If you enjoyed Prime Video's Lazarus-like bounty hunter, we think you'll love these too

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Fans of action horror series are having fun with The Bondsman , which is currently Prime Video's most popular show in the US at the time of writing.

It's the tale of a backwoods bounty hunter (Kevin Bacon) who unexpectedly finds himself dead and then even more unexpectedly finds himself alive
again. That means he's got a second chance at live and love, but the Devil himself has got other ideas.

If you like your shows with a bit of silliness amid the action, The Bondsman definitely delivers. And if you're looking for more quirky shows to stream on Prime Video, these three are well worth watching. Ash vs Evil Dead RT rating: 99% Where to watch: Prime Video (US), Netflix (Australia)

Evil Dead 2 is one of my very favorite films, a gloriously gory, spooky and silly horror classic thats delighted generations of film fans. The TV
spin-off is true to the original movies, with Bruce Campbell reprising his role as the undead's worst enemy.

As the Sydney Morning Herald explained, "If you're a fan of the mixed-genre genre, this is a cracker, and aficionados of Sam Raimi's original films will love revisiting tropes, touchstones and Raimi's distinctive style. This also works perfectly well for newbies, though."

And the LA Times urged readers to "praise Bruce Campbell, the strong-chinned star". The show "splendidly, even triumphantly converts the comedy-horror movie franchise into a TV series." Preacher RT rating: 92% (season 3) Where
to watch: Prime Video (US)

I watched Preacher with my teen, and I think that makes me one of the world's worst parents: this live-action comic book caper is incredibly violent,
deeply damaged and gratuitously horrible. And I mean all of that as a compliment.

It's a flawed show for sure, but it's wickedly funny and keeps turning a dial marked "too much?" ever higher; if you like the gross-out moments of T he
Boys , you'll love this.

As The Straits Times explains, "It is an eccentric blend of existentially charged science fiction, the supernatural, action, comedy and drama, and spiced up with some very graphic violence and grotesque special effects."
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency RT rating: 100% (Season 2) Where to watch : Prime Video (US), Netflix (UK and AU)

From the mind of Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy author Douglas Adams, this quirky adventure "is a whirlwind of time traveling madness, beautiful friendships with a dash of a secret government conspiracy added in for good measure," says The Digital Fix .

"The series is Sherlock suffused with the DNA of Twin Peaks, Lost and Benny Hill," the Boston Herald raved. "This is a delightful, addictive show."

It's a very loose adaptation of the original novels, Den of Geek says, but it's "a freewheeling comedy-thriller, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is agreeably daft entertainment". And the St. Louis Post-Dispatch said "It's dark and funny and appalling and sad and silly, and very much its own thing."
