Ash Vs Evil Dead: Recap and Review, Season 1 Episode 1

Evil Dead is one of my favorite movie series, and I have been pumped for this show for a long time.  Who wouldn't be pumped for Bruce Campbell back in action in one of our favorite horror series?  This episode was absolutely incredible, and it was great to see Campbell back in action as well as some great, and cheesy horror action Evil Dead style.




Recap
I couldn't wait to see Bruce Campbell in action again, and in the beginning of the episode we see
some classic Ash as he walks into a bar, gets a drink and gets laid within a few minutes of walking in the bar.  When he picks up a girl at the bar they have sex in the bathroom and then she appears to turn into a demon.  It could have been Ash's imagination, or it could have also been a message being sent.  He then gets home and decides to leave town after The Necronomican had looked to have been messed with by having a bag of joints in them. We then see a scene with a few cops and some demons, and one of them survived and one of them didn't.  I have a feeling the woman police officer that survived will end up being a huge part of the story line and will meet up with Ash at some point.  Ash goes to work hoping to be able to leave town right away, and his boss won't let him leave with his check until he works the whole day at work. Then we meet Pablo and his hot new friend that started working there that day.  Pablo is Ash's work buddy and we see a lot of him.  You can tell throughout the episode that he looks up to Ash a lot.  When Ash is in the back he gets attacked by a doll that had turned into a demon, and then Pablo saves him.  Ash then takes us back and gives us and Pablo a recap of the whole Evil Dead story.  The new girl then is on skype with her dad and sees her dead mom come in the house as a demon.  She is freaked out then her and Pablo leave.  They meet up with Ash who is getting his trailer attacked by demons.  And we get to see Ash in action with his chainsaw the group then fights together and by the end of the show is safe for a few minutes.



The Marvelous
This show couldn't have picked up more perfect.  We see some classic Ash and Evil Dead to fulfill every craving we have for this show.  It was also nice for people who haven't watched Evil Dead  to get a recap of what they are in for and a little understanding of the Evil Dead Story.  Bruce Campbell is just as good as he was years ago and it was great to see one of my favorite actors back in action.  I also loved Pablos character and think that as a team they will do some great ass kicking together.



The Ugly
I don't have many complaints on this episode.  The buildup and the expectation for this show was set so high and it fulfilled any expectation that I had.  My only complaint would be that I wish the show was a little longer, 40 minutes doesn't seem like enough time to enjoy Bruce Campbell and some of my favorite horror.





Review
I rate this episode a 10 out of 10 I don't think they could have made it any better it was absolutely phenomenal.  I can't wait to see what the rest of this series brings to us, make sure to check out the trailer for tonight's episode.
