Should I be laughing? Should I be scared? Should I be pissed I blew a dollar on this movie? I don't get why it has such a cult following.

The humor in that movie may have been funny when I was 8 years old. I think this is another movie which has a strong nostalgia factor and/or fanboy factor inthe case of Federman.

Great, great movie and a cult classic. I loved it the first time I saw it and it just gets better each and every time. No one does physical comedy as well as Bruce Campbell and as has already been mentioned in this thread, his one-liners are the stuff of legend.
"Yo, she-bitch. Come get some."
Respect the boomstick.

I'd never seen anything with content from it (cept Duke Nukem, I guess, but Duke wasn't cool), and I also didn't see it when I was young, but I did see it for the first time a couple years ago or something and I thought it was HILARIOUS.
Not really for the one liners, though some were good, but for how cheesy it was on purpose. Like when ash was fighting all the skeletons, and this one was dragging itself by it's arms with a knife in it's mouth and it was like "yarrg, I'l cut out your gizzard!" then at the end when Ash took like 15 shots at that dead lady and she does two dodge moves to evade them as she is flying at him, hahahaha

how can you not find funfilled hard rockin demon filled action with comedy and horror with the best dialouge of one liners combined into such an epic script of massive elaboration that can only apply to the adventure we all dream of saving the world from massive destruction and an unspeakable evil only to have crazy women falling in love with you as soon as you mention your boomstick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!entertaining?
there is something wrong with you if you don't find it entertaining.
Ash Rules!!

It is funny because it is so overblown, over the top, and choreographed to the point of utter ridiculousness. The Ash character's one liners are right on the nose and delivered with such conviction, confidence and most of all unrealism.
You are taking the movie completely wrong. A lot of people just miss the point of movies. Raimi's Quick and The Dead is similar and went over the head of most of its audience. Starship Troopers is another good example of a movie that very few people actually get.
