Army of Darkness is a perfect post pub film. There isnt much dialogue, so you can talk all the way through it, it is violent and, best of all it is incredibly funny. Ash's fight with himself is right up there with the fight he has with his hand in Evil Dead II.
The special effects are a little raggedy around the edges (it was made just slightly too early, before CG was extensively used), but it is easy to overlook that through their sheer inventiveness.
Basically, it sure aint high brow film making, but it is suitably low brow to be laugh out loud funny. And Bruce Campbell just kills me.
