The ARMY OF DARKNESS Quote-Along

Rated R; Director:Sam Raimi

Location: Alamo Downtown

STAR WARS got us to play with Kenner toys when we were kids, and that set the stage. MONTY PYTHON taught us to enjoy irreverent humor, and soon there was no going back. DAWN OF THE DEAD showed us how awesome gore effects could be, and we were no longer satisfied with the standard Hollywood fare. But for a growing number of us, ARMY OF DARKNESS is where geekiness turned into full blown fan boy obsession. The world at large might think of Sam Raimi as the director of SPIDERMAN, but the world at large is obviously full of idiots, because it’s ridiculous that Tom Cruise is a big movie star and Bruce Campbell still has to fight for roles on syndicated cable shows. Bruce Campbell is the greatest talent to ever grace the silver screen, Sam Raimi is EVIL DEAD, and EVIL DEAD is ARMY OF DARKNESS.

Remember how fun it was when you first tried to explain the concept of the EVIL DEAD trilogy to your unsuspecting “friends”? “Well, see, there’s this guy who goes to a cabin a couple of times, and then his friends or girlfriend gets possessed by demons and he has to fight them, so he chops off his hand (oh, it had gone bad, so it’s okay), and then he puts a chainsaw on the stump and he holds a shotgun in the other hand and then he goes back in time to the Middle Ages where he has to fight an entire army of the undead. And the whole time he says all the coolest one-liners ever.”

Well, your so-called friends may have looked at you with blank stares, but this Quote-Along show will be your mecca. When I sit back and imagine an entire theater full of fellow fanboys all yelling out “This... is my BOOMSTICK!” together, I get goosebumps. I just don’t understand why it took us so long to put this show together. (Henri)
