On Halloween, I ordered The Evil Dead and Evil Dead II because I’ve never seen the Evil Dead films before, and II came in the mail today (they were shipped separately).

Well, my dad found out that I had Evil Dead II, and to my surprise, he freaked out. In hindsight, it actually isn’t that surprising, since he has always been unreasonable when it comes to entertainment standards for people who aren’t himself, but I simply wasn’t expecting it at the time. So, he took the disc from me. Now I’ll have to find out where he put it and hide it somewhere myself. It’s just so annoying to have to deal with this crap.

I’m 17, I spend half of my days on a computer/television, and I purchased a film that I was interested in watching with my own money. Does he really think that I haven’t already seen whatever it is he disapproves of in there? And he gave the whole “you’re not watching that in my house on anything I own” speech, but who says I was going to watch it at home? I mean, I would have watched them at home sometime, but that’s not my point. It really killed the mood after we finished watching The Iron Giant, too.

It’s also kind of a bummer that I won’t be able to afford Scream Factory’s Army of Darkness release until around Christmas, so I’ll probably end up waiting a little while after watching Evil Dead II, but I suppose I can live with that.
