Sam Raimi wants to do another one finally. After "Ash vs Evil Dead", season 3, Bruce Campbell said he's retiring from the role of Ash forever. Raimi says he'll try to talk him into another film, and if he can't, he'll try to do Evil Dead 2 in the remake-verse with Fede Alvarez, but if he's too high in demand, he has a third option. He says we'll hear more in the next six months. http://www.darkhorizons.com/sam-raimi-teases-another-evil-dead-film/
Yeah, well, that ended up being 11 months!! Jesus tapdancing Christ!! "Evil Dead Now", is the title. Lee Cronin who directed “The Hole in the Ground”, is the director. The pattern for the sequels going forward is rotating heroes will find the book. The next one will be female. (Did Jane Levy not want to come back as Mia?? *Googles* oh, shit, she's Zoey on "Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist!" ) https://www.darkhorizons.com/lee-cronin-to-helm-evil-dead-now/
Article makes it sound like Bruce Campbell has some serious involvement in the new Evil Dead film. Interesting.
Now the title is "Evil Dead Rise", and there's going to be a new setting, they're not doing the cabin anymore. https://www.darkhorizons.com/campbell-offers-new-evil-dead-film-details/
Says Bruce Campbell at a recent drive-in showing of ED1,"The Evil Dead are going to fuck up a city this time". So, there you go. A whole city full of Deadites. Like Dario Argento's "Demons". But with a female Ash.
The teaser for the trailer? Sam Raimi can fuck the fuck right off for allowing the studio to pull this kind of bullshit.
The scene with the eggs. Have you seen the price of eggs lately? Eggs were almost $5 for a dozen last time I stopped at the grocery store by me!
Lee Cronin has a good theory that canonizes the non-Ash movies. The multiple copies of the Necronomicon in "Army Of Darkness". To quote him... “In one of the early meetings I had with Sam Raimi, I said, ‘You know the way in ‘Army Of Darkness,’ there’s three [Necronomicons]? You had one, Fede had one, I’m going to take the other one.’ So, there you go! https://www.darkhorizons.com/evil-dead-rise-explores-necronomicon-lore/
