===Reviews===
Evil Dead The Musical has had overwhelmingly positive reviews.
* ''The New York Times'' has called it "The Next Rocky Horror Show".<ref>{{cite news |last1=Gates |first1=Anita |title=Evil Dead Review |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/02/theater/reviews/02evil.html |work=New York Times}}</ref> * ''Entertainment Weekly'' called it "The show is as funny as it is gory" <ref>{{cite journal |last1=Collis |first1=Clark |title=The show is as funny as it is gory |journal=Entertainment Weekly}}</ref> * ''The Hollywood Reporter'' called it "Silly, fun, loosely campy and not terrifying at all"<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/stage-stage-evildead-dc-idUSN0221046120061102|title="Evil Dead" musical a bloody good time|date=2006-11-02|work=Reuters|access-date=2019-07-16|language=en}}</ref> * And ''Variety (magazine)'' said "Evil Dead: The Musical” should be a disaster.... It has self-aware jokes, ironically earnest songs and a tacit assertion that the creators think their entire project is a goof. And yet it works. The show's wit, gore and stage magic make it a ridiculous amount of fun."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://variety.com/2006/legit/markets-festivals/evil-dead-the-musical-1200512248/|title=Evil Dead: The Musical|last1=Blankenship|first1=Mark|date=2006-11-02|work=Variety|language=en|access-date=2019-07-16}}</ref>
