Summary
Three college students go into the woods to film a documentary on the Blair witch. After three days they have to return home but get lost forcing them to continually search for the way home. At night stange occurences frighten the three students.
Review
This seemed more realistic than other horror films and one could easily put themselves in these students places. There was only one scene with blood in this movie however the believeabilty of the moive makes it scary without all of the blood.

Summary
Chucky is brought back to life by his girlfriend Tiffany. For revenge on his girlfriend who locked him in a cage, he attempts to transfer her soul into a doll. To return to his original body, which is buried in a cemetery out of state, he must find an amulet hanging from his corpse. The only way to reach the cemetery is by traveling with a couple running away to get married. Along the way, Tiffany and Chucky kill some people. This is probably the worst of the Child's Play films.
Review
We found this movie to be more humorous than scary, unlike the other three Child's Play films, there was little suspense.

Review
Though there was tons of blood and gore, we thought this movie wasn't very good at all. It went on and on, and we wondered, "When is this going to end?" If your into blood and guts, you might like this movie, but don't get your hopes up.

Review
Horror movies of the nineties have little horror compared to this early eighties film. This is probably one of the best "scary" movies we've seen yet. Has its share of blood/gore scenes.

Summary
Starting off with a short re-write of the first movie, this film begins where the first one ended. Unlike the first Evil Dead, this one contains some humor, although the horror element is still there.
Review
This was not as scary as the first but because of the humor in it, it was still a good movie. The fight between Ash and his hand was classic.

Army of Darkness (Evil Dead 3)
Summary
Set in ancient times, Ash has somehow found his way into a time warp. He must now confront the evil from "The Book of the Dead" while trying to find a way back to the 20th century.
Review
This is the complete opposite from the first Evil Dead. It's a comedy, not a horror film, but is still worth watching.

The girl's comments while possessed are often humorous. Although this movie is old and might not be as scary when it was first released in the early 70's, it is truly a classic.
