All 3 versions Theatrical, International and Director's Cut. Lots of extras.
A great mixture of gorey horror and humor.

If you missed out on the original release of this Blu-ray, fret not, as the steel book contains all three disks that were contained in the original set, as well as includes fantastic artwork and packaging, offer a relatively low price! I could not be more pleased with my purchase, special features create hours of extended value, and the multiple versions of this film provide a collector with the most exhaustive edition of this film to date on home media. This set is loaded with additional features that were not available before hand. Highly recommended!

If you’re a fan of Sam Raimi then you’ll love this movie, he’s a great director! As far as the movie goes, it’s a classic everyone should watch

In 1981, the world was introduced to Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell in the classic film, The Evil Dead. While the film is notorious for it's more and graphic content, the series became known for its slapstick tone along with horror when Evil Dead II was released in 1987, which was carried over to this film in question. This time, the cocktail also has some new ingredients in the form of some Harryhausen-esque effects and a medieval setting, but does it make a good horror movie? At the end of the second film, after Ash has defeated the Evil Dead..... again, a time portal opens up and sucks our titular hero and his car. As soon as he lands in 1300 AD, he is taken prisoner by King Arthur and is marched back to his castle, being suspected as a spy for Arthur's enemy, Duke Henry, who is also captured. He is thrown into a pit, with a Deadite, and eventually able to defeat it with the help of Arthur's right hand man, Merlin. He is celebrated a hero and falls in love with a lovely lass, Sheila. But eager to return back to his time, he is told to retrieve a book called the Necrimonicon Ex-mortis that contains his ticket back. Of course in typical fashion, Ash is followed by an evil force, which manages to create an evil clone of Ash, which he is able to defeat. Upon finding the book, he manages to screw up the retrieval, releasing a dead army and having his love interest kidnapped by the Evil Dead. Will Ash be a hero once more? Will he return home? Will he be able to wisecrack again? If you haven't seen it, you still know the answer is yes to all of the questions. A lot of people kind of think this film is the weakest film in the series, but I look at it from a different point of view. This was my first Evil Dead film, and I still say it's my favorite, but I still can see why people dislike AoD. It is cheesy, and campy and has some cheap effects (It was a low budget film, after all) but that's why I love it. Goofy fun with probably the best B-movie actor ever and teamed with the style of Raimi is just pure gold. This isn't art or even scary; it's just entertainment for entertainment sake and that's all I need. A quick 80-minute film that satisfies everything I want and need.
I've viewed this film many times on various formats, from VHS to Bluray, and this edition is just a revelation to my eyes. The film was never a stunner, but the picture quality is terrific here. The 4k remaster across the 3 versions (There are 4 cuts included, but the TV edition is upscaled standard definition) looks magnificent, retaining the grain and the colors being accurate and lovely. The sound track (5.1 & 2.0 DTS-HD tracks are included) also sound terrific, only held back from it's source. But the only thing better than terrific specs, it's the massive amount of extras, spread over 3 discs. Disc 1 holds the Theatrical Cut, and it also holds the feature length making-of documentary, deleted scenes and marketing materials. Disc 2 holds the Director's Cut, the amusing commentary with the Raimi brothers and star Bruce Campbell, 5-minutes of on-set footage, "Creating the Deadites" featurette which is from the largely abysmal Screwhead edition from a few years prior, and more interviews and BTS stuff. Disc 3 contains the International Cut and the TV Cut, a 20-minute look at the VFX and various photos and storyboards to finish out the great extras. The steelbook art is beautiful and looks great on the shelf. All in all, it's a great set with many hours of cuts and extras to explore and for less than $20, it's an absolute steal!

If you're reading reviews for this movie, you're not interested in hearing about the film. You've seen the movie, and you've likely seen the three other versions included in this three-disc set. No, you're here to get a fan's opinion on the supplemental features. Well, to answer your question, you won't be disappointed. The Criterion Collection raised the stakes for special features on their releases and fortunately for fans of movies that aren't so serious, several boutique companies have followed suit and started jam-packing our favorite films with archival-worthy features. As I stated before, there are FOUR version of the film, which you've no doubt already seen, but the pride and joy is the director's cut on blu ray for the first time. There are also new interviews with Bruce Campbell and a slew of other goodies ready to prepare you for a Deadite invasion in your home theater. Overall, highly recommended as the definitive release for Army of Darkness. Now go give Ash some sugar, baby.

I knew for years that there were many versions of this movie made and released over the years but I was happy with my Anchor Bay Special Edition and planned to stick with it. Well, that was before I learned that none of the previous releases were from Master Prints and that the TV version included some extended scenes as well. Learning that this new Blu-Ray release did included 1 version from scans of the Master (The International Cut) as well as the fact that it also includes a copy of the TV version was enough to get me to open my wallet once again and I'm glad I did. The Windmill Scene in the TV version is awesome and should have stayed in all versions of the film. Anyways, I would certainly recommend this 3 Disc Collector's Blu-Ray edition to any serious fan of the film. I only wish Best Buy would pack their shipments better as once again I received a smashed up case and it's a special case that can't easily be replaced. If possible, get your copy at a store location and do not rely on the postal service as Best Buy's packing for shipments leaves a lot to be desired.
