What retro games have an Evil Dead/Army of Darkness feel to them? Aside from the usual suspects like Doom and Blood.

Completely unexpected.

Anyway do not forgot Blood, dare I say the name. While it is not directly related, much inspiration was taken from AoD as well as other pop horror fictions.

Any mature-rated western game made in the 90s, unironically. A lot of nerdy men were literally obsessed with pulp-horror and Bruce Campbell. And since older games were primarily developed by these nerdy types, you're going to find tons of games that exude the same pulpiness present in the Evil Dead trilogy, more or less. Army of Darkness was specifically pretty huge among DnD circles.
