Bruce Campbell Has Seen The New ?Evil Dead? And Says ?It?s Fabulous?! | | Bloody DisgustingBloody Disgusting

Now Campbell confirms to Digital Spy that he?s seen the movie ? and that he knows why you?re probably concerned ? but that it?s all groovy baby! ?it?s going to take a bit to get the ?Evil Dead? fans behind it. We know we?ve pissed a lot of them off. We appreciate that and we appreciate their anger and their zeal, but the only thing we want to impress upon them is that we didn?t screw it up. This is going to be just as memorable as [the original] Evil Dead without being the same movie? You don?t want to remake something shot-for-shot. I can?t believe they remade ?Psycho? ? what the hell kind of a waste of celluloid is that? It?s a creative medium. The nice thing is the film looks beautiful. The effects are 10 times better than we ever had access to and the actors are all better than we were in 1979. Though granted Sam Raimi is a mad genius, so we got a crazy result like Evil Dead out of this amateur enthusiasm sort of thing.?

The film is due in theaters on April 12th, 2013. I was onset recently and while I can?t say much ? I don?t think you should worry either. And head inside for more quotes from Campbell! He goes on to talk a little bit about the film?s structure and how it differs from the original.

On how it?s different from the original. ?There?s none of the original characters. We didn?t want to compare apples with apples. It?s a contemporary movie ? just like Evil Dead was contemporary in 1979, this is contemporary for young adults now. It?s basically five new kids who are going to have a really bad night with a brand new director ? Fede Alvarez, who was handpicked by Sam Raimi. I?ve seen it already; I think it?s definitely fabulous.?

Will he be making a cameo? ?I?m not at liberty to discuss that. But the thing is we want it to be a standalone movie. You?re going to have some references [to the original] in there and there?s going to be things the fans will enjoy as far as familiar aspects, but it?s a whole new ball game.?

Grain of salt. This sounds like lip service to me. What's he gonna say? That it sucks out loud?
 
Sam Raimi Talks THE EVIL DEAD and POLTERGEIST Remakes | Collider

Collider: One of the great things about your Evil Dead movies is that you weren’t afraid to show blood and gore. Will the remake be as bloody, or is it more of a PG-13 release?


SAM RAIMI: It’s really bloody. It’s so bloody, it will make your head spin. I’ve seen almost all the dailies and they’re really going for it. It’s gonna be grisly and intense and non-stop.

Does that mean it will have to be R-rated then?

Raimi: Definitely R. Maybe worse.

I am sooooooo not buying this. I think the Robocop remake has more potential
 
Eli Roth Gives THANKSGIVING Update; Promises He Will Turn the GRINDHOUSE Trailer Into a Movie | Collider

“Dude, it’s gonna happen. I’m working with the CLOWN writers on it. We have a call scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Jeff Rundell, my co-writer and I have a very extensive treatment. We finally cracked the story and how to make it really really scary, and the reason to do it, and I’m really excited about it. So the CLOWN script was one of the best scripts I’ve ever read, and we’re like ‘before Jon [Watts] shoots CLOWN, he has a window.’ Chris Ford, who’s movie ROBOT & FRANK just opened… Chris and John are going to write the screenplay with me and my partner Jeff, so we’ll have a screenplay soon.”
