Скачать или смотреть SAM RAIMI vs THE EVIL BUDGET

"I think it's the same syndrome for all low budget filmmakers. They just don't have the money to do it right, so they've got to... sit down and figure it out..." -Sam Raimi on The Incredibly Strange Film Show, 1988

It's Sam Raimi vs Evil Budget! Making The Evil Dead as a young, first-time filmmaker nearly swallowed Sam Raimi's soul. But despite ups and downs (mostly downs), he, Bruce Campbell, Rob Tapert and the gang persevered and succeeded in creating one of the most iconic horror films and franchises of all cinema, most recently leading to the latest film in the saga, Evil Dead Rise.

The initial budget estimate was $150,000, but the gang had to settle for $85,000 to begin filming. They would have to continue to find more money later, and in the end the film cost $375,000. But the highly effective results speak for themselves... in the immortal words of Ash Williams, "Groovy."
