I just watched this one yesterday, and I mentioned it in my review of it, but why is this film considered a remake of part 1? I didn't see anything in there that would make me consider it as such.
HELP!!!!!

I guess because at the beginning it shows a recap of the first one and the main movie just continues what happened that night.....?
Not sure really.

It is only though to be a remake by people that know very little about it. For the first few years after Evil Dead 2 came out I heard that it was a remake too. At the begining of Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness Sam put in a recap of the story to let everyone know what is going on for new and old fans alike. Sam talks more about this on one of the Evil Dead 2 dvds.

Yeah, cause the way I saw it, it was just a continuation of part 1 the second after Ash gets hit by the demon forces and the rest was just day 2 and night. It just struck me as odd that all the box art for it says that it's a remake of part 1.

Yeah, me too. I looked at my IMDb profile and realized I didn't have one for part 2, so I sat down and watched it and didn't see anything close to resembling part 1.

I was checking the The Evil Dead remake page on imdb, and seen a thread about they are already a remake for The Evil Dead so I just had to click on it. Can anyone guess what movie they where talking about? Yeah you guessed it Evil Dead 2...Just about every post in the thread was saying that yes Evil Dead 2 is a remake and Sam and Bruce both say that it is on the Evil Dead 2 dvd. Well they don't say that and just from that thread I now think that most of the people that post on the imdb forums are stupid. Sorry if any of our members post there.  |

None taken, Conan, and I came here because the people on the IMDb forums were stupid. No one knew what they were talking about, and I would often wonder why people with such limited IQs were still allowed to be breathing. I joined up just so I could put people in their place about being so stupid, but I decided that reviewing movies would be a better use of my time there, and I don't even post over there anymore. I think I haven't made a post there in almost three years.

When I first watched ED2, the first five minutes made it seem like a remake but when it started properly, it was a whole new movie.

That's exactly my point. It's a recap of part 1, but then it goes somewhere else entirely. It's not a remake of part 1. I just wanted to know why people think is it when it so clearly isn't.

Like you said, people on IMDB have as much brain power as an un-charged battery.
