RETURN OF THE EVIL DEAD



HAVE THEY HEARD YOUR HEART BEATING?
In this second startling film in the BLIND DEAD series, writer/director Amando de Ossorio returns to the horrific origin of the depraved Templar: heretic knights whose eyes were burned out by medieval vigilantes to prevent them from finding their way back from Hell. Now on the 500th anniversary of their execution, the blind horsemen rise from their tombs to wreak bloody revenge on the town that condemned them. Tony Kendall (WHEN THE SCREAMING STOPS), Frank Brana (PIECES) and Lone Fleming (TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD) star in this chilling sequel that rocked the EuroHorror genre!

This Definitive Edition of RETURN OF THE EVIL DEAD contains both the original English Version and the uncensored Spanish Version, both fully restored from original vault materials and remastered in heart-stopping High Definition.

"MORE BRUTAL AND BLOODTHIRSTY THAN THE FIRST ONE... Some Of The Most Effective Monsters Ever Put On Film!"
-SciFilm


The remote Spanish town is celebrating the 500th anniversary of the death by auto de fe of the Knights Templar. Its quite a party! fireworks! booze! dancing! whoo hoo! everyones having a blast until, yes, until the EVIL DEAD Templars come rampaging thru the town on a quest for revenge to slake thier never ending quest for blood and mayhem! A small mismatched group of survivors of the initial slaughter end up barricaded in the town church, where amidst the, what you would think is the all consuming problem of how to escape the hell-spawn zombie knights, a bitter love triangle further separates our forlorn heros as they struggle to survive swords wielded by the uncaring dead, and each other!
A legendary film, from a legendary series dubbed "The Blind Dead" this movie is fun for the whole family, if that family happens to all be purveyors of gore and mayhem.
I am working my way with relish through the whoe series, enjoying everyomoment thus far of this milestone of the zombie horror genre. The snazzy box set comes in a coffin! And Trust me, thats quite the conversation piece amog all the guests to my home as it sits proudly atop the dvd rack. Something about the shambling of the knights is extremely disquieting, as oposed to the hell bent for leather fast as hell zombies so common in the films being made today. Shambling sword wielding dead guys, villiage idiots, hunky experts from out of town, and depraved towns women all come together in this vintage masterpiece of horror. enjoy!
