Evil Ed

Evil Ed is a Swedish film about a man named Ed (of course)and his collapse into total madness after editing a series of B horror films known as "The Loose Limbs" series. Ed becomes so mad that he thinks he's seeing demons and monsters but in reality they are people he knows and people that are close to him, such as his wife and daughter.

I first saw this movie back in 1998 and was baffled by what I had seen. To this day, this movie I consider to be one of the darkest comedies out there. As the movie is almost slapstick funny with its gore scenes there are still a few creepy moments.

This is a cool flick but don't expect anything marvelous. It's simply just a fun movie that is good to show some of your friends for some laughs. 8/10 stars

Man jus saw this movie and was it good? ooh yeah it was better.The story's quite simple we have this crazy movie guy who is told to edit European horror trash for dime a dozen, so our man Ed yeah that's' his name goes on editing these horror stuff until he becomes one such looney horror character and then the gorefest begins.Chessy dailogues,total blood mayhem,silly girls,lousy lookin monster yeah u got all the gore stuff right in there. So ye good men all I advice is to leave ur good brains behind for its time to be sic. Coming to the gore ratings i giveth 5 otta 5.And for all u guys out there looking for an intelligent movie this movie's surely aint for u.

This movie was stupid. The plot goes like this, Ed, who is good Ed in the beginning, works at a the "Splatter and Gore" department at a movie company. His boss gives him the assignment to edit "Loose Limbs parts 5, 6, an d 7" to be distributed in Europe. While editing these films that are supposed to be comical rip offs of "Friday the 13th" and the like he begins to question the morals of these movies. He then goes crazy and kills people. It gets even more inane when the director/writer/actor begins to use Evil Dead effects for the chase scene and even has a street punk pick up a crow bar and say "groovy". The final moments are even more ludicrous.

This movie tries way too hard to be cheese and flops terribly. There are needless references to Evil Dead II and Gremlins that are not done well at all. Such as the bosses name happens to be Sam Campbell (hmm Sam Raimi,/Bruce Campbell). Ed's wife's name is Barbara and in a really dumb scene you see Ed coming around the corner saying "Bahbah-ra" (al la Night of the Living Dead). Don't get me wrong, I'm all for parody, but this pile crap lands flat. The acting isn't good and the scripting is so bad it's not even comical in its attempts to be comical. Avoid this movie.

Funny, bloody, gory! This movie is totally awesome and enjoyable! I laughed my butt off, and the killing scenes were good. There's a little lack of logic, like how Ed dodges a shotgun blast in a hallway, but the story is cool.

You know those films that are blatantly awful but you can't help but love them? Well that's what Evil Ed is, possibly the best awful film in the world. The sound is rubbish, the dubbing is crap, the screenplay is nonsense and the special effects are pap. However, I can't help but love this film dearly and I have recommended it to at least 50 people over the years. Sam Campbell (or the guy who plays him) should be featured on the Actor's Studio series as he is that memorable. Possibly the greatest movie villain not named Tony Montana. Seriously, if you don't expect a lot then you won't be disappointed. Keep a light-hearted approach to watching this film and you'll soon rate it a ten afterwards.
