The Evil Dead (1981)

Historically, successful horror films have relied more on the feelings they provoke and their originality than good performances or cutting-edge special effects. The Evil Dead is a perfect example of this in action. The rules of this supernatural story are at best loosely introduced, the special effects were made on the cheap and all of the actors have more than a few moments that aren’t convincing. While you're watching, none of that matters. This film has so much energy it sucks you right in and while it’s rough around the edges, the camera movement makes it look like a million bucks (rather than the $375,000 production it actually is). You watch it once and instantly become a member of the fan club.

University students Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell), his girlfriend Linda (Betsy Baker), his sister Cheryl (Ellen Sandweiss), their friend Scott (Hal Delrich) and his girlfriend Shelly (Sarah York) travel to an isolated cabin in the woods. In the cabin's cellar, they find a tape recording of the Sumerian Naturom Demonto. Once played, it summons demonic forces which mercilessly attack the group.

This is a horror comedy; a particular kind of horror-comedy that’s become a trademark of writer/director Sam Raimi. This is splatstick. Evil Dead pours on the gore. As the demonic forces attack Ash and his friends, they get caked in blood and guts. It’s so extreme you pass beyond the realm of revulsion. It feels wrong to find what's happening funny, until you start laughing.

You might be apprehensive about embracing the comedy at first because the film is actually frightening, or at the very least, disturbing. When Linda gets attacked, a sharpened pencil is jammed into her ankle, and then wiggled back-and-forth to make sure you understand how much it would hurt. When Cheryl goes to investigate strange noises in the woods, the results are the stuff of nightmares. Literally. It’s so surreal you’re not sure what you saw actually happened. "Could this movie really go that far? We were laughing ago, and we kind of feel like laughing now because… well, you just don’t see that kind of thing anywhere!"

The Evil Dead knows the rules of a horror movie. Most importantly, it knows when to break them and when not to. Between all the dripping and oozing, there are several false jump scares, and they work. Unexpectedly well because that initial tension is broken by something that turns out to be harmless. The release you want comes in a chuckle - exactly the reaction The Evil Dead was hoping for.

Now let's talk camera work. Long shots that move faster and faster as we get closer to the person in the frame fill you with a panic you wouldn’t expect from this scrappy little production. Even when you can see the seams, the idea propelling these visuals radiates through the screen and consumes you.

This movie is a lot like Night of the Living Dead, The Exorcist, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Three Stooges all blended together - while still alive - into a sticky red goo that’s wholly original. It’s so well directed, with such inventive camerawork and so effective at doing what it wants to do, you have to describe The Evil Dead as an imperfect masterpiece: a movie you probably couldn’t in all good consciousness give 5 stars to, but is a lot more fun and a lot more watchable than most 5 star movies you see. (Original version on Blu-ray, October 8, 2021)

SpaceX first discovered an issue with its spacecraft’s toilet last month while inspecting a different Crew Dragon capsule. Instead, the crew will have to rely on “undergarments,” Steve Stich, NASA’s Commercial Crew Program manager, told reporters Friday night. The Los Angeles Times called the film an “instant classic”, proclaiming it as “probably the grisliest well-made movie ever.” In a 1982 review, staff from the trade magazine Variety wrote that the film “emerges as the ne plus ultra of low-budget gore and shock effect”, commenting that the “powerful” and inventive camerawork was key to creating a sense of dread.Leaky SpaceX toilet problem will force astronauts to use backup ‘undergarments’ By Jackie Wattles, Business Updated 2311 GMT (0711 HKT) NovemAstronauts splash down after record-setting mission See how China and India are gaining ground in the The Evil Dead Shirt in contrast I will get this space race Watch: NASA’s mission Lucy blasts off to explore ancient asteroids See ‘Star Trek’ actor William Shatner reach space See Shatner’s emotional remarks after landing New York ( Business)Issues with the toilet on board SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule will leave a group of four astronauts without a bathroom option during their hours-long trip back home from the International Space Station aboard the 13-foot-wide capsule this month. Bob Martin, editor of Fangoria, reviewed the film before its formal premiere and proclaimed that it “might be the exception to the usual run of low-budget horror films”.

Upon its release, contemporary critical opinion was largely positive. The uncut version was rated FSK 16 in Germany in early 2017. In Finland, The Evil Dead was later released uncut on DVD by Future Film, and rated K-18. In 2001 an uncut German DVD version was released, but the Berlin-Tiergarten Court ordered seizure of the DVD in April 2002. A heavily edited version was made legally available in 1992. The “tree rape” scene in the movie was also described by some as being misogynistic. According to Bruce Campbell’s autobiography, If Chins Could Kill, Richard acquired his stage name by combining his short name with his roommates’ names, Hal & Del.īecause of its graphic violence, the original version of the movie was banned in several countries, including Finland, Germany, Iceland and Ireland. They are credited in the credits as “Hal Delrich” for Richard and “Sarah York” for Theresa. However, the shooting of a suspense scene in one film, It’s Murder!, got Raimi interested in shooting a feature-lengthed to secure a budget of $350,000, and with the cast and crew – found via a local ad, as well as being made up of family and friends of Campbell and Tapert – headed for a wilderness cabin in the end under different “stage names” during the shoot, since they were members of the Screen Actors Guild and wanted to avoid being penalized for participating in a non-union production. Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell, and Robert Tapert had collaborated on several short films in college, which were mainly comedies.

The film currently holds a 98% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is considered to be one of the largest cult films. Despite the hardships, the film was released to positive reviews, including a rave review from Stephen King, calling it “the most ferociously original horror film of the year”, allowing it to secure an international distributor, the then-unknown New Line Cinema. The film was a hardship for the cast and crew, being filmed at an actual cabin in Morristown, Tennessee, secluded from the nearby town. It is based on the short film Within the Woods, which served as a ‘prototype’ that allowed Raimi to secure $90,000 to produce the film. This launched the careers of Raimi, Campbell and Tapert, who collaborated on films for years afterwards. Despite its low budget and the melodramatic bad acting due to the actors inexperience, the film was a commercial success, grossing more than $2.4 million in the United States and $27 million internationally, for a worldwide gross of $29.4 million. The Evil Dead (Evil Dead) is a 1981 supernatural horror film, written and directed by Sam Raimi, starring the then-unknown Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss and Betsy Baker.

Uma Noite Alucinante: A Morte do Demônio (1981)

The Evil Dead

Direção: Sam Raimi;

Roteiro: Sam Raimi;

Gênero: Terror; 

País: EUA.

Nas mãos de Sam Raimi, um diretor extremamente criativo, uma quantidade baixíssima de recursos financeiros transformou-se numa obra-prima do terror e do gore. A criatividade de Raimi fica ainda mais evidente se considerarmos a banalidade do roteiro - cinco amigos acampando numa velha cabana abandonada e mal-assombrada -, e o amadorismo geral do elenco e da equipe de produção. Mesmo com todos os ventos soprando contrariamente, Uma Noite Alucinante: A Morte do Demônio é um filme muito bem realizado narrativamente e, sobretudo, tecnicamente. Mobilizando a câmera com proficuidade, através de movimentos e ângulos ousados, Sam Raimi definiu novas perspectivas para os filmes de terror-gore: são interessantíssimos e arrepiantes os momentos em que a câmera assume a perspectiva da entidade possessiva, flutuando pelo bosque e perseguindo suas vítimas. Os recursos sonoros também foram excelentemente empregados: em diversos momentos, o clima de suspense e terror é prenunciado apenas pela sonorização. Como as possessões demoníacas só são derrotados com o esquartejamento da vítima, o que promove-se no filme é um verdadeiro batismo de sangue. 

Cinco amigos decidem passar a noite acampados numa cabana abandonada em meio a um bosque: entre eles, Ash (Bruce Campbell, desempenhando caricata e ironicamente o papel prototípico do macho estadunidense), sua namorada Linda (Betsy Baker) e seus amigos, Scott (Hal Delrich), Cheryl (Ellen Sandweiss) e Shelly (Sarah York) - esta última, a única solteira do grupo e, sugestivamente, a primeira a ter seu corpo possuído pela entidade demoníaca, acenando subliminarmente com uma associação entre possessão e virgindade. Após uma premonição de que haveria algo estranho no porão da cabana, Ash e Scott descem até lá para averiguar e acabam encontrando artefatos estranhos, como o “livro dos mortos”, um punhal com o cabo feito de ossatura humana e uma gravação que contém a leitura de um ritual invocatório. A audição da gravação provoca involuntariamente o despertar das entidades possessivas que rondavam o local. Até o despertar do dia, os cinco amigos deverão lutar bravamente contra os espíritos demoníacos e por suas respectivas sobrevivências. 

Apesar da fragilidade na caracterização das monstruosidades, aspecto que pode parecer risível para o espectador do tempo presente, Uma Noite Alucinante: A Morte do Demônio ainda é capaz de arrepiar todos os pelos do corpo. 

⭐ 4.3 / 5.0

The Evil Dead (1981)

This film has one of the largest cult followings, and is considered one of the best horror movies of all time. That, obviously, is only a matter of opinion. This group of friends goes to a cabin in the woods, listens to a tape, and then demons attack and possess all of them with only one survivor. It looked cheap, it was not scary, and the demon makeup was laughable. One of the worst horror movies I’ve ever seen. The fact that it’s on a list of the best is the most pretentious thing I’ve ever heard.

Rating: F. Not once was I entertained.
