Classic Evil Dead fans --- need your opinion.

Back in the day I was a huge Evil Dead fan.

When George Harrison came out with his video I've Got My Mind Set On You I couldn't help but notice at least a subconscious resemblance to this scene from Evil Dead-2.

I told this to my friends and family back in the day and it's been an injoke with us ever since.

Just wondering if anyone else ever thought this ?

Absolutely thought this before!!!
That's a complete rip from evil dead 2.
We're not alone Mikey other people have made the comparison before as well,a quick internet search and you'll see.
Both are still great though.

[Godzilla]

100% correct!

I thought I was alone

[Earth 2 Chris]

Yeah, I noticed it too. If George had gotten into a fight with his possessed hand, that would have made for a more exciting video!

And wasn't there TWO videos for this song? This one was the one in heavy rotation, but I recall another where George is a figure in a music box, singing and playing the song, and it has a more 50s/60s feel?

yes there were two videos for the song. I believe one was originally for the England audience. the second video was a kid in the early sixties or so trying to get a ballerina toy out of one of the game machines for a pretty girl he had seen trying to get it

[Gorn Captain]

Definitely a rip-off.
And oddly enough, what happens in the video has nothing to do with the song, so what's the point?
