Evil Dead
We went to see The Evil Dead last night and it was absolutely terrifying. I could not keep my eyes open after the first 30 minutes of the movie. I thought Mama was pretty scary, but this was just too bloody, too intense, and too scary. Tree rapage, bloody puke, and lots of violence. Missed out on a spinning head and chainsaw arm though. I don’t remember the last time I was this scared from a movie.

Ironically, I found the original scarier. It’s because the old special effects for gore were really weird. I didn’t really think about the movie after leaving though. Demonic possession type movies never really bother me (I can’t think of any exceptions to that rule). Even though I was grossed out a lot. Does the movie still bother you?
Also, there was no head spinning or chainsaw arm in this movie. Bleh. Somewhat disappointing.
@jedeyeyam - it actually bothered me a lot less than I expected it to! I guess having Steven around makes it less scary, but when I can’t sleep and I’m lying awake in my bed, some of those images (the few I did pick up from the movie) start to play themselves in my head. I think it helped that I didn’t open my eyes throughout 90% of the movie.
