The Evil Dead

The Evil Dead is a survival horror adventure game produced by Palace Software for the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum. It is based on the 1981 horror film of the same name.

Although the C64 version received a full commercial release, the ZX Spectrum version was never released on its own and eventually appeared on the "B"-side of Cauldron.

The Evil Dead was the first (and for some time, only) officially licensed video game based on the series. Starting with 2000's Evil Dead: Hail to the King, several other Evil Dead games have since been released, albeit from other publishers and with no direct connection to Palace's 1984 game.
