See this film: Army of Darkness @fter midnight at the Coolidge

In addition to being the big shot director of blockbusters like Spider-Man, Sam Raimi is a master of splatter, as evidenced by Army Of Darkness (1992), the concluding chapter of his Evil Dead trilogy. In it the legendary Bruce Campbell returns as Ash, the wisecracking hero of the earlier films, who gets transported back to a grisly 14th century where he must fight the power of black magic and visceral special effects to retrieve the Necronomicon, his ticket back home. Kind of like A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court with ghouls, guts, and an army of skeletons, it screens Friday, August 12 and Saturday, August 13 at midnight, at the Coolidge Corner Theatre, 290 Harvard St, Brookline | $9 | 617.734.2500 or coolidge.org.
