ASH VS. EVIL DEAD: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION

SEASON ONE: “With Ash Vs. Evil Dead, the horror franchise returns in a big way. The 10 episodes expand the series’ horizons well and provide a lot of gory entertainment.”

SEASON TWO: “Though not quite as delightful as the prior year, Season Two of Ash Vs. Evil Dead still musters a giddily gory combination of action, horror and comedy. Led by the inimitable Bruce Campbell, S2 chugs along well.”

SEASON THREE: “As it stands, Season Three of Ash vs. Evil Dead appears to be its last. That’s a shame, as the series kept up a high level of quality and turned S3 into another winner.”

The Bonus Disc:

Back in 1992, Army of Darkness represented the third – and final – of the Evil Dead movies. The franchise got a 2013 reboot but it looked like the original cast would never revisit the characters.

In 2015, the series came back to life via the Starz Channel’s Ash vs. Evil Dead, a show that brought back Bruce Campbell as lead monster-fighter Ash Williams. Though fans loved it, I guess it didn’t get great ratings, as it only lasted three seasons.

Oh well – at least it died young and left an attractive corpse. Inevitably the shows came with some ups and downs, but Ash usually brought us a fun, crazy mix of comedy and gory action.

This “Complete Collection” packages all 30 of Ash vs. Evil Dead’s episodes. It literally replicates the previously-released Blu-rays, so nothing new appears, but it becomes an efficient way to own the whole series in one fell swoop.
