"The 1980s saw dozens of low budget horror films that went on to be huge hits. One of those, 1981's The Evil Dead, became a cult classic that inspired several sequels, TV shows, and even comic books and video games. It also was turned into a stage musical, aptly named Evil Dead The Musical. The creators wisely chose not to attempt to make the musical adaptation as horrifying as the film, since attempting to create horror on stage isn't an easy task, instead making it a campy, satirical lovefest to the original film and its two sequels. Fountain Hills Theater's production features a cast who throw themselves into the humorous onstage shenanigans, along with smart direction and wonderful creative elements, resulting in a comical and joyful two-hour romp that fans of the films and musical comedies are sure to enjoy." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
