As always, please support RedLetterMedia through the links in the description, and if you're looking for an editor, collaborator, writer, general product shiller, or just want to reach out and tell me why "Congo" is actually the best Bruce Campbell movie, please do get in touch! Cheers!
why'd it get taken down? I'd recommend doing something to obscure the film footage you're using to avoid it getting struck again? love it just hope it'll survive yknow?
@@WildFungus its up for me.
congos the best movie cause the evil chimps get fuckin cut in half with a giant laser
I was wondering why this disappeared from my history. Really glad you re-uploaded it.
saint
In October I've attended a live commentary with Bruce Campbell for this film and he mentioned why this is a R rated movie...because it has Skeletons....that's it. That's why it's marked with a R rating.
Oh my... no words for the stupid rating people.
Well to be fair they are very realistic
I remember him phrasing it fucking talking skeletons lol
Unacceptable. One day skeletons will throw off the yoke of their fleshy oppressors!
Rated R for spooky scary skeletons
If you hate Army of Darkness, you hate fun. Sure it's not scary in the least. But it's a good time.
This is so much better than the so-so commentary track itself. All those explanatory clips, the additional context, makes this feel like a completely different thing. Really well done.
Ooohhh, I don't know. The funniest thing I ever heard on a commentary track came from that one. Bruce was relating that during one scene he was riding his horse next to a cliff. Someone expressed some concern and Sam Rami said "That's alright. We can get another horse." -- I laughed my ass off.
In the early days of mobile phones I made Ash's "Boomstick" announcement my "leave a message at the beep" default so by the end of him asking "ya got that?" the beep would play. Dorky perfection.
Others may have said it, but I like to think that Ash gets wackier with each movie because he's going more and more insane. So much happens to him that he can't function in normal society anymore, and that's why he's at his coolest when he's killing demons, because it's all he knows now.
My take too. That's pretty much how he is in _Ash vs Evil Dead._
I think Army of Darkness works perfectly as a standalone movie. In fact my friends and I had seen it in the theater 3 times before I even knew it was related to the Evil Dead movies.
I have watched this movie about 486 times, As a kid everytime we went to the video store I got this. I still watch it and laugh everytime. I'd love to thank Bruce and Sam for giving me so much happiness in my life.
"Good, bad - I'm the one with the gun" is from the American VHS and I believe the theatrical release, whereas "I ain't that good" is from the international version.
"good bad I'm the guy with the gun" is so much better of a line. the Chinese jet pilot line was also not in the international version.
You went above and beyond for these highlights. I love the extensive inclusion of supporting clips that provide context, proof, and expansion for the stuff the guys are saying.
The editing of this is spot on
8:10 imho he's not so much getting dumber, it's more that he's slowly losing his mind over the course of the movies. He still has his smart moments.
Saw Bruce recently at a AoD viewing and he said it was due to the notoriety of the Evil Dead films being so gory and vulgar that the review board barely even watched it before deciding fuck you it's getting an R and there's nothing you can do about it.
Rich Evans "Its fine" counter. 🤣
Now I need that in every episode.
Thank you for putting together this video! It is one of my favorite commentary tracks for one of my favorite movies they have done a track for, and adding in clips from movies and interviews that they talk about really adds a lot!
I was watching another channel and saw this pop up on my recommended and immediately pressed play. RLM and Evil Dead? A match made in hell.
You had me at “Babylon 5’s a big pile of shit!” - Spaced 😂
Such a good use of the commentary track, and awesome editing dude. good shit
Rlm di the editing lol this guys just thieving
@@landofthelostzRo shit, have I been absolutely bamboozled?
@@kneebs1 yesm
@@landofthelostzRo uh no RLM just records the audio dude.
@@landofthelostzRo RLM made the audio track (available on Bandcamp, wish they made more), Sam Raimi made Army of Darkness, Banyabat made the video with the edits.
I'm confused as to how you're so confident in your wrongness.
i really need to watch darkman
yes, you do. avoid the sequels
it's cool movie
It’s solid. Definitely worth a watch.
Bruce Campbell is the prerequisite to summoning Jim Carrey into the world.
Fellow Canadian Matt Frewer I believe already has that accolade... (look him up, Max Headroom, etc etc)
No, that would be Jim Varney
And duke nukem. I've heard he's got balls of steel ... sounds painful but okay for him.
The 3 Stooges bit with Bruce making goofy faces in the car looked identical to Jim Carry in Ace Ventura.
That would be Andy Kaufman.
You deserve 179k subscribers, not 17.9k. These are gold. Thanks!
There are actually extra chains around Ash's arm to keep it in the prisoner yoke when you compare it to the other prisoners. He could still take the stump out in real life by the looks of it, but at least the intent was there to make it look like the captors took his severed hand into account.
Rich with his usual terrible taste in movies, calling Army of Darkness the worst
He was kidding.
Who cares
Perfect timing. I look forward to the new joke! Thank you
"Those girls were watching a scene from a horror film"
Your editing is on par or better than RLM! I hope you do more of their commentary tracks. Is there a way to give you a penny or two?
This edit is amazing, I love all the added details and clips - it really heightens the commentary. Also kudos for that George C Scott clip
AoD is one of the BEST movies ever.
Bruce Campbell is a treasure
The entire film is an inside joke, that only _currently existing fans will understrand._ It's actually kinda shocking that they were able to secure a large budget with the freedom of scriptwriting they were allotted.
Ash and his double barrel shotgun that fires an average of 4 to 12 shots, and never needs to be reloaded lol.
My dad went to highschool with Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi. Always fun watching stuff about them.
What high school?
Never stop being you, Rich 😂
Evil Dead 1 is my favorite, it’s so campy, and it honestly scared THE piss out of me.. I had nightmares due to the FX they used to design the demons possessing the victim. Very horrifying look.. but, part 2 is just so enjoyable on another level, it’s not even the same- so far removed from what made ED1 scary.
I agree Evil Dead 1 is the best. Terrifying.
@11:34 Hey Banyabat, that pink elephant sequence in Darkman is Sam Raimi at his over the top best (apart from the helicopter sequence.) They don’t make movies like this anymore and I won’t stand for the disparagement!
Your use of the twin Ash audio during the George C. Scott meme is the funniest thing of all time.
The very first time I saw this movie it was on the Sci Fi channel and I switched to it right as the windmill scene was starting. By the end of the graveyard scene I was like "I have no clue what this movie is but I fucking love it." Didn't find out until way later that it was a sequel to Evil Dead.
The original cut of this movie that was submitted received an NC-17 which is insane.
Evil Dead 2 is my absolute favorite film of the series however despite lack of literal continuity it was an absolute stroke of genius that also serves as a love letter to the prior films, the stooges and the medieval movie tropes of the time. AoD is inferior to ED2 but remains one of my all time favorite films
Army of darkness is actually my favorite in the franchise. My dad showed me wjen i was little. It's always a great watch.
So when I saw the goblet getting crushed by the prosthetic hand (a 'hand' of 'steel' if you will), I though to myself "So that is what happened to David Carradine".
I loved army of darkness it’s ridiculous but so fun
"Oh, it's you, Paul. I'm glad I ran across you." Call me dumb but I like that joke.
“R rating for excessive three stooges gags” 😂
these girls are just great
evil dead is proof flanderization is good
I first saw Bruce Campbell in the TV Series, Hercules: The Legend Continues, he played Autolycus, who pops up occasionally. As master thief helping Hercules. Basically, Bruce Campbell plays Bruce Campbell, he is one of the best reoccurring co-stars. He is also in the TV show called Burn Notice, where he plays this ex-Navy seal, helping the main character. He plays this part great, and again, it's Bruce Campbell being Bruce Campbell. Bruce is just fun to watch. He was great in both these TV Shows.
Funny thing Babylon 5 being brought up. That's another example of doing quite a bit with very little money, just for television instead of film. They started with like 5 sets that they would redress and reshape over and over to be different locations, and whenever they built a new one, they would keep reusing it and finding ways to work it into future stories. Not as stylistic, of course, cause they were going for a grounded approach, but it has a similar creative energy to it.
"Video nasty" such a dystopian, Orwellian term to call any movie you find shocking or distasteful.
On par with any term used in 1984.
Wait, what's new?
Nothing, what's new with you?
Ur mom
@@MartKencuda eh you know living dying that stuff
@@MartKencuda
Anyway, how is your sex life?
Nobody ever mentions it but Ash's introductory speech is wrong. He's not a slave, he a sacrificial victim in part of an ongoing effort to placate the creatures in the pit. The King was (correctly) afraid that if the monsters were sufficiently motivated, they would find their way out. (Like if some asshole from the future...) At the most you could only say Ash is a slave for like, a split-second, because they only plan on giving him one command ("Get in the pit you sons of whores!") This movie is such a pure art.
I hate horror-comedy.
The original Evil Dead is a masterpiece of a film, and the sequel and this abomination besmirched it's good name.
I prefer the re-make/boot whatever that was to both of these sequels.
Yo Banya! What happened with the 1h long one? Why did it get taken down?
32:29 best use of a George C Scott "Hardcore" clip ever!
3 or 4 times in RLM history Jay fails to care that patricia tallman is VERY well known for babylon 5. Shame he didnt love the show.
True; had gory horror movies never happened then stuff like WW1 and WW2 would have never occurred. It was those damn horror movies and violent video games, I tell ya!
I love the alternate ending in Army of darkness when he pronounce the words wrong again and gets sent to another world. Klaatu Berada Nikto.
that was the future
He didn't pronounce the words wrong, he miscounted the amount of drops from a potion that would put him is hibernation until he awoke in his own time. He slept too long and woke up in an apocalyptic future.
I would have never known what this movie was, except my girlfriend dragged me to it. Within a few minutes I was like "OMG!, this is an Evil Dead sequel!"
I love the Japanese title for Army of Darkness, but it always bugged me just a bit because S-Mart is clearly a department store, not a supermarket. I get it though, Captain Department Store doesn't sound as cool.
He was on that TV show burn notice for the longest. My point being is once you're on a prime-time television show your pretty famous. Most people are going to recognize you
Bruce Campbell is Nathan Fillions older bad boy brother
I love the windmill scene and the middle section as much as the rest of the movie.
I love the little Ashes! 😭 When he drinks boiling water to scald the one he swallowed 😂
*This is good shit pal!*
what is that movie with the white hand throwing the silver chainsaw in th air shown @28:10 ?? I'm confused...
The Medival Dead instead became a level in Itchy & Scratchy for SNES.
Bruce Campbell did good in the show Burn Notice
You SOB I almost spit out my drink all over my desk with the push the whopper button hahahahaha
You should’ve showed the "You got something on your face” scene. You know… when he is burying “bad” Ash.
I first heard of video nasties from watching the young ones on MTV
George C Scott killed me near the end. Great addition haha.
At exactly 22:09 rich makes a funny sounds like old woman
The crazy thing is my memory has always been the good bad I'm the guy with the gun despite having the DVD release, prolly haven't watched it on TV since the first time I saw it on tbs or something, is it really 🤔 that other take? Crazy
Right? "I'm not that good" HAS to be the alt version, because I've never seen this on anything other than DVD/VHS/Blu and "I'm the guy with the gun" is burned into my brain as THE line
"...I'm the guy with the gun" is from the US theatrical cut (Not just the TV version like the video says). The "I'm not that good" is from the international version.
@@SpacedCobraIII thank you I went to out it in other day to find out and the damn dvd wasn't in the box so I have to bloody find it now
the original theatrical release in the United States has the im guy with the gun line. it also has the Chinese jet pilot line. both of those lines and several other good lines were changed or just removed in the international version of the movie. I appreciate that the extended version is widely available now in high quality but the US theatrical 81 minute cut is still the best way to watch this movie. its the funniest and most fast paced version.
Thanks for bringing it back man
The production work on this is crazy, great work, makes the commentary 10x better
This was great, I was expecting just ripped audio. The cut always and extra info was great
I do like that Rich Evans is the most handsome of them all. As it should be.
Yeah so it’s my favorite movie ever lol
Evil Dead II is the best film overall, but I still love this movie.
I saw a poll earlier about speculation for who should be the new James Bond.
I looked at the 9 choices proposed, threw them all out the window & said Bruce Campbell & have the movie directed by Sam Rami.
MAKE BURCE CAMPBELL JAMES BOND 007, but he's 'getting to old for this sh*t' like his character Sam Axe in Burn Notice.
EDIT: MAKE THE VILLAIN HE FIGHTS RICH _GODDAMN_ EVANS!
He really is too old for it unfortunately. All those roger Moore bonds are so pathetic by the end. Times are different, but so is Bruce Campbell’s body.
@@Hack_The_Planet_ Exactly. Take the 'p1ss' out of 007.
I know it was based on the life of Christopher Lee, but we all know James Bond is toxic masculinity.
Make him schlubby. Make him a dummy who only gets by on his machismo & blind luck.
MAKE HIM FIGHT RICH _GD_ EVANS & the Interbuttz will explode. RLM will blow up & possibly retire & Rich Evans will become the Govenator of Milwaukee & maybe the President after. World Peace. Kids learn about Rem Lazar & Zatt in the crib & humanity all becomes massive Star Trek fans, saving humanity in 100 short years.
22:00 I can't believe Mike doesn't mention her being in numerous episodes in TNG as that hot security lady, one of Worf's underlings.
Love spaced
"its fine." Such words of wisdom :p
What qualifies a movie for the Video Nasties list? Gratuitous depictions of fun? Good heavens!
Thanks yet again, banya…you’re doing humanities greatest task each time you upload
Best movie skeletons
I expected a "continue in part 2" in Mr Plinkett's voice.
I know it's sacrilegious to say this amongst my fellow horror geeks, but I've never liked a single Sam Raimi film.
Okay please tell me what that "Not Army of Darkness" thing is at 28:11. Because that looks cool as fuck.
Lol dude 😅
"Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III" From 1990 right?
Army of Darkness meets Excalibur. Was that in a music video or something?
It's wibbly wobbly Jonathan Ross!
Evil Dead 2 is the best horror. Army of Darkness is the best Evil Dead.
I love the editing. Having only made a few videos myself and learning the process, your videos are really impressive.
0:47 is that fucking Jonathan Ross?????
edit: having reached 6:41 I've decided it probably was
26:23
Thanks for bringing back Don Beveridge
4:01 boards? those are supposed to big blocks of stone lol
Man this surely was a lot of work and you did a fantastic job!!! You made their great commentary even better.
This movie is nothing but laughs, what are you even talking about Jay? I think you're just trying to sound smart. ❤️🎬😉
I love army of darkness, but I do agree with the RLM guys that I wish more was done with the premise.
When Ash goes back to the past at the end of the previous movie, it looks like he landed in a desert, and I thought in that moment that he landed somewhere in the middle east (maybe Iraq, as regionally that's close to where the sumarian language was spoken, which would tie in well with the necronomicon) and that the knights who found him were on a crusade. I thought that the next movie would be more of a journey-type story where he and this group of knights he comes across travel through the desert fighting deadites and searching for the necronomicon.
