The most disturbing things about deadites is how they possessed people. Like after being possessed, their eyes would roll up and their skin starts to deteriorate with decay and accelerated aging the longer the possession is.
Another thing is what happens to the soul during possession? I can imagine Cheryl's, Linda's, Scotty's, and Shelly's souls screaming in fear and agony as the deadite inside their bodies started eating them from the inside while they are forced to watch their former selves attack Ash. But I think Ash might have freed their souls after killing the deadites in the end. Though he would have saved his friends, girlfriend and sister, if he would have find the way to exorcise them.
Evil Dead Rises led me to believe the victims are not aware of what's happening, or they are too preoccupied to care
@theJukeboxHero40 what makes you think that?
Ash is so used to seeing them and killing them that it’s now just a chore for him
454 SS that because he eats danger for dinner and evil for breakfast
One Punch Ash anyone?
Part of the charm lol
Mom: Okay honey, do your chores?
Son: Got it mom (grabs chainsaw)
*groovy*
I misread it as Kardashian Deadites and it still made sense
same. Makes more sense as Kardashians though.....
Hi ted
😂 excellent. That comment made my day
its there ancient ancestors thats why the new necronomicon is in the form of a show keeping up with the Kardashians
That’s even worse!!
"SWALLOW YOUR SOUL SWALLOW YOUR SOUL" "Swallow this" 10/10 line.
Best pick up line ever
By the way this is a joke I’m not some kind of rap !st
“I’ll swallow your soul, I’ll swallow your soul!” “Give me some sugar!” Just a couple of my favorite lines! I loved these movies! Not a big fan of the remake, accept for the very end. This video was “Groovy!”
Thanks champ!
Logan Waltz hahahahahaha!
Yeah, the remake is rubbish. The TV show is fantastic, though.
sentinelmoonfang I wholeheartedly concur!
Don't forget 'Hail to the king, baby'.
When I was a kid, I happened upon a relative of mine watching this film and I was so gripped by it I finished the entire thing (Even if I never wanted to). That night I was NOT able to sleep as I keep seeing all those horrors whenever I close my eyes
TheDecepticondude Dude you ain’t lying, I remember watching this movie by myself at home alone on the living room tv when I was 12 or 13yrs old and by the time the movie was over I couldn’t turn the tv off or the lights on because I was so scared to move under my blanket....I eventually fell asleep with the tv on, but what’s so amazing about this movie I love is the music and atmosphere that keeps spooked and frightened which is pretty good for movie made on a low budget back in 1981.......there’s not many horror movies today that captures the music and atmospheric tempo the way this film did which is why it’s a classic to this day, the reboot film in 2013 was crap the 1981 original will always be the best version.
i was in shock as a child how violent and realistic to me it seemed, how i felt the bitch in the basement was real...the thing in the woods from the first person view was out there on its way to me....this and aliens had me scared as a kid
Evil Dead 2 started to take a comedic turn and when Army of Darkness came out it had more funny parts than horror elements
Yeah that’s why I don’t like Army of Darkness. It’s a mockery of the first movie. That’s why I like the 2013 remake.
I love AOD.
That movie was so hilarious
@Bill Kennedy
I just saw it and yes it definitely did. Raimi and Campbell were producers😊
@Insultedyeti712 💅
@Insultedyeti712or how about this… every evils dead movie is good
While it’s origins have yet to be fully revealed, I believe the Kandarian Dagger was fashioned by humans, in order to combat the Dark Ones & Deadites, considering the Dark Ones had enslaved the humans thousands of years ago.
Hence why, in Ash vs. Evil Dead, the Kandarian dagger plays such a large roll, as it’s one of the only known ways to kill Ruby, who is a Dark One.
The Evil Dead. The first VHS tape me and my mom ever rented in 1985. I was 11 and I loved it. I have been in to horror films ever since.
I enjoyed the reboot on Netflix, it was nice to see him reprise his role after so many years. Still had the same dark humor and wit. It was cool to get a more in depth explanation of the deadites too, thanks for this!
It wasn't Netflix it was on Starz
That's why we didint vet to ginish the series with him in the future show got canceled caus emo one watches Starz
It’s not a re boot
It isn't a reboot it was a continuation
I have wanted some proper lore background on the Deadites for an age. Thank you so much for this.
no worries mate!
I absolutely *love* the Evil Dead franchise, including the television series. I was so sad when it was cancelled.
Me to brother 😢

Do a video about bloodeborne. It's infection is really intriguing.
Sure mate, i'll add it to the list, thanks :)
That'd be cool as hell

I look forward to these videos so much. Keep em coming!
The remake baffles me, the idiot starts reading a book he found in a creepy cabin cellar filled with dead cats, wrapped in a garbage bag, and barbed wire. While it also has don't read me written in blood on it 😂
Isn't the remake supposed to be somewhat satirical of modern horror movie tropes? For the example you provided, it could be a reference to how no matter how ominous or threatening something appears to be, no one heeds the warning signs in horror movies. Despite how blatantly obvious they may be.
I could be entirely wrong too...
I mean, Sam Raimi was in charge of the remake too, so it's kinda like how he would've done the movie had he the big Hollywood budget
I don't actually think that it's nearly as dumb as what happens in the original.
The original has an archaeologist who knows the following things:
- the book is bound in human flesh
- the book is written in human blood
- that it's about demons, demon resurrections, and forces that roam the forest
- that the forces mentioned in the book lie dormant but never dead
- that reading the incantations would give them permission to possess humans
And then he reads the book.
Now, he has no actual reason to believe that the book is legitimate. But he has far more knowledge about the book than the character in the remake.
The remake has a teacher who reads a book that says "don't read this book". He has no idea what the book is. It could be an elaborate prank made by some teenagers who practice some witchcraft. Not only that, but he's then the first one to figure out what's happening, and the first one to actively try to stop it. Of course he made the error of reading the book, so he has to pay for that which is the reason why the man goes through the comical amount of punishment he does.
I'm just saying. If the remake baffles you, the original should really baffle you as well.
Curiosity killed the cat.
I'll see myself out.
Rik S satisfaction brought it back huugghh
Person: I found a weird book I probably should read it
Demons: I’m about to end this man career
Ash Williams: Yee haw chucklefucks.
The kandarian demons are very disturbing to me. The idea of a demon that you cannot fight or exorcise taking over my body and turning me into a monster is just terrifying to me.
"This is my Boom Stick"
Gotta love the third in the series 'the Army of Darkness'
Was one of the films I used to love watching stoned, haven't seen it in years.
Keep up the good work mate.
People *still* believe deadites to be zombies??
I just binged the tv series and not once has the word "zombie" ever been mentioned!
They're constantly referred to as deadites and demons!
The deadites are demonic zombies though. The kandarian demon Is a spirit but it possesses people and turns them into zombies.
The deadites are demon possessed zombies as opposed to infected ones. They have much more malice and intelligence than regular zombies and eat souls instead of eating flesh.
I was always fascinated by the dark ones and what exactly they wrote in the book. I would love to see a movie centered on them.
Can you do the blacklight virus. Also called the mercer virus from prototype?
Up vote this everybody
Damn prototype was a good game!
Redlight, not mercer.
Vita mortis careo ive always wanted to play it and finally gathered enough money for the 1st game (i dont like to miss out on story) and it.... CRASHED because it wasnt compatible with windows 10 because its old :(
Once you get into prototype, there's plenty of different videos he can make not only on the Mercer virus but various creatures like Goliaths, juggernauts, brawlers, the infected lair, and so much more
Great video today, mate. Evil dead is among the greatest films ever made.
I think it would be neat if you could do a focus on “total recall” the 1990’s version. It’s a classic. Thanks my man.
your analysis are among the most detailed and well-produced videos on CZcams, Please keep it up!
"Good... Bad... I'm the guy with the gun." - Army of Darkness
"This is my BOOMSTICK!!"
I absolutely LOVE The Evil Dead Trilogy and the Ash vs Evil Dead show (Don’t care about seeing the 2013 remake because I don’t care about it) but I gotta say the first film is my favorite as it’s the one that kicked off this amazingly goofy and gory franchise
It wasn’t a bad remake, they definitely did their own thing without taking everything from the original. And honestly it was pretty good as it’s own little movie.
It's a really good remake and trying to be some sort of elitist is weird since it seems like you like evil dead a lot too, I'd say give the movie a try.
The Evil Dead franchise might be the most consistent horror franchise in years
Wow. - "Long before the creation of the book, it's explained that the Kardashians were a living evil". I didn't realise that the Kardashians had been around that long.
I got to meet Bruce Campbell at a convention in New Orleans. Signed copy's of all the Evil dead movies. Good times.
the deadites are particularly interesting I think, could you maybe cover some of the Cthulhu mythos monsters and gods? great vid man, thanks a lot
Nice video. A video idea could be looking more into Kandarian and chosen one rivalry.
first time reading the title i read: "the kardashians explained".
i don't know what's wrong with me...
NoComment Gaming there is no explaining those people
Ain't that the truth!
No no no... But they do use the Kardashian dagger to kill the deadites.
They do look very similar. I don't mean the words, i mean their apperance.
That’s even more terrifying!
I love the Evil Dead movies.
Bruce Campbell played an excellent character as Ash
Deadites are so much more interesting and scary than zombies imo.
Deadites are both scary and comedians
Deadlites are like a mixture of both Zombies and Demons. They are both spirits that if u contact, then you’ll become a deadlite ur self
If you have not done it yet you could do walkers from the walking dead and if you have , you could do the zombieish things from resident evil 7
Great suggestions pablo! I'l ladd em to the list, thank you :)
Can u do a dawn of the dead(2004) explored
yes mate its on the list, thanks :)
FilmComicsExplained bro your list is longer than Ash' kill streak by now!
The Zombies there are pretty smart they can feel fire
What's to explore about dawn of the dead? Not a lot of stones left un-turned there. Do the cause and origins of the virus in World War Z, that covers every modern, realistic zombie movie. But you should actually cover the cause of the outbreak in Cockneys vs. Zombies! Explain that tomb where the infected were released from. Love that movie.
I love the game series. I used to play it every 2 in the morning to feel the thrill
"This... is my BOOM STICK!"
My All Time favourite movie , when I grow up I want to be like Ash , shop smart shop s-mart .
Literally one of the scariest movies.
Please do the flare virus from Maze runner scorch trials
That Dead Space background music though, not complaining, it's just that it fits.
Could you explore Jekyll and Hyde (mainly Hyde and what exactly is he) I think that could make a really cool video as I dont think you have explored many characters like that
Ive been binge watching all the movies then got done with season one of the show fucking masterpieces
the show truely is one of the few times a series spins off a movie and isn't a watered down disappointing mess.. again and again it pushes the lines to what a show can get away with while maintaining the horror and humor elements that have become staples of the series. I especially love how they handled movie 3 durring the period of time it was questionable if they could reference it in the show and how they finally did handle it season 2. The only thing that could make the transistion more complete would be if they have Ash at some place recount when the S Mart was bought out by Value Stop
Fun fact the first evil dead movie production started in 1979 then was put on hold till they got more funds then production restarted and released in 81
This is my *boomstick*!
Thank you for covering one of my very favorite series.
Groovy! Where is Ash when you need him. The riots would have been a lot shorter.
Could have mentioned Jason Voorhees as he was confirmed to be a deadite as well.
Jacob Rivera really?
Jason was resurrected using the necronomicon, it was mentioned in the comics I think.
Yeah, because a director of a bad movie THINK that.
I like how stupid fanboys can say "it was confirmed" when it wasn't.
Michael Voorhees, what IS confirmed... you are a dork.
Duality OMK The director said that it was his opinion. Of course is his opinion, he is not the creator of Jason or Evil Dead. You know what was confirmed? That Jason Voorhees was fiction in the Evil Dead Universe with Ash vs Evil Dead, after they cancelled Freddy vs Jason vs Ash cause Sam Raimi.
You are stupid as fuck xD
*THIS IS MY BOOM STICK!*
That pencil stab still gets me
I just learn more and more random facts from movies and video games. Love it man!
I was thrilled when Netflix came out with the Ash vs Evil Dead series, but it sucks after 3 grotesque, hilarious seasons, there won't be anymore.
Netflix didnt come up with it, if they had it might have lasted another season. It was made by showtime and no one pays to watch that network anymore.
You should totally do something Lovecraftian, like the main pantheon that interacted with mortals, such as a video on Cthulhu, Nyarlethotep, or the puppet-master(admittedly weaker than the previous two by far) himself, Hastur. They each had their own, inhuman following, with Cthulhu's being the most physically enhanced and dangerous. Or, if you need entities in the plural, you could do the Yith and the Fungi of yoggoth(but it's like Lovecraft fans silmarillion. Lots of content. Hard to read for a non-Lovecraft fan.) Considering the Yith threaten humanity greatly after Nathaniel Peasly revealed us to them in 'Shadow out of Time". I love your content man and I'm a huge Lovecraft junkie as you can see. Considering Lovecraft is the grandfather of horror and created cosmic horror, plus any form of horror can be plausibly fan led back to something lovecraftian(That's just how far-reaching and profound his works are, despite being more obscure than poe) I figured your channel would benefit immensely from having something Lovecraft on here.
P.S. The Evil Dead monsters and Lore were heavily influenced by Lovecraft. In the Mythos, the necronomicon was a book written by a man named Abdul Al-Hazred who was a servant of Hastur. Hastur told him the secrets of the cosmos and his realm, filling it with powerful incantations, spells, and most dangerous, names. Names have power. Actually, you meet a 'Dark One' in the story 'Dreams in the Witch house' where a dark one ambiguously named 'The Black Man' possesses a book conveniently titled 'The black book'. It possesses far more powerful spells and incantations than those of the necronomicon and has the names of far more powerful demons to summon and bend to his will. The majority of the book however is human names. Any name written within, their soul is bound to the book and him. So he wasn't trying to hold back the demons like in the Evil Dead, he controlled them. Demons are the weakest and most servile outer and abyssal race in the Mythos, despite being horrifyingly more powerful than humans.
Peace man, please at least consider my suggestion.
X-)
Yeah it was my first impression that the Necronomicon was linked to Hell. But no, it's a dimension or plane of existence where if you saw it, you'd think he'll is a better fate.
I would have loved this movie had it not been for the comedy mixture.
Great video! ❤
These zombie virus related videos are the best, keep up the good work!
Except deadites aren't zombies!
Good video!!! I remember when I saw this movie for the very first time in 1982. Rented it from the local video store. Watched it at night with the lights turned off. Though this movie is quite hilarious - scared the doggie-doo out of me!!! Would NOT sleep with the lights off for about 3 months afterwards!!! DEAD BY DAWN!!! DEAD BY DAWN!!!
Damn I love me some old school evil dead
He says it wrong every time. Kon-dar-ee-in. He sounds like he mixed it with Kardashian.
this is a very honest and entertaining approach to the evil dead subject
“Over the top”? That’s an understatement!!
The first evil dead is made in 1978/79 it was released in 1981.
Omg I was really wanting u to do this one. Thank you!
Love the Evil Dead so glad you made this video!
I love the dead space music! One of the best horror games I’ve played.
Can you do a Video on the Jurassic Park 3 Spinosaurs it has super interesting lore not many people know off :)
Is that the one they fight at the end with the big red fin on it's back that swims underwater? That was one of my favourites.
Mr. Shadow that is correct Spinosaurus Egypticus
Thanks :)
Mr Mason I can tell you right here but that might spoil the video haha
Its_Me_Romano _ i
Ash is not only the chose one, he is...El Jefe
I watched a video about the Evil Dead, they were saying that they used live ammunition, due to it being a lot cheaper than fake bullets.
It's *Kandarian* ,but nice work!
Was going to bed, though I guess I can watch this first.
Could you do something on the Technocyte Virus from Warframe? Since you've done video game diseases before, I'm interested in how you'd explain the functions of the disease and you thoughts on it.
Yes mate its on the list :)
Nice. :D
Love the video man. Keep up the great work!
I just recently found your channel an i honestly havent seen another like it an its quickly became one of my favorite channels... I honestly didnt even know there were film comics lol, but tbh these are great man keep the great videos coming an thankyou for showing me new worlds i never would of found myself if i had to actually read myself lol
who's here after watching the trailer for Evil Dead: Rise
That last clip is going to be forever epic.
1st time i see this i was 5 yrs. I loved it then and i love it now
Please do Corrupted Blood incident in world of warcraft! This is something that was big and tbh strange.
*Holy crap! I haven't watched in awhile...last time I watched, you were at like 300 subscribers...300 or 3,000 can't remember. Did you gain a bunch of subs in the last few months, since you did your ALIEN/PROMETHEUS/AVP FIRE AND STONE videos???*
And this is my BOOM STICK!!!
Can you pleeeease do a virus explained video on Train to Busan?
Olivia Martin yesssss
I just love your videos keep it up
Thanks buddy!
FilmComicsExplained can you do the virus from the children
Though I haven’t watched the evil dead, I’m still intrigued and fascinated by the lore of the deadites.
I’m working on creating creatures/demons that are loosely inspired by the deadites.
The creatures/demons I’m creating are called the cybernetic Deadings.
Who are cosmic horrors that’are made up of various dead human body parts or bio mass and cybernetic parts.
He says groovy and all I can think of is the User from ReBoot in the game that's an obvious homage to Evil Dead. Or at least it's obvious now. As a kid, I didn't get the reference and later thought it was the other way around with Ash referencing ReBoot.
Very interesting! They should continue _Evil Dead_ in Amazon Prime, HBO Max or something, or just make another movie! I feel there's a lot of mythology yet to explore! _Evil Dead_ is so good it could still offer a decent plot, fun and scares...
There’s 3 TV series called Ash vs Evil Dead that’s the sequel to the trilogy set 30 years after Army of Darkness
@@Invalidusername24 I know, that's what I was talking about. _Ash vs. Evil Dead_ wasn't bad, though, but also wasn't all that good either. I hope they make another good movie with Campbell, or without him if it recaptures the spirit of the originals which apparently nowadays even with all this techonology is difficult - or maybe it's just because of it...
The Kandarian Dagger looked so much cooler in The Evil Dead 2.
groovy indeed.
wait a sec, wasnt the book of the dead a book from the HP lovecraft series ( the cathulu mythos ) ?
It's a fictional book within the public domain
Such s good channel! Very well explained glad I subscribed
Now I finally get the joke from Resi7!
This cult classic is a must watch and obvious show piece in any horror movie lovers collection. It is so popular that they sequel movie was quite simply a remake of 5he original and NOT a sequel film. It has all the ingredients of a great horror film that come together to form nightmare fuel of epic proportions. Eventually they made a third film that actually was a sequel, but this third instalment is more of a horror comedy than a nightmare fuel film like the first two movies were.
If you haven’t seen this movie then you are missing out on a great film. If you have seen this film then it is time to watch it again! A solid 8/10 for the first two movies, and a 6/10 for Army of Darkness- the third film.
Enjoying your Chanel today subbed 😎😎😎
If they wanted to keep the Deadites away from the world then why did they write how to summon them in a book ?
Lot more interesting than the crawling zombies.
They are even better than the "28 days later" rage zombies because they seem to possess some intelligence
bruce campbell got way injured on set too various times for the evil dead films... raimi seemed to love filming as real of fear/exhaustion as possible..
Sam Raimi must have seen EQUINOX (1970) as it is an obvious root for the EVIL DEAD
No one can control the kardirian, not even the strongest human. just like the hero of diabolo all who try it will be driven to madness... just look at what happen to poor Kanye 😢
I'd like the puppeteer demon its cool
Can you do a video about Nova 6 from Call of Duty Black Ops?
I'll add it to the list alonzo, thank you :)
Jason Might Be A Deadite As The Directior Said
True
I love the trilogy,the best dark comedy-horror ever...never been a fan of the remake although its quite good on its own.
