People doubted us, and with good reason. This was HUGE news. But as it turns out, we were spot on, and you heard it here first. Even cooler? More details have surfaced!
More breaking news comes from our friends at Bloody Disgusting, who have the exclusive info that this is going to be a “quasi-remake” and that a director has been named.
Check it out –
Bloody Disgusting is being told exclusively that Sam Raimi is gearing up to produce a quasi-remake of The Evil Dead, his breakthrough horror film from 1981 that starred Bruce Campbell as “Ash”, a modern day warrior who fends off resurrected deadites.
In an exclusive scoop, we’re told that Fede Alvarez (Federico Alvarez) is directing for Raimi’s Ghost House Pictures and Mandate.
Casting is already taking place in Detroit, Michigan for a “low budget” shoot before Raimi steps behind the camera for Oz: The Great and Powerful.
Below you’ll find the short film Panic Attack! that first got Alvarez noticed. Tell us what you think in our comments section.
