Why It Rocks

 * 1) Ash's character, played by Bruce Campbell, is improved a lot in this sequel. In the first movie, he was entertaining but was overall a bit of a pushover. In this movie, however, the events of the first turned him into a gigantic badass, fearlessly taking on the forces of the dead without holding back.
 * 2) Amazing acting.
 * 3) The scene where Ash has a chainsaw attached to one hand and a shotgun in the other hand is the most stupidly awesome scene in the film.
 * 4) Great soundtrack.
 * 5) The cinematography in this movie is improved from the first. While the camera work in the first move was inventive, this one pushes it even further. There are some scenes where the camera breaks through the window of a car or tracks the character all the way through the cabin without any cuts. Some of these tricks would later be used by director Sam Raimi in his Spider-Man movies.
 * 6) All of the demons look grotesque and awesome.
 * 7) Bruce Campbell is an absolute badass, especially when using the chainsaw.
 * 8) The knowby cabin is a creepy haunting piece of art.

The ONLY Bad Quality

 * 1) Jake is very unlikeable, he treated ash like total crap like punching him and throwing him in the basement and forcing him to go outside to find Bobby joe with his own shotgun (Boomstick). until he got his comeuppance from Henrietta by eating him.
