    Given the budget they had to work with, it was as faithful an interpretation as you were going to get. I enjoyed it on the same level as I might enjoy “Are You Afraid Of The Dark” episodes.

    But it pales in comparison with the book series. The Lovecraftian vibe you get in some of those chapters is chilling in a way a goofy Evil Dead styling just can’t deliver.
