Army of Darkness
“Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas.”
Premium Crap. CrapScore 74, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Ash takes his chainsaw, shotgun and spectacular confidence into the Middle Ages. Sam Raimi's deliberate slapstick fantasy gives Bruce Campbell skeletons to fight and endless opportunities to make a terrible first impression. The effects are inventive; the hero's judgement is magnificently unreliable.
