Why watch this film?
At the same time a sequel and a remake (or "requel" - a continuation that retells the first) of its predecessor, 'Evil Dead 2' enjoys the same cult classic status among horror fans, even being considered the superior version. In this movie, we follow the almost identical premise: Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell), isolated in a remote cabin in the middle of the forest, must face a horde of demons hungry for human flesh summoned by the Necronomicon. But this time director Sam Raimi opts for a horror comedy, and the result is a fun delirium both in terms of humor and violence. An indispensable classic for genre fans.

Spider-Man 2
The direct sequel to 'Spider-Man', directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire as the titular character. Just like the previous installment, this movie draws heavily from the source material - in this case, "Amazing Spider-Man" Issue #50 with the story arc "Spider-Man No More". The biggest addition here is the villain: Doctor Octopus, played by Alfred Molina, who has multiple layers and a motivation that engages the audience.
Spider-Man
Along with 'Blade' and 'X-Men', the first 'Spider-Man' movie was responsible for starting the superhero craze in theaters. The director responsible for this landmark was Sam Raimi, who brings his aesthetics (recognized in films such as 'Darkman: Face of Vengeance' and 'Crazy Night') to the feature film. The influence of the hero's comic books is also perceptible in various moments, with scenes that practically reproduce passages from comics such as 'Spectacular Spider-Man' #2 and 'Amazing Spider-Man' #122 - although there are some changes and adaptations. The protagonist is played by Tobey Maguire, but the highlight is the villain Norman Osborn, played by Willem Dafoe, besides J. Jonah Jameson by J.K. Simmons. The result is a fun origin film that still entertains the whole family today.
Darkman
After his acclaimed independent production 'Evil Dead', but long before sparking the superhero movie fever with 'Spider-Man', Sam Raimi tried to get the rights to adapt 'Batman' without success. Result: a superhero of his own creation, in a movie that gave Liam Neeson his first role as an action hero. Although it's a product of its time whose age is already notorious, 'Darkman' today enjoys a "cult movie" status, as one of the first and most colorful superhero movies of its time, which even surpasses in wit most spectacular productions of the 2000s and 2010s subgenres.
Spider-Man 3
The third and final part of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy. However, the production was marked by conflicts between the director and Avi Arad, who was the producer. All this is evident in the final result: an excess of villains, lack of focus in the script and a Peter Parker who, besides not evolving as a character, brings us some embarrassing scenes. Still, 'Spider-Man 3' contributes with good action scenes, all with great direction.
The Quick and the Dead
Sam Raimi (director of the 'Spider-Man' trilogy and 'The Evil Dead') builds in 'The Quick and the Dead' a spaghetti western endowed with visual mannerisms, style and dynamism. Incorporating his own style, he subverts a very worn out genre and puts it in new clothing, thus delivering a fun and unique western. The tone that permeates the film is a light suspense, almost cartoonish, which has fun with its resolutions and plays with the expectations of the viewer. It is also interesting to highlight the great cast that makes up the film, which includes young Leonardo DiCaprio and Sharon Stone at the beginning of their careers.
The Evil Dead
The first part of the 'Evil Dead' saga (known here as 'The Evil Dead') is also the debut film of legendary director Sam Raimi, more famously known afterwards for his hugely popular Spider-Man trilogy. Made on a miniscule budget for the time, and though having a tone far removed from what would characterize its two sequels, this first part established the foundations for the rest of the saga: a remote and isolated location, the mysterious Necronomicon, and protagonist Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) as the forced to face brutal demonic possessions. Though not as fun -or iconic- as the second, it enjoys the same cult status as the rest of Raimi's original trilogy, and its success marked the birth of one of the most beloved horror franchises.
Army of Darkness
For the third part of the 'Evil Dead' saga, director Sam Raimi (later more famous for his Spider-Man trilogy) picked up the premise he had originally planned for his second sequel: Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) is sent by the magic of the Necronomicon to the 1300s, where he must face hordes of dead and adventure to find the Necronomicon in the past in order to return to his own time. 'Army of Darkness' has a lighter tone than its acclaimed predecessor, more geared towards adventure comedy than horror, but it's an interesting entry into the mythology of the saga created by Raimi.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
The second solo story of Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness' expands and expands the events seen not only in 'Avengers: Infinity War', 'Avengers: Endgame' and, mainly, 'Spider-Man: Far From Home', but also from the series 'WandaVision', 'Loki' and 'What If...? ', all three from Disney +. In the plot, the titular hero finds America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), a girl with the ability to travel through the multiverse who is pursued by strange (and powerful) monsters. From there, they embark on an adventure through the most different parallel realities of the Marvel heroes. All this wrapped in a feature film that screams Sam Raimi, famous director of the first 'Spider-Man' trilogy and horror films like 'Evil Dead'. Aesthetics, photography, framing and creative choices have the clear signature of the filmmaker, making this one of the best directed films of the MCU. It is the script that is lacking, mainly in relation to the clichés and common places involving the main villain, but all this is balanced by Raimi's touch, Danny Elfman's great soundtrack ('Batman' and 'Spider-Man') and a lot, a lot of fan service. It doesn't quite become a pure amusement park attraction like 'Spider-Man: Far From Home', but the merit of this film is really in knowing how to entertain the fans already catechized by the House of Ideas.
