I love Army of Darkness, but the one part I always hated was Evil Sheila.
Raimi makes such great deadites but hers was just lazy. Not weird. Not scary. Not sexy. Not anything.
I'm not sure what he was going for with her. She just looked like the Bride of Frankenstein.
It's not a huge complaint. I just always notice the missed opportunity there.
Sheila is great as a human. But a boring deadite. -

I agree that Evil Sheila was the weakest link in an otherwise near-perfect movie. To this day I still can't stand when she breaks the fourth wall and says, "I may be bad, but I feel good."
If I had my choice, I'd edit that shot out of the movie. -

Just because a character happens to be looking in the direction of the camera does not mean they are breaking the fourth wall. Breaking the fourth wall is about breaking character and communicating with the audience.
The only actual breaking of the fourth wall in any Evil Dead production was in S02E02 when Ash slapped on the cologne, winked at the camera and it was accompanied by a "Ding" sound. I was thoroughly disgusted with the Writers and Director for coming up with or permitting this travesty.
