Evil Dead is an upcoming 2013 American horror film directed by Fede Alvarez. It is a remake of the 1981 critically acclaimed cult horror film The Evil Dead written, produced, and directed by Sam Raimi, who co-wrote and produced the remake. It is the fourth installment of The Evil Dead franchise, and the first not to be directed by Raimi and star Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams. The director Fede Alvarez was hand picked by Raimi himself and it is Alvarez’s first feature film.
Raimi and Rodo Sayagues co-wrote the script, which was then rewritten by Diablo Cody. The film was produced by Raimi, Campbell and Robert G. Tapert — the producer of the original trilogy.
A remake was planned since numerous years by Raimi and Campbell, however in 2007 Campbell stated that the proposed remake was "going nowhere" and "fizzled" due to extremely negative fan reaction. However in 2011 he spoke again about the remake, stating "We are remaking Evil Dead. The script is awesome [...] The remake’s gonna kick ass — you have my word".
This remake is focusing on the roots of The Evil Dead. The Evil Dead was intended to be a serious horror film, but due to "melodramatic dialogue delivered by bad actors" said Campbell The Evil Dead seemed rather humorous. The remake will be significantly darker, disturbing, and brutally violent. The red band trailer for Evil Dead was released on October 24, 2012.
