FINALLY Some Truth Regarding 'Evil Dead 4'

I am seriously fed up with hearing about EVIL DEAD 4. Every single thing reported is completely contradictory as Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell appear to want to do a sequel, and constantly tease that it might happen, only it never goes anywhere. Even beyond that, THE EVIL DEAD remake is still collecting dust. After nearly a decade of BS, I say, put your money where your mouth is. Thankfully, Bruce Campbell appears to be on his last straw too as he has given probably the most honest answer ever to the question, "where the eff is Ash?"

During a new interview with Toyfare Magazine, Bruce Campbell finally gets sick of the "Ash" related questions and spits out a fireball of what appears to be the God-given truth.

"Look, let's cut to the chase because you keep dancing around it, " Campbell exclaims, "if you're talking about Ash coming back again., Sam Raimi has the best perspective. He says, 'Look, I can go back and do Ash vs. whoever whenever I want. I can do that when I'm 70; I don't have to do that now. Right now I'm on a fast, fat groovy rain in Hollywood.' And he's going to follow that, and he'll come back and to EVIL DEAD stuff when he's unemployed and living at the Old Director's Home."

Now that's what I call the truth. Too bad Raimi has signed on to ruin two more Spidey movies... it's going to be a long wait until he's unemployed....

You can read the full interview in Toyfare issue #136, on newsstands now.

It's all a joke to him....

Evil Dead 4 and/or a remake is like the promiseland of the horror genre... right next to Creepshow 3 (which was fucked up pretty good and proper).

Spiderman and Spiderman 2 were great but 3 suffered the same everything and the kitchen sink bloat rhat affects most third entries. When and if Sam Raimi makes a new Evil Dead it'll be awesome. In the meantime, Drag Me To Hell sounds pretty cool.

Sam Raimi is a pompous sellout and Bruce Campbell has no right getting mad at people for asking him about the franchise that made him a household name. Screw them both.

Seems like Bruce is fed up after years of the question and Raimi's empty promises. I've lost some respect for Raimi if that is how he really feels. He cares more about being a hollywood big shot sellout than giving the fans what they want. I'm at the point where Bruce should just do it without Raimi. My Name is Bruce sounds pretty much like Evil Dead except Bruce plays himself. No one wants to see a 70 year old Ash fighting zombies and erectial dysfunction.

man Sam Raimi is a dick! DO US ALL A FAVOUR & SELL ASH SO WE CAN FINaLLY!! GET FREDDY VS JASON VS ASH!!!

Raimi needs to set his character free from himself. We need somebody to buy the franchise and I feel Freddy vs Jason Vs Ash would be amazing the comic book adaptation of the script was incredible!!! Sam Raimi let everybody down. Come on lets go, it's just not worth it, let him take his ball and go home. He is no fun anyway. He can't rule teh playground anymore, well he can so screw him and his 400 mill gross per Spiderman sequel. move on let other directors do them.

I've said this on this site before, but Sam Raimi is a total sell-out and is basically giving the middle finger to his fanbase. I thought Spider-Man 2 was pretty good, but over-all the Spider-Man series is very much lacking. Spider-Man 3 was terrible, and despite what you might hear, it's not because Venom was squeezed in the movie. It was because Raimi was really unprofessional and gave jobs to his entire family, like his untalented brother who wrote the script. He basically got too powerful and killed it. And even though all the fanbase was screaming for Venom, he only gave him a few minutes of screen time then killed him in an over-the-top fashion. If he isn't gonna make Evil Dead 4 till Bruce Campbell is in his 70s then he might as well of signed off on that Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash script. That was actually GOOD. Thanks for killing it, Raimi. Bruce Campbell should really just do the movie himself because Raimi is clearly a prick.

Evil Dead 4 was recently listed on IMDB last month, so could that mean anything or were they just slow to creating a page for it?

Everyone is just too obsessed with the VS. movies! FREDDY VS. JASON sucked ass! FREDDY VS. JASON VS. ASH will sniff balls!!! Fans need to stop bitching and get this straight through their hollow skulls. Raimi is at his "fame peak". Like hell he will make an EVIL DEAD movie.

Hollywood train? Being on a decent at best TV show is Hollywood? He seems like an asshole and that's why I could care less about a fourth Evil Dead...Plus the fact Sam Raimi is making all of his films PG-13...

If hearing rumors about Evil Dead 4 is something that angers you, then you lead a truly blessed life and you should count yourself lucky. I actually have to work for a living.

Really? You guys would like to see Raimi sell off the license for "Evil Dead"? Think about what you're saying because I guarantee you, mark my words, we won't get a "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash". That’s a pipe dream. You know what will happen? Seriously, just guess. You already know the answer. We'll get a shot-for-shot remake of the original. Now, we can beat around the bush all day, but you know I'm right. I want "Evil Dead IV" as much as the next horror fanatic, but at least Raimi is making the smart decision by holding onto his creation and not placing it into the hands of someone else. After seeing "The Hitcher", "The Fog", "Black Christmas", and countless other films being raped by remakes I'm hoping that "Evil Dead" will be one of the few to stand its ground and be protected.

Spiderman 2 was good, spiderman 1 & 3 were not that good people. I probably have a favorite sam raimi film that nobody else likes as their favorite, but mine is "A Simple Plan"

Yeah, what a sell out... to be doing something he enjoys doing and making money to do it. Wow, what a jerk he is to be bringing his boyhood fantasies to life on the movie screen. What a selfish piece of crap he is to care more about what makes him happy instead of living his life according to the whims of a fickle fan-base. Why would anyone take a few million dollars to do comic book movies when they could work for peanuts by giving a bunch of fan boy gore hounds some spank material that they'd more than likely rip apart with comments about how it just didn't measure up to the previous films anyway. What a schmuck he is, right? If you ever had any thought that this wasn't the case to begin with than I have some sub-prime loan papers I could sell you... on a serious note, if they do a fourth Evil Dead movie than I honestly do want to see an old, grumpy, somewhat senile Ash come back to fight the deadites. It's really the only kind of story that would be different enough to be worth doing.

Same old crap, different year. I remember reading this same article when I first got on the internet back in 1995.

Raimi is a moron. Sorry but it's true. If ever a director sold out it was Raimi. He is all about the money now and giving into the big studios. Spidey 3 was crap, he didn't want Venom but allowed the studio to put him in there and the result was a big pile of crap. Raimi for years said no to ED4 because Army Of Darkness tanked at the box office. Big deal. That film along with the other two films and video games and action figures has made a buttload of money. ED4 would be such a massive hit but of course it's no Spider-Man. The first two Spidey films were so overrated, packed with fake looking CGI and especially now with Nolan's Batman franchise and Iron Man they look even worse. Raimi's best film in years was the little seen The Gift.
