Evil Dead movies are can’t look away flicks! I’ll be home flipping and there’s Bruce Campbell on IFC and I’m possessed like a horror nerd. Shiloh Hernandez has been cast according to Variety. When I saw his picture I thought he could be the son of Bruce Campbell.
Fede Alvarez is directing a reboot of Sam Raimi’s cult classic. If you’ve never experienced the Evil Dead, it’s about a group of young people (like in every horror movie!) in a cabin in the woods who discovers the Book of the Dead and let loose demons they can’t control. It’s not a remake and will not feature “Ash” the lead played by the great Bruce Campbell.
If this news has you shivering to see Ash’s demonic adventures here’s a link to the Evil Dead comics published by Dark Horse Comics.
Thanks to Dark Horizons for the scoop.
