Knowing that Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi were both coming
back, you can bet we were already excited for Ash vs. Evil Dead, the upcoming series revival on Starz. But holy hell, you have
no idea how incredibly stoked we are after watching this first trailer that
debuted at San Diego Comic-Con. Holy shit. There are no words, just watch it
for yourself after the jump.
The story picks up with Ash, living in a trailer, still
working stock boy jobs, but he somehow fucked up and conjured up some more
evil. Or maybe it just happened, it doesn’t really matter how, because the
important part is that wisecracking man with the most recognizable chin in the
industry is back and kicking Deadite ass.
Here's an official synopsis:
Here's an official synopsis:
Campbell reprises his 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.
There is so much blood in this trailer, you get your first
introduction to the supporting players, like Ray Santiago, Dana DeLorenzo, Jill
Marie Jones, and Lucy Lawless kicking the living shit out of evil. But above
everything else, tonally this is absolutely perfect. This hits it just right
and feels like Evil Dead and all of the things
we love about the franchise. I can’t even talk about my favorite moments, there
are simply too many.
Watching this just makes my heart jackhammer in my chest.
Ash vs. Evil Dead debuts on Starz this Halloween. Now I just
need to figure out how to get Starz.
