How did this movie not get an X rating!?
Especially back then!? Scarface came very close and it wasn't nearly as violent or gory by comparison!
shareMost of the blood was alien blood rather than human e.g. the yellow and green fluids coming out of Norris.
shareShit! Eso me recuerda! Remember the guy who made Toxic Avenger!? He was interviewed years ago by the AVGN and said the reason his movies were able to get away with a lot of stuff under an R rating was because of the greenish blood that you mentioned. Same way how "Revengage" got away with an M rating, instead of 18+. Because all the blood and gore from the cybernetic enemies you vanquish in the game is suppose to be "oil". Megan Man did the same thing but to an exponentially lesser extent.
You ever seen Super Show!? The one with Captain Lou Albano? There's this one episode where the Mario brothers pay a visit to mushroom kingdom's version of Transylvania. They are greeted by count Koopa and has his minions chase theme around in his castle. There's this one scene where a "werekooppa" troopa (I just made that word up) is standing right in front of them, drenched in blood. But wait! It's not really blood. It's supposed to be meat sauce from a spilled bottle that somehow managed to cover his entire body. Nevermind the fact that the texture between blood and meat are not even the same! In any case! Toad then proceeds to pick up that aforementioned bottle and hits him over the head with it (knocking him out in the process). Afterwards, he says "naughty turtle! You've been hitting the sauce again. So yeah! They knew exactly what they were implying π
It was the same thing with Evil Dead II.
shareTo be further honest with you, brah! I only saw EDII once and I don't recall most of the movie outside of that overweight shotgun wielding hillbilly that was constantly screaming out for his cousin.
"Billy Joe!" π
My friends were always on my case for preferring the first one over subsequent installments. I never saw the remake! Is it any good!? Did they at least go back to their horror roots!? Was never a big fan of horror comedy. Think Vampire In Brooklyn would be the only exception. Don't know if I can get away with repeating some of the lines here.
But that movie was funny as hell π
I didn't like the Evil Dead remake. It was like watching the Thing prequel. I would rather have watched an Evil Dead and Thing crossover - how you kill a possessed person (fire) is opposite to how you kill the other (dismemberment).
shareYeah! Everyone says the remake of the remake was underwhelming and unnecessary.
