    Evil Dead Remake

    Apparantly the trailer for this debuts today. I hope it buys Bruce Campbell a yacht.

      At one point someone told me they thought this was going to be a movie of the musical stage version...

      But, no - as Mikey said, a remake of a remake...

        I view Evil Dead 2 as a remake and a sequel, it can work both ways.

        Love the musical.

          I actually saw Evil Dead 2 before I saw the first one. Imagine my surprise when I found it to be pretty much the first movie, only much less funny, and actually quite scary.

          I think you can look at 2 as a sequel/remake as well, IF you can accept the fact that Ash would go back to that cabin again!

            I have high hopes for this remake from this trailer. Evil Dead 1 & 2 have always been among my favorite horror movies. This looks to be more like the first Evil Dead, with elements of 2 (cutting off the hand) thrown in, and with the more serious tone that the first one had vs. the comedy horror of the 2nd. I'd rather have a 4th ED with Ash, but this will do in the meantime.

                Wow, looks pretty serious. They brought in the first movie's most notorious scene involving the trees I see.

                Call me cynical, but doesn't that kind of look like every other horror flick made in the last 10 years?

                We could use a little black humor. Maybe it's in there, but it's not in the trailer.

                  I'll have to wait until I get home from work before I can watch the trailer, but as a big Evil Dead and Bruce Campbell fan since the first ED film warped my 15 year old mind nearly 30 years ago, I am up for this.

                        I'm into it!
                        I don't think Bruce Campbell is actually in this, though. Pretty sure he was on the horror panel just to promote the film.

                          He's not in it but if it's a hit, he gets royalties.
