The Evil Dead is hands down the single greatest horror film of all time. Its plot is simple and direct, the characters are few and interesting, and the pacing is wonderful. I had been a fan of horror for several years before seeing this movie. I read about it and wanted to see it, but at the time it was harder to find than uranium. I finally got to see it on the Sci-Fi Channel in the early-to-mid 90s, and I was spellbound. This movie scared the hell out of me and left me creeped out for a good while after it was over. After seeing this movie, my lifelong love of horror was cemented. If you are a horror fan and haven't seen this film, WATCH IT!!! And shame on you for not seeing it earlier.
