Army of Darkness


Army of Darkness finds most of its comedy in Bruce Campbell's one liners. The story follows his character, Ash, who has been sent back from the present along with his car, his chainsaw, and his shotgun. Upon arrival in 1300 AD, his primary concern is getting himself back to the present. There are a few points of dramatic irony in the film. One point comes when Ash is found in 1300 AD and is believed to be on of King Henry the Red's men, while we know that he is from the future.

I would give this film four out of five stars. I thought it was funny, but at times there was a lot of cliche. For instance when Ash got to the book, he forgot the words that he had to say before picking it up. I would recommend this film to another person.
