Customer Review: Evil Dead fan's dream
Summary: 5 Stars
This game has all fun campy horror of the movie and more. It plays like hunter the reckoning but with every ones favorite character Ash kicking the undead ... Great graphics and sound and Bruce Campbell does the voice of ASH!Customer Review: True to the trilogy, annoying to the gamer!
Summary: 2 Stars
I am an extremely huge fan of the Evil Dead trilogy and I couldn't wait for this game to come out. Playing the last games, Evil Dead:Hail to the King, I was very dissapointed and was hoping for something better than the PS1 game. So, I went to Blockbuster, picked up the game, and took it home. As soon as I got home I raced upstairs and started playing it. The introduction to the game was very good and I couldn't wait to start hacking up deadites. Then, when I started killing about 50 deadites in one small area, I started to get very annoyed. Plus, with all the objectives you have which are spread out about the whole town, it gets tideous and very annoying. Your health is very limited and you die when you least expect it. The cool parts of the game though, are the funny one liners which Bruce Campbell does himself and your classic selection of the shovel, shotgun & your chainsaw hand.If your a huge fan of the Evil Dead trilogy, then go ahead and play this, but I don't buy it, unless you really like it.
Customer Review: Good... Bad... I'm the guy with the gun.

Customer Review: Bruce Campbell vs. The Army of 9 gagillion Deadites.
Summary: 4 Stars
Listen up, you primative screwheads. This was an awesome game, definently worth the $$. I originally heard this game was "fast and easy". Well, that is a major FALSE because there are 500000000 deadites in one area, 2 health packs that only cure you up to two per each one, and 179 shotgun shells. This really increases the difficulty. I have had a hard time making it past the third level, and I am a very big gamer. That means all the people who play this game that consider it "easy and gast" are probably either nerds, liars, or people who run away from half the game just to beat it and not enjoy it. This game is difficult. Now, the puns and jokes in the game are very good, and Bruce Campbell does an excellent job bringing Ash back. My only problem is, sometimes he should have said things a little more seriously, and not go campy on every single line. Then again, this game is all about the campiness and slapstick from the movie. Tons of blood, gore, and moves! This definently sticks what the movies are famous for in a game. This is the closest to "Army of Darkness" as you can get. The controls are simplistic. There is...uh...magic in the game. This is a very good factor for your survival, so you will be using it often. It was a good thing to put since they put so many damn deadites. AND THEY KEEP RESPAWNING!!! The graphics are awesome, and do fit the game. ALthough, they do lose detail the closer you get to completion, but they are still very neat. I got barely any slowdowns, and that only happened when I had over 1000 deadites on the screen at once. The sound effects are great, although sometimes when I blasted my shotgun I got no "boom". The chainsaw sounds pretty realistic, but thank God that it's not nearly as loud. Overall, this is an AWESOME movie to game adaption. This is a buy for anybody that is a fan of campy movies and wants a good game along the same lines. It's cheap, and entertaining. Everybody should atleast give it a RENT. I pitty the fool who doesn't.Customer Review: seen worse
Summary: 3 Stars
The game gets a little boring pretty quickly and probably doesn't have great or even good replayability. However for the price its not bad.Don't be a fool and buy this game solely because its Bruce Campbel and Evil Dead 2-even though I too found it an interesting series to make a video game from.
Shotguns, chainsaws, and shovels are certainly fun to do the good lords work, but after a while you've been there and done that. Rent it first.
