Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn

Kevin is joined by filmmaker David Bettencourt and film superfan Bryan Murray to discuss Sam Raimi's 1987 horror/comedy classic Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn!Evil Dead 2, which stars the great Bruce Campbell, is credited with inventing a new film genre - splatstick, which combines physical humor reminiscent of The Three Stooges with the extreme gore that was gaining popularity in the 80s with splatter and slasher films. It's also a monstrously original piece of filmmaking - Raimi's camera is always doing interesting things and it elevates what's ostensibly a cheap exploitation film to arguably one of the greatest films ever made. It's funny, it's scary, it's violent, and, yes, it's groovy.You can find David Bettencourt's films on his YouTube Channel! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
