The effects for The Evil Dead were created by Tom Sullivan. He'd been friends since college with Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and Rob Tapert. This movie tells the story, including Super 8mm film footage, Hi8, VHS and vintage audio tapes and photographs. Beyond all this behind the scenes footage, you also get location visits and interviews with Campbell, Ted Raimi, Josh Becker, Danny Hicks, Hal Delrich, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker, Theresa Tilly and more.
Beyond his work on that movie, Sullivan also worked on the Call of Cthulu games and shows off plenty of his incredible art. The tours -- what is left of the original cabin, the cellar, the home where everyone lived and the theater where it premiered -- are also really great.
If you're someone who does a deep dive into the people who make the movies look so wild, this is totally for you. You'll learn just how much work went into such an important movie.
The Synapse blu ray release of this movie also has Other Men's Careers, which is about Josh Becker, a vintage Tom Savini interview, two of Ryan Meade's short movies Bong Fly and Cosmos Lovos, extended interviews and new slipcover art by Joel Robinson.
