Looks like there's going to be an Evil Dead 4 flick. Apparently there aren't a whole lot of details out yet, but Bruce Campbell confirmed it is happening. He tweeted the news, so it HAS to be true. And really, would Ash lie? Sam Raimi isn't directing though, but after the Spiderman movies that may not be a bad thing. I am cautiously stoked.
He had to clarify that they're doing a remake, not a sequel... I'm curious, but not all that excited. Bruce Campbell being the star of those movies are what made them so magical. I don't know if they can find a new star that would make it work like that again.
I think remember seeing trailers for Drag Me To Hell, but I didn't realize it was a Raimi flick. I think I assumed it was another Stephen King adaptation and wrote it off. Think I'll check it out. I certainly enjoy Sam Raimi's approach to movies and TV shows, though I guess most of the stuff I've seen of his has been comically oriented. Perhaps Drag Me To Hell will help re-instill my faith in the Sam.
I hated Spider-Man 3 as much as anyone, but Drag Me To Hell was a great return to form for Raimi. I also really dig some of his older non-horror movies like A Simple Plan and The Gift.
