My fiance had to remind me that this movie was a remake/reimagining of Evil Dead, not Evil Dead 2, which I think changed my perspective a bit...
Personally, I have heard that a lot of people loved Evil Dead II, but I have to say I do not agree. It was pretty good, but the first film, to me, was much better. I thought everything about the original was really good. I liked the horror elements of the original. The comedy in Evil Dead II was pretty good, but the film just did not click with me. Subsequently, I have seen the original many times, but the sequel only once. I was very happy that the remake returned to Evil Dead's roots of horror. Ultimately, I thought Evil Dead II was a pretty good movie, although a bit overrated (in my opinion), but The Evil Dead was vastly superior.
