It’s chewy popcorn television, where everything zips by at face value, from the laughs to the thrills to the kills, and once again, Ash Vs. Evil Dead delivers this mayhem with gutsy results. Read full review

Ash vs. Evil Dead remains as confident and comfortable with itself as before, never afraid to indulge in its own preferred level of slimy recklessness at any given moment. Read full review

Collider Chris Cabin

Bringing back his most iconic creation in Campbell felt faintly self-reflexive for Raimi in the first season of Ash vs Evil Dead, but in Season 2, that personal, almost confessional element feels more sturdily at the center of the action and the series feels infinitely more galvanized for that.

The story hits the gas immediately in season two, immediately juicing up the excellent comedic chemistry between Campbell, DeLorenzo and Santiago while taking the story into fraught emotional spaces for Ash. Read full review

Ash’s vivacious vocabulary is largely intact, but this series needs more creativity in its stories, side characters (who’ve more than earned their own plots) and action scenes--not just in dumping blood everywhere. Read full review

It's just as funny, inventive, and creatively grotesque as ever. An extra added layer of depth and a surprising kick of emotion has been added to the mix as the story takes us back to Ash's hometown where we get to take a look at his family life. Pablo and Kelly are given a little bit more to do than just be sidekicks. Their characters have undergone some growth and have their own issues to deal with.

The handful of new reoccurring characters fit in nicely. Ted Raimi showing up is icing on the cake and a nice bit of fanservice given his ties to the Evil Dead series. The throwbacks to the films are always a nice touch. Although I have to question why we needed to return to the cabin again. I was constantly surprised by the ability of these ten episodes to consistently come up with bigger, crazier moments than even that of the first season. There are some insane and hilarious moments that rival that of the original trilogy.

Some slight improvements to the formula and more deranged monsters and comedic excellence keep the momentum going. I appreciated this season's cleaner ending that leaves the door open for the show to go in any direction. I, for one, can't wait for season 3. There's one little mystery Lee Majors left us with that I can't wait to get the answer to. Even without that, it looks like there are still plenty of reasons to hail the king, baby. What with the steps forward taken and ceaselessly entertaining delivery of the absurd and the macabre.… Expand

This season was even better than the first one and will be very hard to top.

Maybe some flaws are still there but it exceeded every possible expectation with better characters, a better story and awesome action and soundtrack. I was really amazed and hooked after each episode. Check itThis season was even better than the first one and will be very hard to top.

Ash Vs Evil Dead’s second season offers more of the same comically over the top violence and dark sense of humour that the movies and TV series are known for. By this point you’ll likely already know whether or not that will appeal to you…… Expand
