You miss the point of the original. Yeah, the effects haven't aged well, but it's a hell of a lot better then any of the totally unscary CGI fests out there. It has some humorous and campy undertones. It's a tradition for Sam Raimi movies. The man is a brilliant director. If you hate it that's fine, but that doesn't mean it's terrible by ANY means.
