review by
Mike Haberfelner



Ash (Bruce Campbell) learns from Pablo (Ray Santiago), who of recently has second sight, that Kelly (Dana DeLorenzo) couldn't return from the netherworld last episode because her body's possessed by a demon. So Ash drives over to Ruby's (Lucy Lawless) to force her to make Kelly unpossessed and give him her body. But they're cut short when the Dark Ones arrive who have come through the rift in Ash's hardware store's basement, and who kill Ruby and make Kelly's body unpossessed, so Ash, soon joined by Pablo and his daughter Brandy (Arielle Carver-O'Neill) can get away with Kelly's body as intended. An almost happy ending, as the Dark Ones plan to take over earth, and their intentions aren't noble ...

 

Now there are some really good laughs in this episode, but as a whole this one shows above everything else what's not going right in Ash vs. Evil Dead anymore, as the once enjoyably simple premise just becomes more and more convoluted, and since this is the second to last episode of the season (and series), pulling a new and relatively generic threat out of the hat really works contraproductively here. Also Ash again is too much straight hero rather than fallible hero-by-chance works against character. That's not to say the episode isn't at all entertaining, but it's rather the occasional sight gag that grabs one's fancy than the thing as a whole.
