Here's the first image from the upcomming evil dead remake from moviehole.com.
I must admit I stayed as far away from this project as possible I'd heard they were doing this, and changed the ash character to a female and I just was not impressed. because I absolutley love the original, I didn't care for the second, which makes me in the minority but the first one was so effective and graphic and evil. I was so young the first time I saw it thinking back on it at the time, it seemd like some sort of insane collage of crazy horrific images from a horrible dreamand I just could not see NY positivitey comming from trying to replicate this within this era of over stylized hd nonsense, but I am intrugued I must admit. That pic looks awsome.
Here's discriptions of the trailer shown at NY comicon, sounds good.
Bloody Disgusting says :
"Starts with camera going into forest in the Sam Raimi POV style from the original. The group of friends uncover the cellar door, which is already smeared with blood. They open the book of the dead and it cuts again to the first person camera. He reads from the book and then everything goes crazy with quick shots. A voice over says gWefre all going to die tonighth. The dead rise from the ground, and they look amazing, wet, bloody, and scary. Cuts to a girl slicing her mouth open with a knife, then someone on fire screaming, and then to someone chopping off their arm with a chainsaw. There was a tease of Jane Levy being held by vines, slowly crawling up her legs. Cuts to a dead girl splitting her tongue in half with a rusty blade.
It honestly gave me chills because of how much promise it offers. One thingfs for sure, Fede Alvarez knows how to shoot horror.
Itfs one of the best trailers Ifve seen in years."
i09 also have their rundown of the footage :
"First, we saw the iconic cabin, which is introduced with the iconic Sam Raimi low-angle tracking shot. A group of new kids and Jane Levy push open the old cabin door, revealing leaves, dirt and a grubby cabin floor. Jane looks beat as hell and ready for her night of heroin withdraw (yes they are keeping the plot similar to the original). A trap door is discovered. A boy heads down the stairs and discovers THE NECRONOMICON! Sadly, we didnft get the money shot of the new book cover; all we saw was a book wrapped in black plastic, someone ripping into it and the familiar old pages. The character starts flipping through the Necronomicon, rubbing a pencil over the strange words. He recites the enchanted phrases. Jane lets out an insane high-pitched scream and then states, gWefre all going to die tonight.h This was already cut together pretty quickly; now things get even faster, so wefre only getting flashes of the gore. I spot a girl in the shower cutting up the sides of her mouth, while one of her cabinmates screams, gWhat are you doing?h Another girlfs arm looks like itfs covered in boils, and she takes an electric carving knife to her bicep. Someone starts up a chainsaw (the crowd goes insane at this). Cut to another girl trapped in the woods, wrapped with branches. Yep, the raping tree is back. Jane returns with white eyes, white skin and a black tongue, which she sticks out, provocatively licking an exposed knife. Slowly the knife starts splitting her tongue in half. Shefs doing this right in front the boil armed girlfs face."
