Join Matt and Ben as they dive into the history of Evil Dead II, its strange production history, and its impact on the horror and slipstream genre. Evil Dead II gave way to the comedy horror trope that relied not on satire, but instead its own honest sense of humor contrasted with bloody horror. This style of storytelling would become not only a staple of the franchise but would shape popular culture for years to come. This is The Return of the Movie.
