That old cabin in the woods is now a crime scene.

Here is our review of Ash vs.

Evil Dead Ashes to Ashes

ThisAsh vs Evil Deadreview contains spoilers.

Yes, its a brand spanking new set.

Yes, the layout is convincing and it looks the same.

Yes, its a sight for sore eyes.

But theres something missing.

Or did that even officially happen now?

I dont know anymore.

Maybe nothings wrong with the cabin itself.

We dont know how it happened, but shes here, so run with it.

ButAsh vs Evil Deadis doing that thing again.

You know what I mean.

(Some of his brief reaction scenes in the firstEvil Deaddont count in my book.)

And, surprisingly, suspense.

And, no, its not just because its a weird situation in general.

Its just, why would Ash be letting that get to him this late in the game?

Id have figured that hed smash in its skull as soon as it started talking.

Its true, Ash.

You smell that bad.

Meanwhile, as Agent Fisher gets to snoop around the cabin, what are Pablo and Kelly up to?

Oh, you know.

Just wandering through the woods carrying automatic weapons, trying to catch up to their friends.

They run into a group of New Zealanders who are hiking in the area on their vacation.

They point our favorite Scrappy Doos towards the direction of the cabin, since they passed by it earlier.

Looking forward to that.

So…we should really talk about Ashs evil twin, shouldnt we?

Its kind of a big deal.

It felt downright ugly, in fact.

And strangely incongruent with what weve seen of the badass detective so far.

But, hey, at least she got to chop up the hand.

This is understandable from a storytelling perspective.

That time it happened inArmy of Darknesswas pretty funny, right?

Before the evil one turned into a skeleton warrior, anyway.

Linda made a reference to Jacksonville, Ashs favorite place in the world (that hes never been.)

Wonder if hes going to run away to there after the finale.

I wonder whats in that cellar now…

   Love that the Professor Knowbys recorder started playing randomly.

THE NOT SO GROOVY

   Speaking of Knowby-s....what no, Ruby this time?

I was hoping shed catch up to the gang by now at least.

Im confused at the passage of time in this episode.

How long was Ash stuck in the woodshed?

Wouldnt Fisher have went out and looked for him if he had been gone that long?

And what of the hands regenerated body?

How long did that take to grow again?

And why did Fisher and the kids split up?

They should have stayed together.
