Yes, 5 friends spending a night in a secluded cabin in the middle of the forest with little lighting is unsettling, but with Raimi's amateur directing style, it's horrifying. With The Evil Dead, the one-setting and minimalistic story actually adds to the film and makes it all the more terrifying. Most of the time the lack of sufficient funds to edit horror pictures make the end product a lot less re-watchable. Sometimes it's hard for myself to go back and watch horror films from decades ago, especially those with a smaller budget. Director Sam Raimi and the small cast made one of the most intense and original films to date.
Perhaps no horror film in history has a bigger cult following than The Evil Dead, and rightfully so. It's always fun to go back and watch films with a mass-cult following.
