Evil Dead II (1987)

Bruce Campbell returns as Ash Williams, whose peaceful cabin retreat with girlfriend Linda takes a sinister turn when they play a recording from the cursed "Book of the Dead," leading to Linda's possession. Raimi's masterful direction blends horror and humor, with Campbell's iconic performance as Ash, who transforms into a chainsaw-wielding hero. The film's unique balance of scares and laughs, along with its influential "shaky cam" technique, makes it a must-see cult classic that's both terrifying and uproarious, cementing its place in horror history.
