This one really intrigues me - Evil Dead II. I just saw a screening of an original 35mm print

Castro, right? That's where I learned that AOD should look as blue as the Director's Cut BD. That being said, I don't think there's anything wrong with their set-up. What you see was probably quite accurate.

Is that yellow-green-cyan-blue palette how ED2 originally looked?

Maybe.

The 25th Anniversary just looks like a mess to me color-wise despite the all right amount of detail. Flesh tones are far too red, which makes me wonder if it really is just some old transfer (as many of them used to have that issue). No prior release made the characters look like that.

I'm not sure any release has been perfectly accurate though.

I made a fairly thorough ED II color-timing comparison of all the releases from TV cut (likely a very old 1980's analog telecine) to the 25th anniversary BD for See No Evil's site. Link below:

Hope it's useful.

Maybe if we find the right one, a project ala Andrea's The Thing could be done.
