New eighteen only Evil Dead trailer
Wow, a new trailer has appeared for the Evil Dead remake and it's looking really good. The previous trailer was doing nothing more than paying homage to the original and making all the connections it could, now this trailer is setting a new path and making sure we know it is its own film.
The effects are sharp, the style is keener and bloodier, and it looks altogether darker. Of course I do wonder if we've now seen far too many set pieces from the film but it's still a great trailer.
If you wanted to be sold on the idea of a remake of The Evil Dead then this Evil Dead trailer will do it, I really do feel like that so I'd say it's worth watching.
The remake is coming to the UK on the 19th of April with a US release on the 12th. It's travelling around the world from then throughout April and May and looks set to do really well just from the list of release dates it already has lined up.
Directed by Fede Alvarez as his first feature film, it has had a number of writers with Sam Raimi delivering the original screenplay obviously and the big credits of Rodo Sayagues Mendez, Diablo Cody and Alvarez himself writing the screenplay for this remake.
The poster is billing it as the "most terrifying film you will ever experience" and frankly that's a hell of a lot to live up to, see if it begins to do that with the new trailer which, if you didn't read the title, is for adults only.
