[modage]

I see what you mean, that's precisely why I can't bring myself to renting porn.

The Evil Dead 2 I randomly never purchased a DVD replacement copy for my VHS tape.  So I'll buy this Book of Dead release, and that should balance out all things Evil Dead in my life, as I never bought the first Book of the Dead release.

Evil Dead harmony is coming for me.

EXCLUSIVE: Sam Raimi Insists Bruce Campbell And He Will Be Back For A Fourth 'Evil Dead' Film

For a few years now, there's been ample talk of revising the Sami Raimi helmed "Evil Dead" franchise with star Bruce Campbell telling MTV last Spring that a 4th installment of the horror-comedy film would not feature a younger sidekick to give it more contemporary juice as many sit-coms in the past have done so to desperately revive their ailing product. Back then, only a year ago Campbell was raring to go.

However, Campbell himself recently shed a little doubt on the project himself when he told the A/V Club that he felt there should be no more stories involving the Ash Williams protagonist he plays in the "Evil Dead" trilogy. "I think there should be an end to everything," he responded when asked whether the character of Ash is worthy of more movies. "I mean, did anyone really want 'Indiana Jones 4′? The answer is no. I've taken a poll in about seven theaters now. Of 300 people, three hands go up. You are bound to disappoint."

Sounds like Campbell might have had enough, no?

However, speaking to Sam Raimi at SXSW on the eve of the premiere of his new film, "Drag Me To Hell," the director didn't seem worried in the least and in fact laughed off Campbell's remarks and insisted the actor would still be onboard whenever they can find time to revisit the beloved cult and campy horror classics.

"He can dream all he wants. He's trying to get out of getting back in shape," he smiled. "I'm going to kick his butt in shape. I'm gonna say 'get back in the chainsaw!'"

So we asked: was this a strong hint towards the future of the "Evil Dead" series? Will we see Raimi return to that world once more?

"I hope to, yes," Raimi admitted. "Every time I say I would like to [revisit the films], people say, 'where the hell is it!?!' But I'm just glad people are still interested. But yes, I would really like to do [another 'Evil Dead' film]. I've just got a commitment to make 'Spider-Man 4' right now though."

Could Ash Williams just have been pulling the Onion publication's chain or just been in a mood? Raimi, who's palpably fond of Campbell, says the actor is gruff on the outside, but a sweetheart at the end of the day. "He's a really nice, but he pretends that he's a really rough bastard," he laughed.

BY THE DEADLINE TEAM
   
So says Fede Alvarez, the Uruguayan director who helmed Sony's TriStar/FilmDistrict/Ghost House #1 box office hit Evil Dead remake earlier this year. Asked if he'd be directing Army Of Darkness 2, a sequel to 1992′s time-traveling Evil Dead threequel, he Tweeted that it'll be original Evil Dead maestro Raimi in the director's chair. Bruce Campbell has been talking up the Army of Darkness sequel lately and is expected to reprise his iconic demon-slaying Ash role. Alvarez instead has been working on Evil Dead 2 which he announced at his Evil Dead SXSW premiere in March. Just last month he also lined up Universal's video game adaptation Dante's Inferno. Alvarez and Campbell previously teased that the two parallel Evil Dead franchises could lead to a crossover picture starring reboot heroine Mia (Jane Levy) and Campbell's Ash.

Breaking news this Monday afternoon as Variety reports that Starz has ordered a follow-up series to the cult The Evil Dead film franchise, titled "Ash vs. Evil Dead"!

The new show will reteam director Sam Raimi with longtime producing partner Rob Tapert and star Bruce Campbell, who will reprise his iconic 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.

"When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons — personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its "Evil" grip."

The series is slated for 10 half-hour episodes set to debut in 2015.

"Starz first worked with Sam and Rob on 'Spartacus,' and we are thrilled to be back in business with them," said Carmi Zlotnik, Managing Director of Starz. "With Sam writing and directing and Bruce Campbell returning to the screen, we are certain the show will give 'Evil Dead' fans around the world the fix they've been craving."

" 'Evil Dead' has always been a blast. Bruce, Rob, and I are thrilled to have the opportunity to tell the next chapter in Ash's lame, but heroic saga. With his chainsaw arm and his 'boomstick,' Ash is back to kick some monster butt. And brother, this time there's a truckload of it," said Raimi.

"I'm really excited to bring this series to the 'Evil Dead' fans worldwide — it's going to be everything they have been clamoring for: serious deadite ass-kicking and plenty of outrageous humor," said Campbell.

"Starz has always been a great creative partner and we are excited to be working with them on this project," added Robert Tapert.

Raimi will direct the first episode as well as serving as executive producer alongside Tapert and Campbell. "Ash Vs. Evil Dead" was written by Sam Raimi, Ivan Raimi and Tom Spezialy. Ivan Raimi will co-executive produce and Aaron Lam will serve as producer.
