First off if you haven't seen any of the "Evil Dead" films, it is an almost must before playing. I feel as if I am being harsh giving this game only 5 stars. Perhaps it's the fact the game is 4 or 5 years old. The game is short to start with and each level has pretty much the same layout with exceptions for a few. It wields a repetitive feel after about an hour of playing straight. Each level has you chasing objectives around a map, backtracking and making you feel as if you've done the objective a few times before. The humor is a little dry, but still clever at times allowing for a chuckle here and there. Accompanied by great voice acting by Bruce Campbell. The story is an average Evil Dead story should be nothing really that special. There's a total of three bosses in the game that are incredibly easy to defeat. The creppies in the game are cool but there isn't much of a variety. They range from deadites (Zombies in the Evil Dead Universe) and bigger bulkier troll like guys. Each with different sets of attacks and costumes for the deadites. The weapons and combat system is choppy but works nicely with the gameplay style. From shovels to gattling guns, Ash is armed to the bone with an arsenal large enough to stop a deadite army in it's tracks. I still feel the game lacks a few key elements, but don't get me wrong the game is pretty fun but I would only suggest it to fans of the series, like myself or survival horror fans. 5/10
