Good Ol' Reliable Jake
for Good Ol' Reliable Jake in Evil Dead: The Movie Musical
Suggested by sephirothscout

Based on the rock musical comedy based on the Evil Dead franchise. Quoting Wikipedia: "Five college students spend the weekend in an abandoned cabin in the woods, accidentally unleashing an evil terror. In this comedic take on the 1980s horror franchise, characters and demons sing and dance to songs written specifically for the musical. And, as in the films, Ash is there to dish out his various one-liners and fight the neverending demons. The musical takes creative liberty with the plot line of the movies, mixing together the characters and concepts of all three, as well as changing sequences for the sake of the stage and comedic intent. Roughly, the first act adapts the original The Evil Dead while the second act adapts Evil Dead II."
