Raimi Talks Evil Dead 4

By Josh Tyler: 2007-05-03 03:07:19

While everyone hangs around wondering whether director Sam Raimi will show up to do a fourth Spider-Man movie, rumors have started circulating which indicate that he could switch to working on a different franchise instead. The guys over at Moviehole have picked up a story from The Herald Sun which says that Evil Dead 4 might be one of his next tasks.

The news comes directly from Raimi, who told them that Bruce Campbell may have to dust off his boomstick because he’s trying to convince his brother Ivan Raimi to write a screenplay on a new sequel to his snarky classic horror series. Ivan co-wrote the screenplay for the third Dead movie Army of Darkness and Raimi says, “we have been talking about another one, but we haven't started work on it.”

If Sam Raimi actually said it, it’s kind of hard to dismiss this as just another lame Evil Dead 4 rumor. But I wonder if perhaps this is the sort of thing he might drop in the press, just to spice things up for his impending Spider-Man 4 contract negotiations with Sony? It wouldn’t be the first time someone dangled a phantom alternate project just to get a studio to up their quote.

Evil Dead 4 should be made, but dont forget its up to Bruce and Sam. If they are fucking burned out about it, so be it. I say If Sam wants to make spiddy4 thats his choise. Fuck it they should write EVIL DEAD 4 the book.

Right now, I'd rather see an EVIL DEAD sequel then another Spiderman movie. I really think they need to take a break on those films. If there is an EVIL DEAD lV, then I hope it can be a good series closer. If it is the last one of course. Another thing, I would like to see the Chainsaw come back. army of darkness did not have it in so much. I actually would not mind if this would be like REGENERATION. Except being a sequel to army of darkness instead of Evil Dead 2. though if they plan to have it as a sequel to Evil Dead 2, then I am game.

The longer you talk about making a fourth evil dead sequel, the older Bruce Campbell will get, so make Spiderman 4 afterwards or before Evil dead 4 (2009), and give the fans their quest for evil dead 4:-) The remake isn't the real thing without the real Ash...It won't be the same if someone else takes over Bruce' role.

I have to say that the whole spidey thing is pretty much dead to me. I mean seriously what more could be done. The movies are really starting to get redundent. I mean honestly the only thing that keeps me watching is to see who Mary Jane is going to up with next.
I think that it's time to see Ash in action again, not to mention bringing Evil Dead to a whole new audience. I mean just the other day I seen a kid buying E.D. Regeneration for ps2 and talking about how kool it would be if they made a movie out of it. First of all that kids parents should be bitch slapped for not properly educating their child, but most importantly even the up and coming generations are wanting to see this movie.
In closing Spidey is a pussy and Ash is the man. I would rather have my kids have a hero like Ash to look up to rather than Spider-man anyway.
