In this episode of the Obligatory Movie Game Podcast, Devon and Jackson sit down to discuss another beloved horror franchise with “Evil Dead: Fistful of Boomstick” for the PS2/Xbox. The game tells its own story, and gets some points for its outlandish premise: some fresh translations of the Necronomicon are read live on a talk show, which unleashes some familiar horrors on Dearborn Michigan, and Ash, voiced by Bruce Campbell, needs to travel to various different time periods to fix the blunder. It’s got enough one-liners to fill a log cabin, and an aggravating, endless supply of deadites that the player can dismember with an impressive arsenal of toys that includes dynamite, molotov cocktails, shotguns, pistols, katanas and of course, Ash’s handy chainsaw.
