Ash vs Evil Dead delivers a satisfying enough finale for season one, but with a little bit too much filler and not much of coherence.
It all starts with the Dark One taking Pedro... Pablo, downstairs, and Ash going too trying to save him, while Kelly and fodder-camper stay upstairs. From here we have Ash playing in the dark while Kelly and Heather try to survive against the house.
The episode offers more than enough action, but it wanders too much. Ash stays a couple of minutes doing nothing in the dark, and the Dark One's offer part in Ash's head could had been faster and better. Also, upstairs, there's too much shouting and running at nothing, and when we started caring a little bit for I-just-can-shout Heather, there goes the show and kills her. Good enough than no one seems safe, but it is starting to seem that Kelly and Pablo are in Ash-safe-zone and everyone else's out, which is not good for the tension. The two women upstairs were actually making a good team, and after introducing Heather, as before Amanda, it seems a little bit too casual the way they are disposed.
The last part, with the fight, underwhelms a little bit. The dialogue is OK, but how Ash gets the knife and everything... Well, they just seem to be stretching it.
Talking about this. The end of the season puts everything for Ash and the Team vs Deadite in the Apocalypse. Which sounds good enough, but, at the same time, seen and done before. I can even picture the start of season 2, with Ash at Jacksonville taking the sun and with a girl at his side, which suddenly becomes a deadite. Let's hope it's not like this.
