Sam Raimi is perhaps best known for The Evil Dead (1981). Although its low-budget origins were apparent and its level of gore bordered on the cartoonish, The Evil Dead became one of the most influential horror films of all time, and Raimi’s use of “shaky cam”—a handheld camera technique that was intended to replicate the point-of-view of a given character or object—was widely emulated.
