It was wicked, my only complaint would be the opening scene. Its not really in Character for Ash to pick up sleazy chicks in bars. But I think I kind of understand what they where trying to do. Regardless, it was incredible!
