welp, that was fucking awesome, only downsides were that it ended too soon and the CGI blood spatter. i can get used to the CGI, hope this other director can do this series credit.

I too wonder if the successors will stick to a Raimi-ish style and match the flavor or if they will diverge into their own interpretation.

A bit odd that this version is a direct sequel to Evil Dead 2 and can't even reference Army of Darkness because they don't have the rights to that content

My guess is they will stick to it, as they know their initial audience will be the fans of the movies and pissing them off will tank the show.

Raimi sets the tone of the show. Kinda like Scorsese doing the first Boardwalk.

Multiverse has been sortof cannon for Evil dead/ash for a while. Probably dont have the rights, but I would laugh my ass off at some Ash vs Marvel Zombies or the like references.

CGI did not bother me, it almost fits. Look at the way they filmed the fight scenes in the movies vs. hand, vs. little Ash and the latest incarnation of such. It has a fakeness that just works IMO. The other directors really should stick with the Rami style. It wouldn't be the same if they didn't.

Definitely the real deal in terms of Evil Dead. It does seem like they retconned AoD out of the mix, though.

Here is an interview with Bruce

Bruce Campbell on Ash vs. Evil Dead and Army of Darkness | Collider

Being unable to secure the rights to Army of Darkness is the reason it is being left out, nothing else
That bullshit.

Someone did the same shit with Doctor Who's 50th anniversary. Moffat thought it'd be a great idea to put the movie poster from a Doctor Who movie with Peter Cushing in from 40 years ago. The person who owned the rights wanted more money than the entire special cost to film... Fuck's sake.

Really the only things you need from the entire ED IP is:

  • Ash
  • The Necronomicon
  • Chainsaw hand
