The first two don’t have the same production value as Army, but they have their charms. The budget grew progressively larger for the three films, so the effects get less over-the-top bad as the trilogy progresses. Evil Dead II is pretty much a remake of I. While they’re both corny, two embraces its B-movieness a little more than the first one does. If you are a huge Sam Raimi and Bruce Cambpell fan, rent them both so you can have street cred for seeing the whole trilogy. If you enjoyed playing the home game of MST3K, get Evil Dead II.
