A definite no on this one. No remake of it at any cost.

A 4th one... I'm not that sure, but the way I see things moving, it's a strong possibility we see one coming soon.

Why...?

1 - Bruce Campbell's book came out and gave him a place under the spotlight.
2 - Sam Raimi's on a roll...
3 - They let out all sort of stupid rumors out there, like a Freddy VS Jason VS Ash movie possibility... Ridiculous
4 - Ash is a big seller with toys and figures.
5 - It's now more "politicaly correct" to make horror movies than in the late 90's where we saw a slow down in the genre.

So because all of these reasons, producers could grab some good money out of it, then all they need is a script now. be on the lookout for a next installment in this serie. Let's just hope it won't be a totaly rotten one...

I'm going to have to say no. What is the remake going to do? Have up to date graphics and sound, but different actors/actresses? It's fine the way it is. Older graphics and sound actually add to the creepiness to me. I hate remakes, fuck remakes.

The movie's a trilogy! It's done! Nothing to worry about though. I Sam Raimi would even think about making another.

should the evil dead be remade?
 

HELL NO!!!..NO WAY!!!..NEVER!!!..NOT IN THIS LIFETIME..OR ANY OTHER FOR THAT MATTER..THE EVIL DEAD AND ITS SEQUELS..ESPECIALLY DEAD BY DAWN..ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE HORROR MOVIES.. ANY REMAKE(S) WOULD BE AN INSULT AND SHEER INSANITY...AS WAS SAID EARLIER IN THIS THREAD..DONT TAMPER WITH PERFECTION!!!HOWEVER...JUST POSSIBLY.. A PART 4 WITH BRUCE CAMPBELL,COULD BE INTERESTING..MAYBE..!!!

hell no , man come on you really want to fuck up a good thing dont you?
I'LL SWALLOW YOUR SOUL
SWALLOW YOUR SOUL
SWALLOW YOUR SOUL

Well..better an Evil Dead 4 than a Jason vs Freddie vs Ash..in my opinion..it just wouldnt work and I hope they dont make it.

Remake EVIL DEAD?

God, no - but in reality it will happen within the next decade, just as remakes of THE EXORCIST, HALLOWEEN and FRIDAY THE 13TH will happen once they run out of sequel ideas.

Best thing with horror "re-imaginings" is simply to avoid them - THE THING is the only one of any real worth (though having said that, Van Sant's frame-by-frame remake of PSYCHO wasn't bad at all - too bad the critics couldn't prise their tongues from Hitchcock's dead ass for long enough to see that).

USA big budget remake of THE VANISHING, anyone? Sickening thing about that one was, the original's director was attached...

don't forget nightwatch...

Not no, BUT HELL FUCKING NO!!!!!!!:mad:

The NIGHTWATCH remake wasn't too bad, though Bornedal did clean up some of the more blasphemous, necrophelic and dubious pornographic elements for the Amercian audience.

only if, they used bruce cambell. then only maybe ubt nah i think it would be great if they had bruce cambell. but idoubt if it would be as good though

i agree ... never ever remake this film... to me though.. i kind of consider evil dead 2 to be evil dead with a better budget... and a lot of people seem to like evil dead 2 better because of this reason... for me.. i love them both to death... evil dead 1 because it was the original story and was so rich in content...

army of darkness i also love...

i really really really want to see an evil dead 4 come about... sam raimi and bruce campbell

an Evil Dead 4 could be interesting..but hell no.The original should NEVER be remade.

By all the Gods.....NEVER!!....NO! Don't even give somebody that idea.

Re: should THE EVIL DEAD be remade?
 

No.

Only about a year late on that one.

yeah. well if its a continuation of the series. with cambell and raimi, then i would love to see that. i agree with ya on the other 3 being excellent. but iwould sorta like to see four with a bit more horror in it. but still have a comedic edge to it. it'll be great stuff. but i wouldn't be suprised if they did a remake though, cause they know it would make a ton of bucks at the box office. because even a ardent fan of the series who is totally against a remake would most likely still go an see it. as would i..

Well that's it, isn't it?

Even if we all did not sell out and give money to the fatcat producers of remakes, the mainstream audience these movies are targetted at will provide more than enough revenue to justify pilfering the originals.

The underground is only the underground so long as it stays there - if the moneymen see potential in dragging cult and obscure concepts topside, there is nothing the fans can do to stop it.

If only a "re-imagining" of a classic could prove to be even more hard-hitting and of an aquired taste than the original... watching a teen audience vomit and run for the exits during the remake of THE NEW YORK RIPPER - now THAT would be funny...!

Still won't get me anywhere near the new Dawn, TCM or 'Salem's Lot, though.

The question is so damn stupid that I am refusing to answer... :rolleyes: Anyone that actually thinks they should ever even consider re-making Evil Dead needs to be beaten down and left in a gutter.

As for Evil Dead 4, here's the link to Bruce Campbell's Website.

It's not ever going to happen. :rolleyes:

"Still won't get me anywhere near the new Dawn, TCM or 'Salem's Lot, though."
i know what ya mean. rarely is the remake as good as the original. but i still get suckered into seeing the remakes, i don't know why. at least i wait for it to come out on dvd or something.:rolleyes: i can understand them remaking a older movie that basicly had a real good idea storyline etc, but was poorly made. but i think if a classic was done right the first time like evil dead was they should leave it. the thing that i'm so jealous of. is that there is some highly paid wanker driving around hollywood in some fancy smancy car, meeting all those famous chicks, and getting paid big money. and for what..? sfa thats what. i think a typical scene in his day would go something like
big wig producer " mmmm i need a idea for a movie something fresh."
little wig producer " um how about we remake a classic movie?"
big wig producer " hey! great idea heres 90, million bucks"
little wig producer" ugh only 90 million..? that wont leave much after all the cgi i'll need. i know ill hire some drunken hack to rewrite the screen play, and hire some noone name talentless actors. and aim it at the teen market, those dumb fucks will think its the best thing since sliced bread. omg i smell a mtv award coming on.
