A vial of green glowing stuff brings back the dead, but they don’t say thanks with flowers.
With a similar black comedy-shock styling as Sam Raimi’s The Evil Dead (1981), it's extra-crispy, deep-fried fun. A horror film from the decade when horror films were good.
3½ dead cat backpacks out of 5

These ratings are all relative. I would definitely give this one 5 disembodied heads giving head out of 5.
Yeah, it's all subjective. I start with a mark out of ten and then halve it. So it got 7. That's a good score in my sticky book.
If it's any consolation, I'd let Herbert West have sex with my sister, if I had a sister. :D
Yeah...3's pretty good in my books too.
It's got to be a REALLY good movie to get a 5 from me.
Jeez, you guys are so stingy with your disembodied heads giving heads. :P
I'm used to grading on a four-star scale, so it's a little different (2.5 and under is bad, 3 and up is good). When I rate movies on Netflix, 3 stars is usually mediocre to slightly entertaining for me, 5 is classic, 1 is shite. The half-stars make it even more difficult to determine.
Anyhoo, carry on. I just wanted to weigh in on my opinion with this movie. For me, it's a classic. These reviews fall a little flat without this back and forth camaraderie.
It's like Ebert, Roeper & dead guy are having at it in the hot-tub.
I tried to "like" your comment, but I almost ended up deleting it.
Caught this in theaters for its 40th anniversary (remastered in 4K) and I still stick by my rating of 5 heads giving head out of 5. Although I always tend to conflate both films into one. To me, it's on par with the original Night of the Living Dead and The Evil Dead. Something about it just strikes the right chord within me.
