For a number of reasons, and those for the best movie, imo:
1) The Lovecraftian intro gives us a dark insight into the evil, then the turning title logo, great tunnel shot reminiscent of The Shining
2) No unnecessary complication with dumbass characters, just Ash here
3) That cute piano number which is of sentimental value later, like the necklace in ED1
4) The fascinating log entry of Knowby, drawing us in
5) Resulting in unexpected Evil Dead roaring in the forest and crashing through a cabin window, getting Linda (looked so dumb in AOD)
6) Linda is possessed and resembles a marionettte, pulled by demonic strings (stop and start movements)
7) Ash is shocked and surprised, kills and burys her like nothing (likely, lol)
7) Fantastic shot of him burying the cross
8) POV demon sends Ash through rollercoaster resulting in night to day change and him white-eyed, possessed, but recovered because of the Sun (always the Sun)
9) Ash wakes up, even that shot is awesome
10) Camera rolls around 360 degrees, with no evil present. Tense atmosphere
I mean, come on!
