Summary: My New Companion
Comment: From Hulka.com

Man this book is GREAT! It's a book I wanted to write, and when I heard Bill Warren was writing it, I gave up the idea hoping he wouldn't let me down, and he didn't. He surpassed my expectations! There's so much inside info in this book that you can't find on the net, straight from the horses mouths! Those horses being Sam Raimi, Ted Raimi and Bruce Campbell. Photos from the films Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness that have never been seen outside the small circle that took them. Great book, I've enjoyed what I've read so far, and I would recommend this sucker be on every aspiring film makers table!

This book has limited distribution, so order from Amazon like I did to ensure you get a copy now!

Summary: Decent companion, but somewhat lacking
Comment: Like other reviewers for this book, I too am a huge fan of the Evil Dead series. That is why I found 'The Evil Dead Companion' somewhat disappointing, and not worthy of 5 stars at all. Out of all the movies in the trilogy, the author decides to focus mostly on the first film. Granted this is an interesting period in the film-makers lives, I would have preferred just as much in depth coverage into the other two films, 'Evil Dead 2' and 'Army of Darkness'. Unfortunately, they play a small part in the book. The stories of Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert and Bruce Campbell before the films came out are very funny and interesting, and do make up for the lack of other info. Also, the sparse photo's in the book (I really wish there was more) are all black and white, and with a film like this full colour ones would have done far more justice to the films.

Summary: Your Evil Dead Source
Comment: As a fan of the Evil Dead movies, I felt like I had to buy this book.. because it's the only Evil Dead Trilogy source I knew of..
Unfortunately, the book is all black and white, no colored pictures except for the cover and back cover.
The book is focused on the first film (which is, in my opinion, the best), but it covers the other ones too.. Unfortunately, I think an awesome trilogy like Evil Dead diserved a better book, with colored pictures and this kind of stuff... The pros are basically that it's the only Evil Dead Movies-only book in here; the cons are mainly because of the black-and-white-only pictures, and because almost half of this book is a transcription of the crew's comments for the movies (which are taken from the serie's DVDs), and this is a waste..
But, as Evil Dead fans, I think we should all buy it...
