Cinekuest Continues: Trilogy of the Dead Part 2 (Part 1 actually though): Birth of the Boomstick
In this episode, your favorite trio reviews Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn, alternatively titled “The Return to the Beginning”. What’s hilarious about this series is the fact that, rather than offering us the glory that is “Army of Darkness” after the cult hit of Evil Dead, we received a flaccid reboot of the aforementioned hit. Despite the rehash, we do get a glimpse into the ridiculous humor locked inside Sam Raimi’s brain! This movie is as absurdly funny as it is gory. We also get blessed with hilariously bad costumery and amazing practical effects. We realize you can only become so aroused, but this flick also features 100% more Ash. Groovy. All in all, this is basically the same story as the original with everything you loved about the OG version, but ramped up to 11. Welcome to sweet horror slapstick comedy majesty with gallons of blood, a dismembered, demonically-possessed hand, a girlfriend who has a thing for dancing in life and un-life, tentacle porn (again!), demons, demons, aaaaaaaand…you guessed it, more demons that are ready to swallow your sooooooooouuullll!!! Pfffft. We dare you not to laugh at this masterpiece of cinemaI. Join Daniel, Rey, and Roland as we chat about this flick with the underlying hope that the Book of the Dead’s prophecies come to pass.
