First.

FunFact: During the dark ages, it was believed that demons lived in the woods.

I think the main reason with the change of Ash's character is that Bruce Campbell over time especially after Evil Dead became more confident.

"Did i mention that they're within the woods?" That line makes me laugh every time.

When i was a kid, I used to dress up in a fat suit and pretend i was Newman from Seinfeld. My dad found my fat suit and set it on fire. I cried for three days. Great video by the way!

"This scene is so triggering and offensive, I LOVE IT!!!" Laughed so hard, I almost fell out of my chair.

"A buzz killer is worse than any actual killer." LMAO!!!

Evil Dead is a solid 10/10 for me IMO!! Saw this on vhs back when I was still in school. Blew my mind!!

Incredible film. Evil Dead is arguably the greatest example of what you can do on a low budget. Raimi built the ED house. ED 2 has Christmas lights on it.

So Evil Dead 1 & 2 are actually one long movie: at the 20:40 mark when "The Evil" rushes towards Ash and he screams (this being the ending of ED1) if you start Evil Dead 2 at the scene where Ash is flying through the trees, getting tossed around and smacked by branches, ED2 picks up right where ED1 ended. Real fun super-cut!

I’m super surprised that you haven’t reviewed Evil Dead 2. That and Eraserhead are my all time favourite horror movies!

I guess she got some wood after all

I remember that my teachers decided to show us this movie one time when I was like in 6th or 7th grade for some reason. It was somewhat edited from what I remember, but most of the stuff was left alone. I can't imagine a teacher showing this movie in this day and age to a group of 12 year olds without facing some jail time!

This is such a underrated channel.

i squealed when i saw this in my subscription feed, Evil Dead is my favorite trilogy besides Star Wars og trilogy, Bruce Campbell rules

Very cool. Loved watching some of the within the woods film clips. Well done.

Oh the days of VHS and going to rent movies. I think I stumbled on this in 1991 and the local video rental store. After we watched this we rented Evil Dead 2 and it was just in time to see Army of Darkness in the theaters. I have turned my two sons (24 and 13) into huge Bruce Campbell and Evil Dead fans. We can't wait to the new series on Starz. Keep the up the good work.

Idc how I just found this channel. My favorite subject with a guy doing it old school. I could easily see Dr. Wolfula on TV introducing and giving facts on our favorite horror movies, similar to Svengouli, or even my man Joe Bob. Great content!

The fake sleeping scene was a mirror to later in the film when Ash thought Linda was dead, but she kept waking up when his back was turned.

I didn't get to see the Evil Dead films until I was about fifteen but after hearing from friends about what happens in them I wanted to see them, and so I rented all three so we could have a marathon. Good times! I still think this movie is effective even though a little dated, however that doesn't ruin the movie or the experience for me, as it has a lot of strengths. A few years ago there was talk about releasing a cleaned up version of Within the Woods, and that it was going to be on a new release of The Evil Dead, but apparently it was cancelled at the last minute for some reason. But I do hope we eventually get to see that version of the movie.

Ah, what an awesome way to kick off Ahhctober. Looking forward to the next review!

8:35 It seemed to triggered a Judas Priest concert lol I'm a metalhead and I found that funny as hell

YES THE TIME HAS COME! Man it feels like i've waited a century for this to start back up

"and it suddenly raises a Judas Priest concert" I love that line!

Please do a review of cabin in the woods

Cloaked wolf-people wearing sunglasses with only one lens reviewing horror movies from the eighties are my trigger. :'(

3:04 & 5:17 So Within the Woods was made the same year Halloween was released, and the Evil Dead was released the same year as Halloween 2? Must be a good omen. But still, holy coincidences, Batman!

That rating sounds like 9.5/10.

Amazing just as I imagined! Thanks for reviewing this great movie and thanks for looking at my picture on Twitter :D. Can't wait for the next one to come! Happy AHHctober!

Lmmfao I love how Ash just laughs when Scotty says the dagger looks like his old girlfriend, like "yeah, it kinda does hahaha".

I'm never going around trees without my pepper spray ever again.

Must be Ahhctober because they let me out of my coffin. The Doctor is in

I just saw Evil Dead the Musical a little while ago and my God it was fantastic! Made me realize I need to give this movie a watch again.

The Evil Dead nice start DOC.

Hello ! The Evil Dead is one of my favorite movie ever Mr. Wolfula :D Thanks for reviewing it

When the killer is hard to see, your like "Hey what are you doing over there?" and "Wish i could see what's happening let's get closer and see it up close"

Dude I love your reviews. I like how you be honest, funny, and creative. Keep going on your youtube videos and keep reviewing.

I really liked the intro Doc! Keep up the good work bro, big fan!

Solid review and breakdown dude!

Greetings Dr. I've been a fan of you for not very long, but you surely have earned your place among my few favorite horror reviewers. Also I was freaking excited when you retweeted my tweet a while back (though it was all in Persian and I'm not sure if you fully understood what I wrote). Thanks and good luck.

I still have Evil Dead on VHS. Watching it this Halloween

Awesome! we got Ahhctober V real early! Thanks Doc!

Bruce Campbell is fantastic as ash William. 😀👍

Love the videos The Evil Dead is the best franchise ever

Hope you won't mind if I interject one other act into the backstory, Dr. W; the Cannes Film Festival were Stephen King saw Evil Dead and wrote his review coincided with a French wine festival that year. As a result the movie got some raucous viewings in front of drunken French audiences. King's endorsement and the rowdy audience reaction boosted the movie's profile and distributors started picking it up. Fun stuff, cheers!

Great review. I also liked the latest remake. I would like a autographed pic of you in that outfit. You are by far the best movie reviewer on youtube

my favorite horror movie of all time love everything about it the effects, music and all of the actors so nostalgic

F-ing love ash!

Awesome review. I love how your videos are just getting better and better the more you do them, keep it up :)

Absolutely brilliant Doc!! Best review ive seen. had me pissin myself with laughter. Awesome!!!

"Huge demon yoai hands". Amazing

I like being reminded of Dark Wing duck.

The absolute series best, perfect mix of comedy and horror.

"The Violence the blood and the gore" "Cheesems that pencil scene "

I miss this. ☺

I've been waiting for this review for the longest

Easily one of my fav horror films ever...I like it better than the 2nd because it was more pure horror

So that’s how clockwork became a creepypasta

Great review as usual I hope you do Evil dead 2.

Evil dead is one of my all-time favorite films. Don't get me wrong, I love Evil Dead 2 as well as everything that came after. I just think it works better as a serious horror flick.

it's good to see you doc, i enjoyed this

My favorite line is "that's the stupidest shit I've ever heard of"

I actually just watched this movie for the first time a few days ago. I really liked it. I didn't enjoy it as much as the second one, but it was a lot scarier.

Did anyone else notice when he did the spoiler warning the picture said "spoilies"?

Best AAHHTOBER theme

I really don't get why Raimi didn't just call the damned book the "Necronomicon"?! I mean, "Necronomicon Ex Mortis" is a gramatical clusterfuck! The term "Necronomicon" is all from Greek roots (like necro = dead) while "Ex Mortis" is from Latin (mortis, you got it, = dead). HP Lovecraft invented the word "Necronomicon" and says it came to him in a dream. It roughly translates to "book of the laws of the dead" or some translate it as "book of dead names". So adding "Ex Mortis" to it, forgetting the fact that it splits the roots between Greek and Latin, ends up with the name meaning, roughly, "book of the laws of the dead...of the dead" lol, or "book of dead names...of the dead" :)

Damn you're realy going all out this ahhctober

10:10-10:20 Well played, Dr. Wolfula, well played (and incredibly true).

Hey Dr Wolfula, do you plan to review Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness? They are of course amazing films! I'd also like a review of the Evil Dead remake from 2013, which was Raimi and Campbell's idea and they produced.

Nice! Will you review Dead By Dawn as well?

You should review ash vs evil dead it's really good

just found your channel i love it man! are you going to do the new evil dead?

That intro is amazing :)

I'm from Tennessee, It's beautiful

yes, finally another vid.

20:49 lol that kung Foo grip

Do the next 2nd Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2

I’m subbed to a few channels but this is my current most favorite and by far the most underrated. Indoctrinate me doctor

Wish dr.wolfula would do the rest of the series it's only been about 5 years lol

I'm from Morristown... This was filmed way before my time but I love it and been to the old cabin many times... Not much left of it now but the old curled up bridge was still intact last time I was there...

Always thought the eye scene was suspicion of each other

That pencil scene still makes my ankle tingle to this day

As a Choctaw native, i laughed out loud about us always being mad for our knicknacks

One of my favorite movies. As Ash, himself would say "Groovy"

5:21 / 5:27 Well, which is it? Are they college students or are they "kids?" Obviously, they're college students in their early 20s. The youngest is Cheryl (correct me if I'm wrong) who's 20 years old during the events of the first movie. 12:55 His difficulty with foreign languages (or maybe just memorizing things in general) is revisited in 'Army of Darkness'. 16:19 I think they used grits or oatmeal. Grits would be fitting since it was filmed in Tennessee.

That intro was awsome

the opening is like a sitcom

My first AHHCTOBER! So excited!

This movie scared the shit out of me the first time I saw it.

Sick Doc!! cheers

The best in the series by a large margin, imho, but I prefer straight horror.

I tell people who are curious about the first evil dead that it's like every horror movie made before it crushed into one. most prominent are: the exorcist, night of the living dead, and suspiria.

i fuckin loved this movie the first time i watch it, the second movie great too the third movie it's really different compared to what the first movie pretends to show but still is an enjoyable movie.

yo, video quality's well good fam.

This is one of my favorite movies ever

I can't stress this enough, but is Evil Dead 2 actually a sequel or a reboot, I can't tell.

i got uber excited seeing this in my subscription already hit the like button before the video started :)

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE It's finally happening!! I missed Ahhctober so much! :3

Awesome review and excellent film.

i loved the evil force and everything in it
