Raimi's Back Home With Dead
Director Sam Raimi, who is producing a remake of his ghost movie Evil Dead, told SCI FI Wire that he wanted to use the original backwoods cabin from the 1981 film. "I was sad to find out that the house where we shot the original burned down, unfortunately," Raimi said in an interview at the Saturn Awards in Los Angeles on May 3. (Raimi's blockbuster Spider-Man 2 film won five awards).

Raimi is mounting a remake of Evil Dead, which marked the beginning of his career, created a cult hit and introduced Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams. The film dealt with four friends who find an evil book, the Necronomicon, which unleashes bizarre flesh-eating creatures.

Raimi said he won't direct the remake himself, but rather is seeking a new director, male or female, to develop the characters he created and retell his campfire story. He added that he won't be very hands-on when the film gets retold.

Raimi also said that the remake won't feature Campbell. The director said he'd rather put Campbell in a new Evil Dead sequel, which would continue the story from the last movie, Army of Darkness.

As for that cabin? The original 16mm Evil Dead was shot in a real abandoned cabin in the hills of Morristown, Tenn. Raimi denied rumors that he ordered the cabin burned down to keep fans from spending the night there. "It would have been great to use it again," Raimi said with a sigh.
