Featured review
I re-watched the Pilot after The Season 2 Finale
So, waiting for the beginning of Season 3 I decide to write a technical review of the Pilot of the Series. It will be short and divided by categories.
DIRECTION It's pure Raimi at his best. Long sequences, slow motions, action, suspense and dosed humor. In the next 19 episodes rarely this timing has been respected (also because this Pilot is 40 minutes and episodes are 25-30 minutes).
SFX The only bad point of the Pilot are the special effects. The Post production work doesn't fit well and make the intense Fisher/Carson scene so lame. A cheaper and hasty work, but just for this episode because next episodes are truly better (just for example in 1x03 The Host). So AVED is a series that have both bad and good special effects at the same time. And this is wonderful
PLOT and PLOT EVOLUTION In this pilot Ash is serious, Ash is scared about what he avoid for 30 years. And at the same time he laugh and act to show that he can handle it.
The evil dead speaks to the characters has it know their victims creating a shadow of mystery behind what evil wants.
The Catchphrase "We know who you are" scared a lot and also the other things form the other Deadites. These demons know a mystery and the real origins of everyone fears. They scares people not with blood or bad words, but because they knew them.
During the series we didn't see the evolution of the Evil, because of a lazy scripts that prefers jokes to expand the mythology behind the book.
IN CONCLUSION This Pilot is what every pilots need to have.. and much more. I don't know why Raimi don't make at least an episode per season. Because the directors of the series (that are also into it and extremely masters) need to breathe more and focus on what this series can unleashed in history of television. Hope that the new Showrunner is better than DiGregorio that he just forgot what to do as Showrunner. Maybe he just needed to re-watch the Pilot overtime before wrote a new episode.
