I have something embarrassing to admit...

I've loved horror movies all my life and never seen Evil Dead. I've seen almost every ridiculous horror franchise of the 80's and 90's but somehow I've never got around to seeing it.

Was it an actual scary movie or was it something along the lines of Cabin in the Woods where it's a new story that pokes fun at the genre? I hear people talk about Evil Dead like it's a joke/comedy, although maybe It's just a cultural thing I don't get because I haven't seen it.
