"While the TriStar and FilmDistrict remake doesn’t hit theaters until April 5, director Fede Alvarez revealed to a sold out SXSW crowd that he’s already begun writing a sequel to his Evil Dead." - bloody-disgusting.com

























































“In the much anticipated remake of the 1981 cult-hit horror film, five twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.”


The Evil Dead will be directed by Fede Alvarez. The film stars Jane Levy (Suburgatory) as Mia; Shiloh Fernandez (Deadgirl, Red Riding Hood) as David; Lou Taylor Pucci (Carriers) as Eric; Jessica Lucas (Cloverfield) as Olivia and Elizabeth Blackmore (Legend of the Seeker) as Natalie. The film will be released on April 5, 2013.

So, not exactly a date movie, then?
Giznad - 3/8/2013, 11:19 PM
sequel already? Is that decision making based on the crowd's response? If so, that's good. I'm still having not-having-Ash withdrawals.
Superguy15 - 3/8/2013, 11:22 PM
Sounds cool! Bring on more EVIL DEADS!

Is anyone surprised Devin Faraci didn't like it, that guy seems to hate everything these days.
WhiteSAMURAI22 - 3/8/2013, 11:34 PM
Seems like one if those movies i'll neither hate or like too much. Kind of like The Thing prequel.
novaprime - 3/8/2013, 11:46 PM
Wooooooooooooo Cant Fuuuukkiiinnggg waaaiittt!!!!!!!!
Giznad - 3/8/2013, 11:53 PM
So, one guy now can't sleep for days, while some girl didn't think it was scary...while a couple of girls walked out. I'm confused.
Bojac - 3/8/2013, 11:54 PM
Ok so only 1 bad twitter review, and one mild. The rest positive? Dis make me feel gud.

"The most interesting thing about EVIL DEAD is how violent it is as a studio release. That's a post-WALKING DEAD effect"..

The only moment that made me want to puke in Walking Dead was when Rick cut Hershel's leg in order to prevent the virus spreading...i never had a problem with slash/stab/shoot/ing some undead,knowing that they won't feel a thing,but cutting a living old man's leg while he's conscious??..ugghh

Hmmm not really convenced

[frick] Devin Faraci. Everything he says gives me a headache.

Keith Calder@michaeltritter "EVIL DEAD had more sirens than a Hot 97 rap remix. "

I'll see it. But if it's successful we're never going to see Evil Dead 4.
LEEE777 - 3/9/2013, 1:33 AM
I see this the way the new THE THING reboot movie did... came out and forgotten.

We need EVIL DEAD 4 Boomstick time! :p

Man, still wanted to see ol' Brucie up against FREDDY and JASON too, damn a movie that will never be : (

I hope its watchable but most reboots/remakes suck ass.

If it ain't broke, don't break it.

All I want to know is if anyone ends up in the past?
Hellsing - 3/9/2013, 3:18 AM
You naive kids do know that if this movie bombs at the BO then your not going to get your Evil Dead 4 or anything Evil Dead related.
IIIAdamantiumIII - 3/9/2013, 4:23 AM
meh a remake of a film that has been remade already....*evildead2* Not feeling this version, Myabe I'm at the age where Ive seen everything possible that you can do with horror films and they have become more of a joke than a guilty pleasure. The first evildead is sooooo bad Its really bad, the second is much better but very cheese and army of darkness is literally a comedy .
CloserPleasures - 3/9/2013, 4:43 AM
cant wait really hope please thats its good
bazinga85 - 3/9/2013, 4:44 AM
In that last little screen-clip, is she vomiting in that girl's mouth, or eating her tongue?
FreakingIntelligentRobertGriffin - 3/9/2013, 5:21 AM
My girl Jane. Love dem Jews.
LucasMend - 3/9/2013, 7:39 AM
People confuse gory with scary. Look at the first Halloween movie, god that was scary and intense. Original Evil Dead was gory, but also had much scaring elements. I bet this one is all about blood everyone, gory shit and people don't get actual scary moments, but instead this gory stuff and go all "woah I'm scared"
TheHeat - 3/9/2013, 8:05 AM
So, basically this movie is just gore-porn. Don't we have Saw for that?
TheRealRemyLebeau - 3/9/2013, 9:07 AM
Anybody can out do Sam raimis over the top cartoony movies. That's a given.
joec00l - 3/9/2013, 9:59 AM
a sequel? could that by any chance b a remake of army of darkness? or maybe theyll just remake evil dead II
AlexTheKaiser - 3/9/2013, 10:03 AM
Just as I expected, nothing more than a gorefest without story or character.
PapaMidnight - 3/9/2013, 11:08 AM
Hell yeah, baby!!! Can't wait! But i'm confused... if they'll make a sequel, then what the next Raimi's Evil Dead would be?
PapaMidnight - 3/9/2013, 11:10 AM
@TheHeat, do not confuse things: u mean torture-porn, right? No, ED is a demonic possession movie. Did you watch the original?
herofreak15 - 3/9/2013, 3:09 PM
I really doubt they'll move forward with Evil Dead IV, but it would be sweet. Super-pumped for this!
sephiroth211 - 3/9/2013, 4:10 PM






I have a huge crush on this girl...so freaking beautiful.
raccoonwithrockets - 3/9/2013, 4:20 PM
I'll pass on this along with the robocop reboot.
LEEE777 - 3/10/2013, 5:23 AM
Howz about...

No

: P
LEEE777 - 3/10/2013, 5:23 AM
Yeah ROBOCOP looks like a Robo-Turd as well.
