I had the great pleasure to see Evil Dead: The Musical on Friday, June 15. We had seats in the second row of tables, which is near the splatter zone. Yes, this is a musical with a splatter zone!

This is a bloody, gory, vulgar musical that was written especially for horror fans, and it kicked ass! The actors obviously have a lot of fun getting into character as demons and demon slayers. The show is excellent throughout, unlike many musicals that fall apart in the second act. In fact, the first act of Evil Dead is just a taste of the comedy, violence, and blood splatter that the show has in store.

Come the second act, the front rows of the audience were cheering as the blood sprayed all over them. The second act was more funny, had more dancing, more violence, and everything else that the audience craved. This was a show that built up to a glorious, bloody climax! You'll want to become a demon yourself so that you can join in and dance the Necronomicon too. Highly recommended!

Evil Dead is playing at the Diesel Playhouse in Toronto. It has been extended to August 4th, so get your tickets immediately!
