Army of Darkness

[Widescreen]

OK, so I've seen parts of this movie several times - most recently last night. Every time I watch it it seems like I'm watching a big steaming pile of poo. I like Bruce Campbell because he plays likeable characters and doesn't take himself seriously, but I can't figure out why people think this movie is so great. I assume it's because it's so bad it's good although I can't see that either. To me it's just bad. It looks like it was done by a couple of 15 year olds. Help me out here.

because it's so bad it's good
Exactly.
Classic movie quotes, baby.

I think it's just a classic film that, like Campbell, doesn't take itself too seriously.

When you compare it to Evil Dead 1 & 2 it is a masterpeice. ;)

I really enjoy it and I cannot explain why.

Ah, that was just pillow-talk baby.

I will admit that saying "Give me some sugar, baby" to a medieval chick was funny.

Ok you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my boomstick! The 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that?

Cult classic that plays on the B horror genre with an awesome dose of campiness, slapstick and plain ol' funny a$$ sh!t.

What's not to like?
