Holy shit.QUOTE Starz announced today the greenlight of the network’s next original series, the long-awaited follow-up to the classic horror film franchise The Evil Dead. The project reteams the original filmmakers, director Sam Raimi, with longtime producing partner Rob Tapert and star Bruce Campbell. Titled Ash Vs. Evil Dead, the 10-episode series will see Campbell reprise his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. Yeah. I am not going to be able to avoid getting a cable package that includes Starz, now. On a side note, I am in season 6 of Burn Notice and they finally made an Army of Darkness joke at Sam Axe.

Starz. One of the few networks I don't get.

Well, that took long enough.Hopefully it wasn't too long. It's hard to imagine Bruce taking up that role again at his age. Posted by GORDON on Nov. 11 2014,05:00
I can see it. I have seen too much Sam Axe lately.

Perfect.
Posted by GORDON on Jul. 12 2015,12:45
Yeah. Time to get Starz late October.

I'm torn. Starz are the assholes behind Netflix and other services losing content. (Search the Netflix chain for more details on how they're behind consumers getting fucked over.)

Hrm.

Anyone else watching? Finding it hard to ignore the continuity of Army of Darkness, but ok so far.

I'm not saying someone ripped off Hellraiser directly but...![]() ... aside from those huge canines on the lower jaw, someone ripped off Hellraiser. Posted by Leisher on Nov. 15 2015,12:09
I've seen monsters like that in video games too.

First ep is good, doing its best to keep the style of ED2. Is there a reason Ash didn't mention going back in time after the cabin?

But that can't be because I saw it happen.

I can believe it, my fake memories of that movie are pretty crazy.And I am also associating a bunch of lines from that movie with Duke Nukem 3D, and that's just insane. Posted by GORDON on Nov. 17 2015,18:31
All caught up, I am enjoying the show, but....Is that chick detective a HORRIBLE actor, or a great actor and her character is just hitting my ear wrong? Because she seems really horrible and was cast because she has a big rack. Posted by Malcolm on Nov. 17 2015,20:28
She hasn't had as much screentime as the others. Waiting for her and Xena to get their shots.

She has had more than enough BUT MY PARTNERRRRRR moments for me to think she blew someone... a lot.... to get her part. Possibly even anal. Posted by Malcolm on Nov. 18 2015,10:37
I saw that coming from scene one. I kept hoping she would be the one to get knocked off but I knew there was no chance of that. So far, her character simply sucks. Her first sequence was bland, though, and that is entirely on her.
Posted by GORDON on Nov. 18 2015,11:14
Consider this a spoiler thread from here on out.Yeah so she comes out of the back room of the book store, and Ash is there facing down a Cenobite, and everyone tells her to stand down before she fucks everything up, so she takes a warning shot at Ash's head? I blame that on the writers, but still. WTF. Posted by Malcolm on Nov. 18 2015,12:01
She's locked behind in the book store with the deadite owner. I fully expect Xena to show up in the first five minutes of the next episode and save her. Those two will then become a couple of soft, secondary antagonists until the end of season 1. Wonder where the fuck she got the dagger from.

Posted by Malcolm on Nov. 30 2015,12:10
Ep five is done and the season is halfway through. So far I like it, but the last ep felt like the weakest so far. Looks like everyone except the main cast members do a good job of dying promptly.
Posted by Malcolm on Dec. 07 2015,22:18
Right before Xena gets dragged in the fire, the deadite calls her a double-crosser. Would explain a lot if she were more infernal than she lets on. The cop joined up with Ash after that. I thought those two would Thelma and Louise together a bit longer.
Posted by GORDON on Dec. 16 2015,10:04
I still haven't seen any evidence that the cop chick can act.
Posted by Malcolm on Dec. 16 2015,10:30
(GORDON @ Dec. 16 2015,12:04) QUOTE I still haven't seen any evidence that the cop chick can act. The thing with her and Ash feels quite forced. Xena's also back, which was a slam dunk, and she's clearly not human. Posted by Malcolm on Dec. 19 2015,19:58
(GORDON @ Dec. 16 2015,12:04) QUOTE I still haven't seen any evidence that the cop chick can act. The last ep make you happy, G? Posted by Malcolm on Jan. 02 2016,20:09
First season is done, ten eps. The ending was awesome, and then did very WTF 180 that felt like a badly forced segue to next season.
