Evil Dead 2

Evil Dead 2 (1987)
[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092991/]

The Gist:
Ah Bruce Campbell, you campy bastard. You even have the word "camp" in your last name! Anyway, Evil Dead 2 is something of a remake of the first Evil Dead which apparently was supposed to be serious but turned out so bad that it became a campy cult film. This film, on the other hand, is fully aware of what it is and is all the better for it. Unlike Army of Darkness, which is imminently quotable, this film succeeds more on its ridiculous stop motion low-fi CG and it's odd plot that at times seems bafflingly nonsensical (at one point Bruce Campbell is flung across the forest by evil forces, turns into a zombie, and then turns back to normal again with really no story prompt at all). For the select few that can make this sort of exaggerated filmmaking really work, who are aware of the kind of film they are making, films like Evil Dead 2 can transcend into brilliance.

On Another Note:
Best part of the film: dead girlfriend skeleton dance.
