Plot:
The Evil Dead
(The Ultimate Experience in Grueling Horror) is a classic cult horror
film. Five college kids take a holiday in a remote log cabin where they
find the mysterious Book of the Dead (The Necronomicon) and a tape
recording that belonged to the owner of the cabin. In the surrounding
Tennessee forest the evil dead lie in wait for the ancient incantation
that will give them license to inhabit bodies of the living. The five
friends listen to the tape recording and unwittingly resurrect the
slumbering demons. One by one, Cheryl, Scotty, Linda and Shelly are
possessed by the spirits of the dead and turned into grotesque murdering
zombies whose thirst for revenge is insatiable. As the night wanes, only
one man remains: Ash (Bruce Campbell). He must now defend himself while
trying to uncover the horrible secret of The Evil Dead.
