Having lost his girlfriend to the undead, Ash is forced to face the possessed corpse of his former lover Linda and cut her up with a chainsaw to stop him becoming her victim. However the demons in the cabin are not that easy to stop and soon his hand has become possessed as well....( read more)
Pretty much the same as the first one, only with lots more spewing blood. I don't really understand why the director couldnt use footage from his own film and instead had to recreate the end of the first movie at the beginning of this one.
