Fear and Memories of The Evil Dead
Quotes about The Evil Dead
The first Evil Dead, when I first saw it, I was mortified. Petrified. I was afraid. I saw it at a friend’s house with a friend who lived right across the street from me, one lane traffic, suburbs, and I just walked across the street looking around for the evil dead coming at me.
