"A horror cult classic."
— Marjorie Baumgarten, Austin Chronicle
"But Evil Dead 2's rampant inventiveness and manic energy have ensured that it will endure as a cult classic."
— Joshua Klein, The A.V. Club
"I wholeheartedly love Evil Dead II. It's a great midnight movie, and one of the best horror-comedies ever made."
— R.L. Shaffer, IGN
"Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn never lets up, continually introducing new characters and adding new thrills and chills right up to the last frame."
— Staff, Los Angeles Times
"Not so much a follow-up as a ruthless self-parody, Evil Dead II ranks as one of the most visually inventive, relentless, and truly original films ever made."
— Matt Ford, BBC
"The gaudily gory, virtuoso, hyper-kinetic horror sequel/remake uses every trick in the cinematic book, and confirms that Bruce Campbell and Raimi are gods."
— William Thomas, Empire
"A deliriously cinematic experience for those with a taste for Grand Guignol, this is a relentlessly energetic nightmare world where quite literally anything can happen--and does."
— Staff, TV Guide Magazine
"Thanks to Sam Raimi’s inventive style and Bruce Campbell’s hysterical performance, the horror-comedy genre has grown into a legitimate genre, but Evil Dead 2 will forever be the king."
— Jeremy Zoss, Film Threat
"Evil Dead 2 is, pardon the expression, consistently lively--a ghoulish splatter comedy that uses wildly excessive gore to provoke the kind of shock that lies between a laugh and a scream."
— Staff, Chicago Tribune
"Using the same breathless pacing, rushing camera movements and nerve-jangling sound effects as before, Raimi drags us screaming into his cinematic funhouse. Delirious, demented and diabolically funny."
— Staff, Time Out
