The Evil Dead

still holds up to the test of time for the most part, thanks to the amazing practical effects, freaky gore, raimi's kinetic direction, dread-filled atmosphere, eerie sound design, and lots of great jumpscares. the low budget and overwhelmingly 80s feel sometimes do get in the way of the quality of the movie like in the distasteful tree scene and some of the camp breaking the tension of certain sequences unintentionally, but sometimes it kinda does enhance the experience. without all these campy moments, this franchise would have never existed and my favorite all time horror movie evil dead 2013 would have never been created.
