I just love film.

But there first was a US film titled Brain Dead and it is a doozy in its own right. The only film to have both Bills (Pullman and Paxton)and it was written by Charles (Twilight Zone) Beaumont.

Pretty damn weird to compare 2 VERY different movies, one being straight, serious horror and the other being comedy/horror(and over the top comedy at that). Even weirder since the serious horror flick has a sequel which IS also a comedic horror flick, woulda made FARR more sense to make it a vote involving Evil Dead 2.

Gotta go with Dead Alive, as it is some of the most fun I've ever had watching a movie.

If we were voting strictly on genre, as in which is the better horror movie, Evil Dead HAS t win.

Anyways,

Evil Dead 11
Dead Alive 14

reply

Umm, not sure the last time you watched Evil Dead 2, but it's not a serious horror movie. It's very comedic. I'd watch it again to prove my point.

reply

I'd reread my post again.

reply

I have a feeling the OP meant evil dead in general rather than specifically the first film, because if not you are correct it doesn't make sense. I'm just going to assume that this is evil dead 2 vs dead alive, in which case I have to give it to dead alive. But even evil dead vs dead alive I still think dead live is better. From a moralistic standpoint (I think that horror movies are usually best with some morals) Dead Alive has a bit more to say than either of the evil dead movies, and even though the fear in Dead Alive is more of a "what gross thing am I going to be forced to see next" type, it's still scarier :)

Evil Dead : 15

Dead Alive/Brain Dead : 16

Considering the scare factor alone, Evil Dead was much much much more scarier for me than Dead Alive. Yes, DA was kind of gross (and funny); but never THAT scary (for me). Saw both movies when I was in the 5th grade or something :D and thanks to Evil Dead, I didn't went out after 6 PM for 2-3 months after watching it.

ED was great, but wouldn't be as popular if it weren't made into a trilogy. DA just nailed it for me, as a stand alone picture it didn't leave me wanting anything more than originally presented.

That depends, the Evil Dead series with Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness? In that case then:
Evil Dead 16
Dead Alive 18

If we're just talking the first movie then:
Evil Dead 15
Dead Alive 19

I'd vote The Evil Dead over Braindead any day of the week.
But I'd place Braindead over any of the two Evil Dead sequels.

Besdies The Evil Dead and Braindead are 2 VERY different flicks.
Now Evil Dead II and Braindead is more compareable.

Jesus died for our sins. As he's already dead...sin away.

reply

Depends, even though I found The Evil Dead a better horror film, Braindead entertained me more.

I never liked the first Evil Dead that much. Maybe I need to go back and watch it again.
Evil Dead II on the other hand is awesome.

Braindead is #1.
Terror Firmer is #2.

Evil Dead 2 rules certainly in the top 5

Both are awesome, but Evil Dead 1 is one of my all time favourites, and, I believe, one of the best horrors ever

I have to give it to the movie that has, IMHO, the best line in cinematic history. "I kick ass for the lord!"

If it's been fifteen years or more, it's no longer a spoiler.

I enjoyed 'Dead Alive' for what it is, but 'The Evil Dead' is simply an all-time favorite.

Well that settles it. At 25 votes a piece, they're both equally awesome. I couldn't vote anyways. It'd be like voting which of your children you love the most.
