It's very close but I think I like the original more.
It's more atmospheric, scarier and suspenseful. I really like how bloody it is, the blood and gore in the second movie was usually a different colour than red. The violence just felt more violent and visceral in the original. I also loved the visual look of the movie, it's a bit cheaper and rough around the edges but it's brighter looking compared to the second.
Don't get me wrong, I love the second movie too. I saw that one first when I was around 10 years old. Didn't see the original movie till I was about 16. I was scared and laughed a lot while watching Evil Dead 2, it's probably the most perfectly balanced movie of the entire series but I always find myself wanting the watch the original more often.
Also, I love the remake/reboot too!
