It'll swallow your soul...

Advantages: Surprisingly good picture for such a low budget film, although age is starting to show through
Disadvantages: All the extras are the same as the previous DVD release

...be surprised how many times Evil Dead II appears on people's Top 10 lists. Hell even quite a few Top 5 lists may feature it. It might even occupy the top slot on some of those lists. The half remake/half sequel to the The Evil Dead was directed by the now very famous Sam Raimi a million years before he got his hands on Spider-Man and, perhaps unfairly, will always be seen as his masterpiece by genre fans. It wouldn't be until Drag Me To Hell ...
...release. Optimum Releasing has brought Evil Dead II to Blu-Ray as it did previously on DVD. In fact the extras on the back look very similar... Oh wait, they're the same. Of course this isn't a terrible thing, the commentary track for example is one of the funniest I've ever had the pleasure to hear. I actually like to put the film on every now and then to just listen to the track. Yes, I am that sad. The cast joke with each other and recall fond ...

Final Destination

Advantages: Above average horror
Disadvantages: Acting

I have to say I'm not a huge horror movie fan, especially with American movies, the last one to amuse me being that tongue-in-cheek one where the scarecrow thing attacks the school bus. But with a real buzz around films like Paranormal Activity, 'Let the Right One', a subtitled vampire winner from Sweden, and this, it seemed a good time to dabble. As the title suggests someone is going to be dragged to hell and before their time, always a good angle ...
...facing the flames. And with Sam 'Spiderman' Raimi directing, he who cut his teeth in this genre with the first two excellent Evil Dead movies, you know its going to be visually appealing and a little bit creepy. It did $80 million world-wide from a $30 million budget, which is pretty good for horror. Quentin Tarantino named this as number three in his top ten films of the year. Not that that means much. Its not, however, the masterpiece the notable ...
