This gory comedy-horror is the sequel, come remake of the film The Evil Dead.

A young man named Ash (Bruce Campbell) takes his girlfriend Linda (Denise Bixler) to a secluded cabin deep in woodland.

When here the couple decide to play a recording of a professor Raymond Knowby tape which recites passages from the Book of the Dead,

Inadvertently, the two cast a spell which summon an evil force from the woods - this, unfortunately, turns Linda into a monstrous Deadite, and threatens to deliver the same curse on Ash leaving him worrying about his own mortality.

However, when the professor's daughter, the professor's associate, a mechanic and the mechanics girlfriend show up at the cabin, the night turns into a non-stop, grotesquely comic battle with chainsaw and shotgun on one side, demon horde and flying eyeball on the other.
