Rent Ash vs. Evil Dead: Series 3 (2018)

Utterly bonkers but utterly brilliant - Ash vs. Evil Dead: Series 3 review by Jamielou

If you've seen the original (1980's) Evil Dead films and Army of Darkness from 1992 then you'll know who Bruce Campbell, aka titular stare Ash Williams, is.  The hero of those movies and this 30 episode 3-season classic.  If you don't, well... our man Ash (Bruce) found the Book of the Necronomicon in a hut in the woods in deepest rural America, which turned out to be a very bad day for him and his (then) wife, to say any more would be a whole new level of spoiler alert.  However, Ash then found himself transported back to the middle ages UK in Army of Darkness and whilst there fought off all kinds of evil things, before finding himself back where he began.

Flash forward 25 ish years and Ash finds himself back in America and once again entangled with the Book, and all the shenanigans that that entails, the usual stuff, fighting demons, shotgun hands, blood, gore, more blood....  All I can say if you've never seen an Evil Dead film begin with the trilogy above then watch this.  Preferably all in one go, although admittedly 30 episodes of around 30 minutes each is a fair chunk of your time.  You'll love it, maybe not as much as I did, but if gruesome non-PC horror-comedy with a liberal dose of gore is your thing, it's a treat.  Then you can wonder why after 3 seasons it got cancelled by Starz.  In a sick twisted world where Mrs Brown's Boys is still on TV, that's the biggest horror of all.
