A fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the work of the Kurtzman, Nicotero, and Berger EFX Group (aka KNB Studios), the people who "did no less" than make the Army of Darkness. The special effects work is covered from the original ideas that Raimi and the effects guys came up with, through the creation of costumes and methods for animating deadites and skeletons alike, and into the use of effects in the production of the film itself.
