Description of this Evil Dead Poster
The Evil Dead is a 1981 American supernatural horror film written and directed by Sam Raimi (in his directorial debut). The film stars Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, Richard DeManicor, Betsy Baker and Theresa Tilly. The story focuses on five college students vacationing in a remote cabin in a remote wooded area. After finding an audio cassette that, when listened to, releases a legion of demons and spirits, four members of the group suffer demonic possession, forcing the fifth member, Ash Williams (Campbell), to survive an onslaught of increasingly gory monstrosities.
Raimi, producer Robert G. Tapert, Campbell and friends produced the short film Within the Woods as a proof of concept to attract interest from potential investors, who secured $90,000 to begin work on The Evil Dead . Principal photography took place in a remote cabin located in Morristown, Tennessee, during a difficult shoot that proved extremely uncomfortable for the cast and crew. The film's numerous prosthetic makeup effects and stop-motion animations were created by artist Tom Sullivan. The completed film attracted the interest of producer Irvin Shapiro, who attended its screening at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival. Horror novel author Stephen King gave the film a glowing review, prompting New Line Cinema to acquire distribution rights.
The Evil Dead grossed $2.4 million in the United States and between $2.7 million and $29.4 million worldwide. Critical reception, both early and late, has been universally positive; In the years since its release, the film has gained a reputation as one of the most important cult films, cited among the greatest horror films of all time, and one of the most successful independent films. successful. It launched the careers of Raimi, Tapert and Campbell, who went on to collaborate on several films together, such as Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy.
The Evil Dead spawned a media franchise, with two direct sequels written and directed by Raimi, Evil Dead II (1987) and Army of Darkness (1992), a fourth film, Evil Dead (2013), which serves as soft reboot and sequel, a television series, Ash vs Evil Dead, which aired from 2015 to 2018, and an upcoming fifth film, Evil Dead Rise (2023); the franchise also includes video games and comic books. The film's protagonist, Ash Williams, is also considered a cultural icon.
Five Michigan State University students - Ash Williams, his girlfriend Linda, his sister Cheryl, their friend Scott, and Scott's girlfriend Shelly - spend their vacation at a remote cabin in rural Tennessee. Approaching the cabin, the group notices that the porch swing is moving on its own, but suddenly stops when Scott grabs the door handle. As Cheryl draws a clock, it stops and she hears a faint demonic voice telling her to "join us". His hand becomes possessed, turns pale, and draws a book with a demonic face on the cover. Although shaken, she does not mention the incident.
When the cellar hatch opens during dinner, Shelly, Linda and Cheryl stay upstairs while Ash and Scott investigate the cellar. They find the Naturom Demonto, a Sumerian version of the Egyptian Book of the Dead, as well as archaeologist Raymond Knowby's tape recorder, and take the items upstairs. Scott plays a tape of incantations that resurrect a demonic entity. Cheryl yells at Scott to turn off the tape recorder, and a tree branch breaks one of the cabin's windows. Later that evening, an agitated Cheryl goes into the woods to investigate strange noises, where she is attacked and raped by demon-possessed trees. When she escapes and returns to the cabin bruised and distressed, Ash agrees to take her back to town, but discovers that the bridge leading to the cabin has been destroyed. Cheryl panics as she realizes that they are now trapped and the demonic entity will not let them leave. Back at the cabin, Ash listens to the tape and learns that the only way to kill the entity is to dismember a possessed host. While Linda and Shelly play spades, Cheryl correctly announces the cards without looking at them, succumbs to the entity and levitates. In a hoarse, demonic voice, she demands to know why they disturbed her sleep and threatens to kill everyone. She stabs Linda in the ankle with a pencil and throws Ash into a shelf. Scott knocks Cheryl into the basement and locks her inside.
Everyone is arguing about what to do. Becoming paranoid after seeing Cheryl's demonic transformation, Shelly lies down in her room but is drawn to the window, where a demon rushes in and attacks her, transforming her into a Deadite. She attacks Scott before he throws her into the fireplace, slashes her wrist and then stabs her in the back with a Sumerian dagger, apparently killing her. When she revives, Scott dismembers her with an axe. Ash and Scott then bury his remains. Shaken by this experience, Scott decides to leave in order to find a way back to town. He returns soon after, mortally wounded by the possessed trees, and dies warning Ash that the trees will not let them escape alive. When Ash goes to see Linda, he is horrified to find that she is possessed. She attacks him, but he stabs her with the Sumerian dagger. Not wanting to dismember her, he buries her instead. She comes back to life and attacks him, forcing him to decapitate her with a shovel. His decapitated body bleeds on his face as he attempts to rape him. He manages to escape as Linda dies, then returns to the cabin.
Back inside, Ash discovers that Cheryl has escaped from the cellar. Cheryl escapes from Ash and attempts to strangle him. Ash escapes her grip, then shoots Cheryl in the jaw. As Ash barricades the door, Scott reanimates as undead. Scott attacks Ash, and inadvertently knocks over the Naturom Demonto near the fireplace. Ash tears out Scott's eyes and pulls a tree branch from Scott's stomach, which bleeds out and falls to the ground. Cheryl goes through the trapdoor and knocks Ash to the ground. As Scott and Cheryl continue to attack Ash on the ground, Ash grabs Naturom's Demonto and throws it into the fireplace. As the book burns, the Deadites freeze in place, then begin to rapidly decompose. Large appendages sprouted from the two corpses, covering Ash in blood. Scott and Cheryl's bodies then completely decompose. Dawn breaks, and Ash staggers out.
As he walks away from the cabin, an invisible demon moves quickly through the forest, rushes into the cabin and attacks him as he screams in terror.
