Originally shot in 16mm, The Evil Dead (1981) is the low-budget horror movie that roared across cinema screens and changed the speed of fear forever, and made a cult legend out of Bruce Campbell in his iconic role as the lethal, wisecracking character Ash.
Telling the tale of a group of friends who while at a cabin in the woods, encounter an unspeakable evil upon discovering the Book of the Dead - one by one, this terrifying evil takes hold, as it falls to Ash to battle evil spirits and possessed friends in order to survive the night.
Spawning sequels, comic books, videogames and a TV series, the original Evil Dead film from director Sam Raimi is one of horror cinema's most iconic titles.
A cult movie favourite - and at one time banned in the UK during the "video nasties" saga of the 1980s - The Evil Dead is an imaginative and unique horror film that more than lives up to its name.
See this horror classic in its original 16mm format, presented by Reel Steel, this August Bank Holiday weekend.
