A community dedicated to the Evil Dead and Army of Darkness franchise. Evil Dead Rise out now!
Groovy.
For years, reddit has existed without a home for Sam Raimi's classic franchise, Evil Dead. Come in here, and give Bruce some sugar.
It's a trick - get an axe.

I want to own the movie physically and I know the higher definition versions of the original are Inferior to the DVDs like weird edits made to remove mistakes and the beloved commentary track replaced with a less interesting one, I wanna know if there’s anything like this with the army of darkness releases or if the highest definition release is the actual best way to own it physically
I mean they both sound the same, they have a similar taste in fashion, they even both got that mean girl type personality. Not much is known about them. The way she interacts with Pablo is somewhat how Ramona interacts with Scott along various characters in Scott pilgrim vs the world. Whenever I watch Ash vs the Evil Dead series I always picture Kelly as a grittier Ramona Flowers who lost her Scott to the deadites.
I absolutely loved it. Definitely one of my favourite horror movies and up there with the best of the Evil Dead series.
The scares, the gore, the way that it felt familiar yet completely fresh and unique at the same time. Hats off to Lee Cronin and the whole crew involved.
I really liked that we got to spend time with these characters before hand, building up their relationships to each other but not too much to where it's overindulgent and boring. Then when the shit hits the fan, it REALLY hits. You worry about who's gonna go next, what brutal action will happen, and who will make it out.
The ending as well with the Frankenstein deadite that has stitched itself together, perfect. Loved Lily Sullivan as Beth throughout the film but especially in the moment where she finally gets one over the deadites and pushes them into the tree chopper thingo (it's late over here my brain no work.
Overall, I'm excited to watch this again each Halloween. It's cemented itself as one of those movies with so much rewatchabilty to it. The future of the franchise looks bright, and I hope we get to see more of Beth and Kassie. Here's hoping to an Evil Dead Rise sequel along with those spin offs!
It was just announced that Francis Galluppi will write and direct a new Evil Dead film. Now funny enough, a few days ago because I was excited for his debut movie “The Last Stop in Yuma County” I looked up interviews with him and came across this.
The guy is clearly a huge Evil Dead fan.
And I’m sure once we see “The last stop” we’ll get a better picture how perfect he is for the project. (Sam and Bruce loved it enough to hire him)
ALSO
The lead in that movie, Jim Cummings,
would make a great addition to the Evil Dead universe.
I highly recommend checking him out in “the Wolf of Snow Hollow.” Highly underrated movie.
Some critics even compare his performance to Bruce Campbell.
I’m not saying he should replace Ash (no one should) but he has the acting chops to perfectly fit in that world. Which is rare I feel.
I know it’s WAY too early to get excited but there is already so much good ingredients in this potential soup that I can’t help it.
I mean look at this awesome art, he looks menacing when he's being serious
If you’ve struggled with addiction you know it feels like a demon that destroys you and everyone around. The film’s brutality shows how brutal your addiction feels
TERROR WON!

#SamRaimi and #BruceCampbell return as producers.
Before you come at me, I love this franchise. It’s my favorite horror franchise. Have you noticed that the remake and Rise are akin to Evil Dead and Dead by Dawn respectively? The OG Evil Dead is damn near devoid of humor apart from unintentional 80s camp and is played straight. While it has dark humor moments Evil Dead (2013) is a viscous and graphic horror movie much like the original. Then take a look at Evil Dead II. Evil Dead II is a horror comedy that doesn’t have that biting meanness that the original has. Rise while graphic and shocking, still shares a lighter tone akin to Dead by Dawn. So is it safe to say the next Evil Dead movie we get will be a slapstick horror/action comedy?
Anyone watch creepshow the anthology series? Season 2 episode 1 takes place in a TV studio where someone reads from the necronomicon and people become possessed and start killing each other. Ted Raimi is in it. Neither Sam Raimi or Bruce Campbell have anything to do with it but I still think of it as canonicaly in the world of the evil dead
