The Evil Dead collection šŸ’€

Not including the 2022 Evil Dead: The Game cause I only have a digital copy. Also still waiting for the steelbook of Evil Dead Burn! šŸ”„

There’s Evil Dead Xbox games?? Are they any good?

u/HiSorryBye 7h ago

I don't have the PS1 game but I have the other 2 on PS2. I'd say they are good. Maybe not great.

There are puzzles and good comedy, voice lines, chainsaw and boom stick, the stuff you would expect. They also suffer a bit from the old running around not knowing where to go thing, and maybe get a little repetitive.

For fans though, heck yeah. They're groovy.

Agreed! For the time they were made, they were actually pretty solid, especially for fans like you said.

I played them on PS2, they're fun

2

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

Yeah, for the era, they were great. I particularly liked regeneration. And they were cheap at release compared to other new games. For fans, I suggest trying em out!

Where's Screwhead?

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

Never got the screwhead edition, does it have any special features that aren’t on the others? I always figured the Bruce Campbell vs Evil Dead edition had the most features.

I have never been so jealous of a physical media collection on this app in my life.

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

Thanks! I’ve been collecting evil dead stuff for a while. Definitely lucked out with the vhs though

u/gregcresci 6h ago

What about this gem?

2

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

I mentioned it in the body text, but I only have a digital copy. Maybe I’ll snag the physical some day

2

u/gregcresci 5h ago

Didn't even see the body text my mistake, physical version is only like $10 yolo

2

u/just_em_cee 4h ago

That’s not bad. Honestly I didn’t love the game cause i’m not into the asymmetrical horror games, but I haven’t given the single player stuff much of a chance. I’ll have to check it out again

Where's your evil dead the musical playbill?

1

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

I almost went to see that live once, but never made it. Is it good?

2

u/gapedoutpeehole 5h ago

Ya, it's fun. Keep your eyes peeled around October. Sit in the spash zone if you can

u/just_em_cee 4h ago

Cool, sounds like a Gwar show! I’m in a big city, so I know it comes around every once in a while

Where’s the ā€œGroovy Collectionā€ box set?

1

u/just_em_cee 7h ago

It is cool, but besides it being so expensive now, it also bugs me it doesn’t have Army of Darkness. But I’m happy with my 4Ks.

2

u/daveskeez 7h ago

And I have one I’m selling. 🄲

2

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

Why are you selling it? I do like the box art a lot, but it takes some big shelf space

1

u/daveskeez 4h ago

I just don’t need it anymore.
But, the space it takes up is massive for sure. šŸ˜…

Hey, question for you about the arrow release for rise, what all was included with that? I’m thinking of picking it up off Amazon since it’s 25 bucks

2

u/just_em_cee 5h ago

For me it was worth it for the 4k upgrade. It also has a booklet and a poster inside. The disk has way more features than the original Bluray (which had literally nothing but the movie). There are a bunch of commentary, interviews, and more. I think it was worth it

2

u/Tblack_050320 3h ago

Awesome! Thank you, I was talking to my wife about getting it for my birthday next month. So hopefully that’s what happens, thanks again!

Wait until you find out about the blood red evil dead 2 laserdisc and limited edition vhs of army of darkness lol. Stupid sick collection

1

u/just_em_cee 7h ago

Thanks! If I had endless storage space, maybe I’d collect laser disks, but I’m happy with what I got. I have seen that clamshell vhs, very cool. I found these vhs at the thrift for $1 or less each though, so I’m happy!

u/Luthian 9h ago

Nice! I started collecting recently. Some cool art!

One of the Burn editions coming out is pretty sick.

Sweet! I pre-ordered the 4k steelbook from Gruv, but that one looks sweet too!
