Cast make the most of 'Evil Dead' script

In 1981, Sam Raimi re-invigorated the horror genre with 'The Evil Dead', an overtly camp, low-budget journey of terror in the company of five university students who encounter malevolent forces in the Tennessee Hills.

The film’s giddy mix of black humour and extreme violence, including an infamous scene of a girl being sexually assaulted by a tree, bestowed cult status on Raimi’s twisted vision.
