Unless the script was changed significantly I highly doubt Mia's brother is the new Ash.
 
Im doubting there will even be one Survivor. Two might make the film feel generous haha.

I'm bettign we'll get an ending like the original. I always assumed Ash died in the original, which is why we got the psuedo-remake opening of EDII where we see Ash become a deadite and then revert to his human form. I don't really even consider Evil Dead II a sequel, it basically ignores the first film in favor of said opening and then becoem sits own thing. Ash certainly is a different character than he is in the original film.

In oither words, I would bet one person lives, only to be attacked by the camera/ghost/fog at the end of the film.
 
So I heard this is pretty humorless?

Sounds like why I like these films in the first place.

Don't know where you heard that. But the original one was as well. Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness is where the humor was put in.

With Diablo Cody helping write the script, I have a feeling though there will be the dark humor.

You mean Sam Raimi on his bike? :D

It's actually supposed to be ¨The Evil¨, the entity that causes people to become infected/possessed by the Deadites that reside within it.

Yeah probably. Id rather they just show everyone dead then going the last scare route. Not sure but I think it was actually confirmed that Ash died in ED1.
 
Didn't Raimi and Tapert say it was because of property issues that they had to reshoot EDII, and the original intent WAS to do everything exactly the same from the first?
 
Well, I'm still in love with the originals, and I've thought this remake was a god awful idea ever since it was only in the "talking about it" stage, but the new trailer for it blew my face off.

I don't want to get my hopes up, but that trailer looked completely awesome to me. And, not having a lame Ash redo was defintely the smart way to go. I can't wait for a hi res version of that trailer.

Also, to those complaining about the lack of humor, you need to go back and watch the original. It's supposed to be a serious, scary movie. The weird, campy humor (which I also love, btw) didn't come in until Evil Dead 2, so if this remake is darker it actually is more in line with what the original was supposed to be in the first place.

Not too sure, gotta go back to those audio commentaries. All the original actors were supposed to be in ED2 but were cut for saving cash. I believe Raimi originally wanted to throw Ash back in time in pt 2 while making the ED1 though.
 
Yes, they were cut for the cash. But I think the goal was to get that footage from ED1, but they had issues and instead of reshooting it with the actors, they cut them instead to save the budget money.

And according to Tapert in the commentary, Lucy Lawless hated the tree rape scene :hehe:
 
"Where's your art film now, baby??"


This instantly shot up to the top of my must see list as of seeing the trailer yesterday. Can't wait for the hi-res one tomorrow.
 
Evil Dead would have not made it had it not been for Bruce.. He fit the movie like a glove,,, I cant see it without Ash.. I mean Ash is Evil Dead, that was the majority of appeal IMO.

Groovy
 
The one thing thats kinda cool without Ash, is that all these new characters are screwed. They would have a chance with Ash. Without him they are all ****ed.
 
The Evil Dead (2013) - Red Band Trailer on IGN.com now !!!!!!
 
Sweet!!! After seeing this clean I think the bootleg kind of added to the old school nostalgic factor in a way haha. Was hoping they would throw a lil bit of new footage besides the NYCC stuff, oh well. Still looks cool. It is all loud Bay Transformer trailer sounds and gore throw back shots. Hard to not dig it as a trailer. Love the shot of Ashs car.

Also Director confirmed zero CGI used in the film.

What kind of effects did you use to make all this gore happen?

We didn’t do any CGI, so there’s no CGI in the movie. Everything you’ll see is real. This was a very long shoot – 70 days of shooting. That’s the reason why everybody goes to CGI, because it’s cheaper, faster. But I hate that – most people hate that, particularly in a movie like this one. So we searched a lot of magic tricks and illusions, like with disappearing arms, all those kind of things. We really pushed the boundaries trying to create those illusions. There’s also a particularly bloody ending. The last scene is just – we wanted it to be the bloodiest scene ever. And I think it is!

I don't see the point of this remake at all though, are the fans even excited?
Just looks like the original except without all the charm and finesse.

Yeah i see what your saying...but evil dead is of massive cult status.. they could probably do whatever and make a buck off it.
 
That was some disgusting ****. I like Raimi and i enjoy the evil dead films for what they are...fun. This doesnt look like fun it looks like more torture porn.
