Evil Dead (Spoiler Thread) - TV Series

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Holy shit.
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.

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.)

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

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?

Army of Darkness didn't happen. It's why he still has the book.

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