[Kino] Evil Dead 4

[SFI]

Its all just talk, and personally that’s all I’ll believe it’ll ever be (because, as Bruce Campbell says, Raimi doesn’t NEED to do an "Evil Dead 4" he’s got bigger fish to fry), but "Spider-Man" director Sam Raimi tells The Herald Sun that he’s trying to recruit his brother Ivan to write the screenplay for a third sequel to his indy horror classic "The Evil Dead".
"I'm trying to get my brother, Ivan, to write the screenplay with me. He wrote Army of Darkness, the third one, with me and we have been talking about another one, but we haven't started work on it", says Raimi.
Interestingly enough, Raimi doesn’t mention - not one syllable - the previously announced "Evil Dead" remake. Hopefully they’ve decided to scrap that idea... it stunk to high heaven.... I can't think of anything worse. A flashy 40-million dollar do-over of a film that's main appeal lay in the fact that it was made so damn cheap? not for me.

Wenn man eins nicht braucht, dann das! Die Evil Dead Reihe ist perfekt so wie sie ist.....Das sind doch echt alles Heiden!

We caught up with Sam Raimi at the press conference for 30 Days of Night and he broke the news that although there is a ton of talk there is still really no solid plans for the Evil Dead remake, quote;

We currently don’t really have a plan for "Evil Dead.” I know I talked about finding a young filmmaker to re-imagine and remake it at some point because as Rob said to me, "Look, the movie came out in 16mm. It was a blow up to 35mm. We only had 60 prints. No one really ever saw it in the theaters. Why don’t we make a big screen movie of "Evil Dead” in 35mm with really great actors, a great director, real cameras, a great sound track.”

I thought that’s probably a good idea because it was so crudely made, a new filmmaker could do a great job. It’s just that once we said that publicly, we haven’t spent any time really looking for people. It’s been all just talk and it’s still just talk right now. I’ve been so busy. But we would like to do that at some point.

I dont like redo's remakes or whatever you call them but from time to time they do work. I suppose if anyone can pull it off its Sam Raimi. I frankly would rather though if he worked on a sequel to Army of Darkness which to me is one of the greatest films ever made, then doing an Evil Dead Remake!
