Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

The Evil Dead was mentioned in another thread but I'll mention it here. I saw it was available by Netflix streaming (though II and Army of Darkness are not). So I watched it since football is boring me.

Did not like it. Which isn't much of a surprise since straight up horror movies have never really done anything for me. I know the humor element is ramped up in the sequels so I'll still eventually give them a shot.

But this one was just boring screaming, splatter, and early '80s makeup effects. For people who can like that I can see why this is such a cult classic, though.
