revealed quite a lot as to where the film was heading and what to expect. He told a news outlet ”We realize the mistakes not to make. As a fan, he know that he shouldn’t mess with certain elements of the original. And that the movie could not be done ONLY for the fans.
Regarding casting for the film Alvarez states; “..nobody wants to see a celebrity in a remake like this,” He goes on to say that the only recognisable face in the film will be Bruce Campbell, but, it will be a cameo towards the end.
Alvarez’s opportunity came this past February when he presented Sam Raimi with a script which detailed a remake of The Evil Dead, a film that focused more on terrorizing than on humor and with noticeable digital effects. Alvarez mentions that shooting will take place later this year.
Interesting!! I loved the original when it came out, it frightened the life out of me! I'd probably laugh watching it now. With the better special effects nowadays it could be a very good film.
ReplyDeleteWhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?! I know Evil Dead was supposed to be scary, but come on, seeing Bruce Campbell get hit in the face with a flood of blood from a broken pipe...I don't know man. It's unnecessary to remake this, like the remake of nightmare on elm street, what a load of crap.
ReplyDeleteY'know I don't think I have managed to see the original in its entirety.
