Product Description:
This campy tongue-in-cheek take on the sword-and-sorcery genre with its amaxing f/x will make you scream with fear and laughter. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 08/22/2006 Starring: Bruce Campbell Bruce Thomas Run time: 81 minutes Rating: R Director: Sam Raimi
Amazon.com:
A movie that only true horror buffs could love, Army of Darkness is officially part 3 in the wild and wacky Evil Dead trilogy masterminded by the perversely inventive director Sam Raimi, who would later serve as executive producer of the popular syndicated TV series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Raimi's favorite actor, Bruce Campbell, returns as Ash (hero of the first two Evil Dead flicks), a hardware-store clerk who is magically transported--along with his beat-up Oldsmobile and a chainsaw attachment for his severed left forearm--to the brutal battlefields of the 14th century. He quickly assumes power (who else in the Middle Ages packs a shotgun and a chainsaw?), and unites his band of medieval knights against the dreaded Army of the Dead. Raimi gleefully subverts almost every horror-movie cliché as he serves up a nonstop parade of blood, gore, and vicious sword-bearing skeletons--an affectionate homage to animator Ray Harryhausen's classic Jason and the Argonauts. The frantic action is fun while it lasts, but even at 80 minutes Army of Darkness nearly wears out its welcome. You know that Raimi can maintain the mayhem for only so long before it grows tiresome, and fortunately this madcap movie quits while it's ahead. --Jeff Shannon

Content: The Bottom Line:
Campy beyond belief (and intentionally so), Army of Darkness is not a particularly good movie and the weakest of its trilogy, but worth a look if you're in the mood for some schlocky comedy delivered by camp-master Bruce Campbell.
Summary: 2.5 stars out of 4

Content: In the original Evil Dead there was some intention to make a serious horror movie, with Evil Dead 2 a bit of that was retained, but much of it was replaced with slapstick and farce. In Army Of Darkness there is not a single serious moment to be had in this entire film. Take a bit of the Evil Dead movies, add a heathy dose of Howard,Fine and Howard, some Errol Flynn, a little Ray Harryhaussen, and every bad line from every second-rate action film ever made. The end result is nearly only fit for viewing through the lense of Mystery Science Theater 3000, but Bruce Campbell, Sam Raime and company actually pull it off. If you have any notion that this is a serious horror movie of any sort, you are either going to be very disappointed or extremely confused. If you loved Evil Dead 2 this will bring you more of the same only far more so, it takes farce to a whole new level and proves that you can make an intentionally "bad" B-movie, that's better then a great deal of the A-list stuff that's being churned out of Hollywood by the gallon.
Summary: What's the next step beyond shlockfest?
Rating - 5 Date: 2008-11-25
Content: The third movie of the Evil Dead trilogy and the best of the three. Enjoyable for the uninitiated and loyal Deadites as well.
Summary: A cult classic!
