Evil Ed
I've passed over this film a dozen times at my local video store cause it looked like a lame Evil Dead rip-off. However, I think that this film is kind of a tribute to Evil Dead and other horror movies. The camra effects and directing were taken striaght out of Evil Dead's book. Plus a character is named Sam Campbell, which I think is a combination of Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell. The are little parts taken from other movies here anf there, and were used in a clever way that made it a treat for those of us who dig horror movies. A cheesy but funny ode to horror. 3 out of 5.
