Last Updated on September 7, 2023

A new episode of the Revisited video series has just been released, and in this one we’re looking back at the 1987 Sam Raimi classic Evil Dead II (watch it HERE)! To revisit Evil Dead II with us, check out the video embedded above.

Directed by Raimi from a screenplay he crafted with Scott Spiegel, Evil Dead II has the following synopsis: After a relaxing cabin vacation doesn’t go as planned, Ash is left with three dead friends, an undead girlfriend and an angry evil spirit on the loose. As nightfall approaches, Ash must prepare to again battle the legions of the damned if he wants to make it to dawn.

The film stars Bruce Campbell, Sarah Berry, Danny Hicks, Kassie Wesley, Richard Domeier, Denise Bixler, John Peaks, Lou Hancock, William Preston Robertson, and Ted Raimi.

The Evil Dead II episode of Revisited was Written, Narrated, and Edited by Lance Vlcek, Produced by Lance Vlcek and John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

Several series on the JoBlo Horror Originals YouTube channel have been released under the Revisited banner in the past. (Episodes of Best Horror Movie You Never Saw, The Black Sheep, Deconstructing, Horror Party Movies, Best Foreign Horror Movies, Playing with Fear, and Real Slashers have all been labeled Revisited on YouTube.)
