In the 80’s prime minister Margret Thatcher started
An campaigne to ban violent horror movies from being released
And shelved on video one of them was Sam rami’s cult movie classic
The evil dead because it contains an level of brutal violence including
The tree rape scene where an woman got attacked by an demonic tree
And due to the big Sucess at the big screen along came the video release and thatcher did not want it to be released on video and labled
The evil dead as an video nasty and according to the various tabloids
Stated that the evil dead was one of the most vile movies ever and
Also wanted it band along with horror movies like i’ll spit on your grave and the cannibalistic movie cannibal ferox but later in an interview with Johnathon ross the writter and director of evil dead Sam rami came clean and apoligise for any offence the movie it caused for the tree rape scene in evil dead and rami said that he regretted for that scene that was included and he even testified in court that the evil dead movie was not intended to offend viewers and the movie was
Realy intend to shock people and make them laugh before the movie was exposed as an movie shocker nasty the novelist creator for blockbusting novels like the stand and Carrie Stephen king gaved
The evil dead an approval to Sam rami and the director of the movie continued to protest to get the movie uncut and for general video released and the company palace video who released video hits like high spirits got the rights from the producers of evil dead to get it
Released on both Beta max and later on Vhs format the board of censors
Failed the evil dead movie the first time and labled it an video nasty but it did
Not Stop Sam rami for getting the movie released on video and shelved
At video and record stores in the united kingdom but later the Brittish board of certification finaly give the evil dead the green light and got

In video an d record stores and the evil dead video succession was sky high and it led Sam rami along with the movies producers Bruce Campbell and Robert tappert to make the next installment of the
Evil dead franchise and from then on it got an huge fan based world
Wide over but the legacy of banning horror movies were far from
