Cool man!
Yeah the Evil Dead was something-I remember being so wowed and awed by the strangeness of the ending of the second one, saying to myself "how did we get from a deserted cabin to the Dark Ages"?
Army Of Darkness was great! And funny.
Definitely a crazy cap to a wild series.
I also like another American TV film called
'Don't be Afraid Of The Dark' about a woman who, against the will of her handyman, unbolts the sealed door of her fireplace, and unleashes a trio of midget demons who terrorize her all the way thru the film. TV movies were never as good as this but again it was the 70's.
And yes, since you are from Australia, you are probably familiar with my fave science fiction show, Lost In Space. The first season was total terror and hardcore sci-fi, but as the second and third seasons came to bear, the show sucked.
Had it stayed as hardcore to sci-fi as it was in the first B&W season, it would have remained for many years to come.
By the way, I have met the entire cast of Lost In Space, and have their autographs in a series of 'Then-And-Now' group shots. Jonathan Harris recently passed away, but I count myself damn lucky to have known him from the conventions.
87 years old and he always flew out from Los Angeles every year, and he always remembered his fans from the previous shows. He had a good long life and I for one miss him dearly.
