Need a description of the movie? At the end of Evil Dead 2 we saw our beloved Ash (sans hand but still alive) get sucked into a swirling time-travel vortex that landed him and his Oldsmobile all the way back in 1300 AD. Army of Darkness picks up from this point as Ash becomes a slave-then-hero to the medieval masses as he and his “boomstick” have to, once again, battle the dead. The Necronomicon is back too as the tome that has the power to send Ash back home but it also continues to do what it does best: unearth those pesky dead. Hilarious, gory, and full of comic book-style special effects, Army of Darkness is one of the true delights in horror. Hail to the King!
Tickets are $65 and can be purchased here.
Nitehawk Cinema is located at 136 Metropolitan Avenue in Brooklyn.
