Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

No specs or features yet, but Shock Till You Drop is reporting the studio has locked in the release date already.

I'd assume at the very least we'll see an unrated cut.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

This made it out to theaters? I only remember watching the trailer online and then never seeing anything about it again.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

/\ It comes out in theatres on April 5th.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Funny. I've seen it about 4 times out of the 9 times I've gone to the movies in the past 3 months.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Surprised the Blu-ray is being announced this early especially considering the film hasn't even hit theaters yet. Unless the studio expects it to flop or something. That would sort of surprise me though since all of the early reviews make it sound like it's one of the better horror remakes.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

If this somehow comes with a Raimi/Campbell commentary...I'll buy it day one. Regardless of the film's quality.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Apparently the sequel to this is already planned, Army of Darkness 2.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

....Army of Darkness 2 is for the original ED continuity. The sequel is for this remake.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

I'd be floored if they aren't on at least one track.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Ah, poor reading on my part. I thought they were just going to completely destroy the series with crap.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Like others, I'm surprised the release date has already been mentioned.

I hope it's good!

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

I'm not surprised the home video has been announced already. If it follows typical Evil Dead video releases we shouid have at least 6 different versions by Christmas. Xage, are you ready?

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Oh shit. I forgot about xage and ED.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Definitely, especially if both are fairly no-holds-barred about what they think didn't work or wasn't in keep with the spirit of the original films.

Thus far, early word seems to be good. I'll be cautiously optimistic, probably catch it in the theater, then consider if I want to pick up the blu.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Yes Sir :) This date is now deadlock in my Calendar :)

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13

Making Life Difficult - The Intense and Physically Exhausting Creation of the Film

Being Mia - The Physical and Psychological Transformation into Evil Mia

Directing The Dead - Director Fede Alvarez re-imagines a cult horror classic

*******************************************************

Ah, well, so much for all the deleted/alt. scenes and an unrated cut the director kept yammering about. I guess they'll be keeping the ED tradition alive and at least double dipping here.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Booo on the lack of an unrated cut.

I liked this movie, but don't want to buy endless copies of it like I have the original.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Double Boo on lack of Unrated Cut.

I would buy a version that was actually scary and/or gory.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Regardless of one's fear or lack of it when watching the film. It was gory either way.

Damnit. No Bruce and Sam commentary and unrated cut? Weak offering there. I'll wait for it to go down in price.

Target will have exclusive steelbook for $25.99 available online and in-store.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

I re-watched the original last weekend (I was fortunate to see it at the theater back in 1982)......LOVE the original. That said, I enjoyed the remake and went ahead and pre-ordered.

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Didn't the director also say that it was litterlly just frames here and there to cut out to get an R rating?

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

Futureshop Canada and Target USA are getting a "Steelbook" Packaging

Re: Evil Dead (2013) -- 7/16/13
 

I think so. But as a horror fan, you know frames can have a big impact on how a kill plays out.
