Raimi is by not the first to shoot a scene with the camera tilted diagonally (which is called a Dutch Angle by the way). This technic was started in the 1930's in Germany. Orson Welles later made it popular in America with The Third Man (1949).
Though a lot of Raimi's technique were not often used in horror movies during that time period and it banned in a few countries for a while because of it's excessive gore.
Personally, I like Evil Dead 2 the best. The story is just great and I love the evil hand. Evil Dead always seemed to feel a little student filmish to me and Army of Darkness can be a little too campy.
