army of darkness is a weird movie its funny and got some good gun play but whats up with the cartoon like special effects.

are the older evil dead movies better?

No, the other films are not better (IMHO).

The "effects" are one of the things that make the movie great:
They are so bad, that they rule.

If you judge “better” by budget, then no they are not better.  Personally, I feel each evil dead stands on its own as cheesy horror master pieces.  I don’t care if Evil dead 2 is half of Evil Dead one remade…

All the evil deads are CLASSIC! You should start from the first one and work up.

One of the greatest movies of all time.

I found the first two so-so. Army of Darkness is one of my all time favorites.

Trapped in time
Surrounded by Evil
Low on gas

Of course the earlier Evil Dead/Evil Dead 2 movies are worth watching.....they star Bruce Campbell.  Hail to the King, baby!

They're all good, but "Army..." is the best.  I want to get the directors cut DVD.  Hail to the king baby!

evil dead ii has got to be at least *tied* w/ army for great campy horror.

"and now i fear that my wife has become host to a candarian demon"

also, evil dead i has got the most disturbing (and possibly only outside of anime) rape by  a tree scene.

Ash: "Come get some."

These movies suck so bad.  I love them.

"Gimme some sugar"  If you can't pick up the Babes with that line or any of the hundreds of other great lines for these movies, you are definately suspect! rocko.

This...is my boomstick! It's a 12 guage double barrelled Remington, S-mart's top of the line...you can find this in the sporting goods department...that's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan, retails for about $109.95, got a walnut stock, colbalt blue steel, and a hair trigger.

You forgot the last part... "Shop smart... shop S-Mart!"

What a great movie.  I bought the director's cut edition on DVD and it has a TOTALLY different ending than the TV version.

The part in Evil Dead where his posessed hand starts beating the shit out of him is CLASSIC.

Damn......I thought "evil dead army of darkness" was a topic about the Democratic Underground.

the movie is one of the greatest ever made, created by a fellow MSU spartan sam raami, on a very low budget hence the cartoonish special effects.

  (BOOM)
Ash:    That's it.  Go ahead and run.  Run home and cry to mama. Me!  I'm through runnin'.  I say we stay here and fight it out!

Arthur: Are all men from the future loud mouth braggarts?

Ash:    Nope.  Just me baby... just me.
