A superb yet really, really creepy horror, which makes 'The Evil Dead' one of the finest horror movies out there. What makes this gore fest stand out is its unique scene between a woman and a tree.

Although I enjoy 'Evil Dead II' the most, I'll never forget the shock this film gave me the very first time I saw it. In fact, I can never get over the pencil in the ankle scene. This film not only made a superb start for both Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, it led to the creation of one of the biggest cult franchises out there.
