That was an excellent one.

Sorry, this movie sucks

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I can't say the movie is good, because the only thing good about it are a few moments. Some of the violence is really fun, but a lot of it is very boring, repetitive and not funny. And that is not a good thing when your movie revolves around that. I wouldn't say that it is worth watching the whole movie, but some parts of it are very good. Just search for them on YouTube. But there is something I have to give it credit for. It's very original. And that is because of the concept. It had potential to be a better movie, but it was not executed in the best way. I think that it could had been up there with evil dead if the execution was better. Conclusion: search for the best parts on YouTube.

"Evil Ed" is a warning sent to the American film industry from Sweden of all places. If you do no stop churning out repetitive, boring, horror movies, we will unleash our secret weapon on the cinema world. This weapon will come in the form of an over the top "black comedy", with a mean spirited script, adequate acting, and outlandish special effects. This will bury your "slasher in the woods" parade of trash horror films, and create a whole new genre for generations of fans yet unborn. From the grenade in the mouth exploding head beginning, to the flying limbs conclusion, movie goers will be mesmerized by Ed's evilness. Creativity lives, and it comes from Sweden. - MERK

This Swedish mad film was sort of scary, but more a horror tribute film with a splash of comedy with it. The premise is of an editor that has edited one too many slasher movies and slowly goes insane and kills people. First off the great thing about this movie is its movie connections with other great classics. The green monster in the fridge closely resembles The Gremlins. The director of the slasher movie in this movie is named Sam Campbell, a tribute to Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi from Evil Dead. There are many posters of b-movies on the walls that make this movie what it is. The movie alone is titled Evil Ed in reference to Evil Dead.The humor in this movie is not over done, but at times uncalled for. The Boss of Edward has some great lines and some of the wacky things that Ed says is also pretty funny. The movie does get pretty gory at some points, like the hospital scene.However, despite these connections, the movie had bad acting, bad lighting and very bad voice-overs. The plot is pretty schmaltzy and sometimes flawed. If they could have improved on these aspects they could have had something going.Overall, if your looking for a good gore-time and a funny spoof, but not a real horror film, than this is a movie for you.

The glorious Edward gets to move up in the world when his supervisor tells him that he can drop those filthy Swedish drama movies and head up stairs to the splatter and gore department. Excited along with his big anticipations for the new type of movies he soon will be going to edit, he asks all sorts of questions, about the wage, his workspace and lunch brake. Well, not really. Edward is maybe quite the opposite. Calm, stuttering guy, on top of that, he got glasses. With the exception when he's insane. I guess that created a much creepier atmosphere.Evil Ed is with all reason a Swedish movie, but somehow a magical force came across the good actors and turned their lovely Swedish accents into stereotypical American voices. I guess that's some of the expertise an actor needs these days. The acting is very….wooden, as in they are inflexible, not bendable (well hey, what did you actually expect?). On top of that the movie has a jamming techno theme song, sounds like its E-Type. In any case, this only makes the movie experience worse. Since I'm fairly harsh against this movie so far, there will usually be a breaking point where I tone the level of happiness up. But there's really not much to say. The blueprints look good, but somehow 'Hanz' spelt coffee over it and partially destroyed it. That's how I look at this movie. If the movie ended where Edward is taken to a mental institute and they refurnished the parts from where he goes insane and kills people, the result would have been much better, but that's just my radical view. I would also like to see more footage from the lose limbs movies.There are also illogical things to discover in this piece of movie. Let's to say that the actors really are American, living in America, why would they then work on a Swedish movie, like Edward did? And also, that delivery man, why is it that he never uses the doorbell which is located directly beside him? Instead he goes away with tapping softly at the door. Good old Edward really got some good ears to hear all that while he is editing.Anyway, this movie had its moments, it's just a shame there were not that many. But that doesn't mean I would not recommend it. It's a rather cheap movie, go ahead and buy. It's almost like I see a pattern for the price and the movie. On the other side; if you like watching dubbed movies getting crappier by the second this might be IT. My verdict would then be a rock solid 4.
