Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

What a beautiful movie!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Cons: Some of the stories might be a bit cheesy and predictable. The makeup/costumes and effect are not the best and sometimes even bad. Pros: The actors are doing a great job. The characters and dialogues are well put together and really funny. I found this show enjoyable and it managed to make me laugh many times.

As you've probably noticed, there's a lot of reviews comparing this particular show to that of "Ash vs. Evil Dead." A majority are saying that "Stan Against Evil" had ripped off "Ash vs. Evil Dead's" style. However, I do not think so. You could also say that "Ash vs. Evil Dead" ripped off "The Evil Dead" and made a show out of it. The story lines are completely different, the humor is different, and the plot are two totally different things. So, don't believe all of the crap from comments. This is definitely a show you'll have to sit down and judge for yourself. It's kind of funny on how the whole story is about 126 demons trying to kill the Sheriff of this little town. Everything in this show is so cheesy. However, that's how it was designed. It's not supposed to be taken seriously. Janet Varney Plays the new Sheriff, her and Stan are fighting the demons of this small town, Janet Varney being the target of them all. Stan's wife used to hunt these demons, but never told anyone. Hmmm. If you like dry, or slapstick, humor mixed in with a goofy horror adventure, then this will be a good show to watch. Remember, viewers shouldn't take this show too seriously, it's not about how well it comes together, or one plot or villain. "Stan Against Evil" is all about having a good time.

*Spoilers* First, let me state the obvious. The shows are too short, and John C. McGinley is hilarious. Clearly this is inspired by "Ash vs. Evil Dead" but it is not a rip-off. Sheriff Stanley Miller (John C. McGinley) attends the funeral of his recently deceased wife and gets into a violent confrontation with a witch that only he can see. Thus forced to retire he soon discovers his late wife was protecting him from a 400+ year old curse that caused the untimely and horrifying demise of all the previous town sheriffs. He now must ally himself with the new sheriff, who just happens to be a woman...And from out-of- town to boot, to fight off a seemingly never-ending horde of witches, demons and devils. Add to this a whole town full of colorful characters and an odd daughter and you have the perfect foils for McGinley's old-fashioned, misogynistic, sarcastic humor. If you have a slightly warped sense of humor, a love of shows about the para-normal & supernatural, you will enjoy this show. It is programmed into my DVR so I won't miss a minute.

Right, so first things first: This isn't a total ripoff from Ash vs Evil Dead.It really seems that way with the name being so similar, and then you go on to read the summary where it says it's about a reluctant aging hero fighting off infernal foes. But the similarities kind of end right there. Now, there isn't to say that there are no similarities with the Evil Dead franchise. The one-liners are there, the make up effects, the camera angles borrowed directly from Raimi's bag of tricks. But, watching the show, this all feels a lot more like homages and references to the Evil Dead (and other horror classics) than a blatant ripoff. As the pilot progresses, we come to see that the story does have it's own thing going on. And Sheriff Miller himself is pretty different from Ash. He's way less immoral and bohemian, and way smarter. He's kind of a retired badass. Now that I think of it, he shares way more similarities with Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley's character in Scrubs) than to Ash.But that's enough about the show's relation to AVED. Let's move on.First off, the acting in this one is top notch, specially for a (apparently) low-budget show. John McGinley delivers a spot on interpretation as Sheriff Stan Miller (but then again, the character does fall directly into his playhouse). Deborah Baker and Nate Mooney also give very endearing and funny performances during their quick, yet very entertaining screen time.The comedy part of the show is great. It didn't have me rolling of laughter or anything, but the writing and jokes are pretty witty and with excellent timing. And the horror part of the show is surprisingly strong too. The second episode has one very interesting scene that I won't spoil. The creepy scenes are full of atmosphere, and the excellent (and quite unique) soundtrack only adds to the mood.I do have two complaints about the show though: First, 20 minutes per episode is quite short for this kind of show, and because of that, the first episode had some pacing issues. Sometime a lot of stuff happened in a short period of time, and some of the plot elements didn't really had enough time to establish themselves in a satisfying and "believeble" way. The second episode does have way better pacing though. The second complaint I have is about the action sequences. I think the big baddies of each episode deserved a way more climatic and intense battle before they were dispatched, to give the show more intensity, but that really wasn't the case. Well, I hope the coming episodes features more hard hitting battles.All in all, this show is a delight for horror fans. It's funny, it's creepy. And if you're an Evil Dead fan like I am, I think you will enjoy the references and the similar tone like I did.
