Evil Dead II

Deadites and Kandarian demons, we're back after a week off with a PG-rated talk about the extremely R-rated Evil Dead II. Director Sam Raimi, star Bruce Campbell & their friends were able to pull off a monumental blend of comedy and horror in this landmark sequel. Actually, the laughs outnumber the shrieks. The gore-soaked set pieces and the creativity of the low-budget effects get an A+, but the narrative and some of the performances aren't as excellent. Campbell though, that B-movie legend, has boatloads of charisma and his go-for-broke director was good enough at his craft to go on to become a respected maker of blockbusters. So fire up your chainsaw hand, grab your boomstick and kindly make your easily-swallowed soul available for a possession as the 462nd Ellises' Analysis picks apart the groovy goods & the bloody bads of Evil Dead II.

Moulin Rouge

Moulin Rouge

The first episode of a non-theme month here in June (and the 743rd overall) gets loud about Baz Luhrmann's bombastic Moulin Rouge. It's the kind of zany project where the director and star of this Par...
