Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
Ash Williams, a sardonic hardware store clerk, is accidentally transported to 1300 A.D., where he must retrieve the Necronomicon and battle an army of the dead so he can return home.
"For the third part of the 'Evil Dead' saga, director Sam Raimi (later more famous for his Spider-Man trilogy) picked up the premise he had originally planned for his second sequel: Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) is sent by the magic of the Necronomicon to the 1300s, where he must face hordes of dead and adventure to find the Necronomicon in the past in order to return to his own time. 'Army of Darkness' has a lighter tone than its acclaimed predecessor, more geared towards adventure comedy than horror, but it's an interesting entry into the mythology of the saga created by Raimi."
