It\\u2019s the definitive Sam Raimi film - a \\u201csymphony of silly\\u201d with a bravura performance from Bruce Campbell, and a prevailing sense of, \\u201cthe more gore the merrier!\\u201d John Hodgman - who, believe it or not, was Bruce Campbell\\u2019s literary agent! - joins us to chat about the magic of \\u201cEvil Dead II\\u201d and what puts it in the pantheon of \\u201csequels that improve upon the original installment.\\u201d Also in this episode - we imagine the time when Sam Raimi, the Coens, Frances McDormand, and Holly Hunter were all roommates in Silverlake; a behind the scenes look at the publication of Bruce Campbell\\u2019s best-selling memoir \\u201cIf Chins Could Kill\\u201d; and an unrelated but very involved tangent about the Peanuts comic strip.\\xa0
