If anyone can get their hands on a PS2 or XBOX, I recommend Evil Dead: A Fistfull Of Boomstick (meh) and Evil Dead: Regeneration (decent). If not for the gameplay, for Bruce Campbell's voiceover work. Some of his liner's rank up there with some of the best of the films. Well perhaps not right up there, but in a comfortable nonexistant position. The games serve as a good "what-if's" after the events in the films.

The Army of Darkness comic series, from what I've seen, is quite well done.

News from Comic Con : Evil Dead update

Director Sam Raimi announced at the "Spider-Man 3" panel tonight that although he had given up on the "Evil Dead" remake - the audience seemed rather happy to hear that he was potentially off the project - he's ready to try and get it off the ground again. He believes - the audience doesn't, judging by their sighs - that a new and talented filmmaker could bring something genuinely intriguing to the concept.
