Evil Dead: The Series coming to YouTube!

  Ok, now don't get too excited.  This is a fan made web series, not something made by the original creators of THE EVIL DEAD or anything made by a big studio.  This is a small, low budget series made by fans of the film, for fans of the film.  THE EVIL DEAD: THE SERIES looks to be more based on the recent remake than the original films, but who knows what could be in store.  Right now, the pilot episode is the only one on YouTube.   Give it a watch and let me know what you think.  Better yet, leave a comment on the YouTube video and let the makers of this series know what you think.  If you don't like it, rather than bash it on the comments, leave a comment with some constructive criticism for them.  Let them know what you liked about it and what you didn't.  It sounds like they will be taking the feedback and making it the best series they can!

THE EVIL DEAD remake is a go!!

I know a  lot of people hate horror remakes, but I personally love them.  They don't take anything away from the original...we will always have those, but they can introduce a new generation of movie watchers to some great stories and characters and even get them interested in seeing the originals if they haven't already.

I say all this because Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell have announced an official THE EVIL DEAD remake!   Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and Rob Tapert will all be producing the film with the directing duties being given to Fede Alvarez.

I am personally very excited about this.  Anything involving THE EVIL DEAD is ok in my book, even if it is not the EVIL DEAD 4 we've all been wishing for.  I am confident Sam will make sure this is a top notch film that lives up to its name.

The official EVIL DEAD game app is finally here!!

Back in November of last year, I did a post about an official EVIL DEAD game app coming out for the iPhone/iPad.  I have been waiting patiently for this game to come out, and I am proud to report that the wait is over!  I haven't heard much about this, but just happened to run across it last night while browsing the iTunes store.  The game was officially released on June 3rd and is available now from the app store!!  The iPhone version is on sale for $2.99 and the iPad app is available for $4.99.

EVIL DEAD fans....this is something you have to see!! EVIL DEAD iPhone app coming soon!

To fellow iPhone users out there, this news is HUGE! I recently read on Horrorbid.com about an EVIL DEAD iPhone app coming out soon. Well, the trailer is up and it looks like this game will be a lot of fun. It is done in somewhat of a cartoonish way.....almost looking like those LEGO Star Wars games, but it still looks like it will be very cool. I don't know anything about the actual game play, but this trailer gives us an idea of what the game will look like. Enjoy!! I will let you know if I hear an actual date on the release of this app.

Watch WITHIN THE WOODS, the film that was the basis for THE EVIL DEAD!!

Most fans of THE EVIL DEAD series have heard of WITHIN THE WOODS, but not many have seen it. I never realized it was sitting out there on Youtube for all to see so easily!! This is the film Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell, and Robert Tapert shopped around to investors in order to raise money to shoot their first feature, BOOK OF THE DEAD, or as we now know it, THE EVIL DEAD. Here is the basic plot:

A group of friends spend a weekend at a remote cabin, and one of them accidentally desecrates an Indian burial ground. This causes him to turn into a zombie, and kill off his friends. They must band together to try and survive being massacred.

Sounds somewhat familiar, huh? Thanks to Youtube user TheUltimateEvilDead for posting this! He has the film split up into 4 parts, so CLICK HERE to watch part 1 of 4. When that is done, look at the "More from: TheUltimateEvilDead" section and pick part 2 of 4 and so on until you have watched all 4 parts.

Keep in mind, this was never meant for home video release. It was shot on Super 8mm film and has aged terribly, so it is hard to watch in terms of film quality. It is like watching a VHS tape that is all crinkled up. BUT....us true EVIL DEAD fans will look past that as long as we get a chance to watch this long heard about early effort from the folks that brought us the greatest Horror trilogy of all time, THE EVIL DEAD films!!!
