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.

This movie is like nothing before in the Swedish movie making business. This is the first and maybe the last swedish splatter movie and therefor a must have for splatter fans.

This movie is not as gory as Peter Jackson's Bad Taste and Braindead,but this one also got some gory scenes. This is a low budget movie and that explains why there isn't so much gore and spesial fx. The budget was actually only 250 000 swedish kroner. Even though the budget was low they have still managed to make a good splatter/horror movie.

The things that make it funny is that it parodies many famous horror movies like The evil dead,Gremlins and many more It starts of like a normal movie and it takes a while before it really gets entertaining. And at the end is the best gore scenes.

This is a good contribute to the splatter genre,and a milestone in the swedish movie history.
