movies
1:35

new

Linda

now
1:42
some
1:42
random
1:43
old
1:43
lady
1:43
in
1:43
the
1:43
basement
1:44

1:44
definitely
1:45
wasn't
1:45
there

the
2:10
Verbal
2:10
Diorama
2:11
entry
2:11
for
2:12
Halloween
2:12
and
2:12
it's
2:13
a
2:13
doozy.
2:14
After
2:14
last
2:15
week's
2:15
episode
2:16
on
2:16
the
2:16
Evil
2:16
Dead,
2:17
I
2:17
plan
2:17
to
2:17
take
2:18
this
2:18
week
2:18
off,
2:18
mostly
2:19
due
2:19
to
2:19
the
2:19
Independent
2:20
Podcast
2:20
Awards
2:21
and
2:21
being
2:21
down
2:21
in
2:21
London.
2:22
I
2:22
simply
2:23
took
2:23
my
2:23
laptop
2:23
down
2:24
to
2:24
London
2:24
and
2:24
worked
2:25
on
2:25
this
2:25
episode
2:26
during
2:26
the
2:26
downtime
2:27
that
2:27
I
2:27
had.
2:27
And
2:28
I've
2:28
worked
2:28
on
2:28
it
2:28
whenever
2:29
I
2:29
had
2:29
a
2:29
spare
2:29
moment
2:30
to
2:30
do
2:30
so,
2:31
because
2:31
what
2:31
else
2:32
do
2:32
you
2:32
do?
2:32
For
2:32
one
2:32
of
2:33
the
2:33
greatest
2:33
sequels
2:34
ever
2:34
made
2:35
and
2:35
one
2:35
of
2:35
the
2:35
most
2:35
fun
2:36
horror
2:36
movies
2:37
of
2:37
all
2:37
time.
2:38
Groovy.
2:40
Here's
2:40
the
2:40
trailer
2:41
for
2:41
Evil
2:41
Dead
2:42
2.
4:09
Ash
4:09
Williams
4:10
takes
4:10
his
4:10
girlfriend
4:11
Linda
4:11
to
4:11
a
4:11
secluded
4:12
cabin
4:12
in
4:12
the
4:12
woods
4:13
where
4:13
he
4:13
plays
4:14
back
4:14
Professor's
4:15
tape
4:15
recorded
4:15
reciting
4:16
of
4:16
passages
4:17
from
4:17
the
4:17
Book
4:17
of
4:18
the
4:18
Dead.
4:18
The
4:19
spell
4:19
conjures
4:19
up
4:19
an
4:20
evil
4:20
force
4:20
from
4:20
the
4:21
woods
4:21
which
4:21
turned
4:22
Linda
4:22
into
4:22
a
4:22
monstrous
4:23
Deadite
4:24
and
4:24
threatens
4:24
to
4:25
do
4:25
the
4:25
same
4:25
to
4:25
Ash.
4:26
When
4:26
the
4:26
Professor's
4:27
daughter
4:27
and
4:27
her
4:28
entourage
4:28
show
4:28
up
4:29
at
4:29
the
4:29
cabin.
4:29
The
4:29
night
4:30
turns
4:30
into
4:30
a
4:31
non
4:31
stop,
4:31
grotesquely
4:32
comic
4:33
battle
4:33
with
4:33
Chainsaw
4:34
and
4:34
Shotgun
4:35
on
4:35
one
4:35
side,
4:36
demon
4:36
horde
4:37
and
4:37
Flying
4:37
Eyeball
4:38
on
4:38
the
4:38
other.
4:39
Let's
4:39
run
4:40
through
4:40
the
4:40
cast.
4:40
We
4:40
have
4:41
Bruce
4:41
Campbell
4:42
as
4:42
Ash
4:42
Williams,
4:43
Sarah
4:43
Berry
4:44
as
4:44
Annie
4:44
Knowby,
4:45
Dan
4:46
Hicks
4:46
as
4:47
Jake
4:47
Kassie
4:48
Wesley
4:48
as
4:49
Bobby
4:49
Jo,
4:50
Denise
4:50
Bixler
4:51
as
4:51
Linda,
4:52
and
4:52
Richard
4:52
Domeier
4:53
as
4:53
Ed
4:54
Getley.
4:55
Evil
4:55
Dead
4:56
2
4:56
was
4:56
written
4:56
by
4:57
Sam
4:57
Raimi
4:57
and
4:58
Scott
4:58
Spiegel
4:59
and
4:59
was
4:59
directed
5:00
by
5:00
Sam
5:00
Raimi
5:02
in
5:02
the
5:02
last
5:02
episode
5:03
on
5:03
the
5:03
Evil
5:03
Dead.
5:04
Go
5:04
listen
5:04
if
5:05
you
5:05
haven't
5:05
yet.
5:06
The
5:06
story
5:06
was
5:06
mostly
5:07
about
5:07
a
5:07
young,
5:07
scrappy
5:08
team
5:08
of
5:08
filmmakers
5:09
with
5:09
a
5:09
limited
5:10
budget
5:10
making
5:11
something
5:11
that
5:11
in
5:12
the
5:12
end
5:12
became
5:12
a
5:13
bit
5:13
of
5:13
a
5:13
nightmare
5:13
production.
5:14
I
5:14
insist
5:15
you
5:15
listen,
5:16
because
5:16
a
5:16
lot
5:16
of
5:17
the
5:17
story
5:17
goes
5:18
straight
5:18
into
5:18
this
5:18
one
5:19
and
5:19
a
5:19
lot
5:19
of
5:19
the
5:19
team
5:19
reprise
5:20
their
5:20
roles
5:20
on
5:21
the
5:21
crew,
5:21
and
5:22
it
5:22
is
5:22
worth
5:22
knowing
5:23
the
5:23
background
5:23
to
5:23
the
5:24
story.
5:25
But
5:25
even
5:25
during
5:26
post
5:26
production
5:26
on
5:27
the
5:27
Evil
5:27
Dead,
5:28
Irvin
5:28
Shapiro,
5:29
the
5:29
guy
5:29
who
5:29
masterminded
5:30
the
5:30
distribution
5:31
and
5:31
release,
5:32
suggested
5:32
the
5:32
idea
5:33
of
5:33
a
5:33
sequel
5:33
to
5:34
Sam
5:34
Raimi,
5:34
who
5:35
mulled
5:35
it
5:35
over
5:36
and
5:36
decided
5:36
he
5:36
didn't
5:37
want
5:37
to
5:37
do
5:37
another
5:38
Cabin
5:38
in
5:38
the
5:38
woods
5:39
movie.
5:39
And
5:39
working
5:40
with
5:40
screenwriter
5:40
Sheldon
5:41
Lettich,
5:42
Raimi
5:42
settled
5:43
on
5:43
a
5:43
story
5:43
in
5:43
which
5:44
ash
5:44
was
5:44
sucked
5:45
through
5:45
a
5:45
time
5:45
portal
5:46
to
5:46
medieval
5:47
times
5:47
to
5:47
fight
5:48
Deadites
5:48
in
5:48
the
5:49
year
5:49
1300.
5:50
If
5:50
that
5:51
sounds
5:51
a
5:51
little
5:51
familiar,
5:52
the
5:52
resulting
5:53
screenplay
5:53
was
5:53
called
5:54
Evil
5:54
Dead
5:54
2,
5:55
Evil
5:55
Dead
5:56
and
5:56
the
5:56
army
5:56
of
5:57
Darkness,
5:57
and
5:58
Shapiro
5:58
even
5:59
put
5:59
an
5:59
ad
5:59
in
5:59
the
5:59
trades
6:00
announcing
6:00
it
6:00
was
6:01
in
6:01
production
6:01
in
6:02
May
6:02
1984.
6:03
But
6:04
both
6:04
Universal
6:05
and
6:05
20th
6:05
Century
6:05
Fox
6:06
passed
6:06
on
6:06
the
6:06
idea,
6:08
so
6:08
it
6:08
was
6:08
shelved
6:09
in
6:09
favour
6:10
of
6:10
Crimewave.
6:11
Crimewave
6:13
wasn't
6:13
a
6:13
hit,
6:14
though.
6:14
It
6:14
struggled
6:15
both
6:15
critically
6:16
and
6:16
commercially,
6:17
and
6:17
Sam
6:17
Raimi
6:18
didn't
6:18
want
6:18
to
6:18
be
6:18
known
6:19
as
6:19
that
6:19
horror
6:20
guy.
6:20
But
6:20
work
6:21
is
6:21
work
6:21
and
6:21
their
6:22
careers
6:22
were
6:22
lagging
6:23
after
6:23
Crimewave
6:24
made
6:24
no
6:24
waves.
6:25
Evil
6:25
Dead
6:26
2
6:26
would
6:26
be
6:26
the
6:26
perfect
6:27
movie
6:27
to
6:27
cushion
6:28
their
6:28
careers.
6:29
Raimi,
6:29
Bruce
6:30
Campbell
6:30
and
6:30
Rob
6:31
Tapert
6:31
as
6:31
Renaissance
6:32
Pictures
6:33
contacted
6:33
Crimewave's
6:34
distributors,
6:35
Embassy
6:36
Home
6:36
Entertainment,
6:37
to
6:37
hash
6:37
out
6:37
a
6:38
deal,
6:38
but
6:38
that
6:38
stalled
6:39
for
6:39
five
6:39
months.
6:40
So
6:40
they
6:40
decided
6:41
to
6:41
interview
6:41
potential
6:42
cast
6:42
and
6:42
crew,
6:43
one
6:43
of
6:43
whom
6:44
was
6:44
also
6:45
working
6:45
on
6:45
Maximum
6:46
Overdrive.
6:47
And
6:47
just
6:47
like
6:47
Last
6:48
Episode,
6:48
Stephen
6:49
King
6:49
swoops
6:50
in
6:50
to
6:50
save
6:50
the
6:51
day
6:51
because
6:52
Maximum
6:52
Overdrive
6:53
was
6:53
his
6:53
directorial
6:54
debut
6:55
and
6:55
it
6:55
was
6:55
being
6:56
Filmed
6:56
at
6:56
the
6:56
De
6:57
Laurentiis
6:57
Studios
6:58
in
6:58
Wilmington,
6:58
North
6:59
Carolina
7:00
for
7:00
DEG,
7:01
the
7:01
De
7:02
Laurentiis
7:02
Entertainment
7:03
Group
7:03
headed
7:04
by
7:04
of
7:04
course,
7:05
Dino
7:05
De
7:05
Laurentiis.
7:07
King
7:07
had
7:07
a
7:08
multi
7:08
picture
7:08
deal
7:08
with
7:09
De
7:09
Laurentiis,
7:09
and
7:10
King
7:10
advocated
7:11
for
7:11
the
7:11
Renaissance
7:12
Pictures
7:12
team
7:13
on
7:13
their
7:13
Evil
7:14
Dead
7:14
sequel
7:14
to
7:15
De
7:15
Laurentiis.
7:16
The
7:16
Renaissance
7:16
Pictures
7:17
team
7:17
knew
7:17
De
7:18
Laurentiis
7:18
was
7:18
Italian
7:19
and
7:19
that
7:20
the
7:20
Evil
7:20
Dead
7:20
had
7:20
been
7:21
huge
7:21
in
7:21
Italy.
7:22
So
7:22
they
7:22
collected
7:23
information
7:23
on
7:24
the
7:24
Italian
7:24
box
7:24
office
7:25
and
7:25
took
7:25
it
7:26
with
7:26
them
7:26
to
7:26
the
7:26
meeting
7:27
they
7:27
had
7:27
arranged
7:28
with
7:28
Dino
7:28
De
7:28
Laurentiis.
7:30
It
7:30
took
7:30
20
7:31
minutes
7:31
to
7:31
secure
7:32
a
7:32
deal
7:32
for
7:32
the
7:32
second
7:33
Evil
7:33
Dead
7:33
movie
7:34
with
7:34
Dino
7:35
De
7:35
Laurentiis,
7:36
a
7:36
$3.6
7:37
million
7:38
deal,
7:38
a
7:38
little
7:38
less
7:39
than
7:39
the
7:39
team
7:39
wanted,
7:40
but
7:40
De
7:40
Laurentiis
7:41
stipulated
7:42
he
7:42
wanted
7:42
a
7:42
movie
7:43
like
7:43
the
7:43
Evil
7:44
Dead
7:44
and
7:44
not
7:45
Raimi's
7:46
army
7:46
of
7:46
Darkness
7:46
idea,
7:47
and
7:48
the
7:48
Evil
7:48
Dead
7:48
sequel
7:49
had
7:49
to
7:50
be
7:50
R
7:50
rated.
7:52
But
7:52
at
7:52
least
7:52
this
7:53
time
7:53
they
7:53
wouldn't
7:53
be
7:53
flying
7:54
by
7:54
the
7:54
seat
7:54
of
7:54
their
7:54
pants
7:55
not
7:55
knowing
7:55
where
7:56
their
7:56
next
7:56
chunk
7:56
of
7:57
money
7:57
was
7:57
coming
7:57
from.
7:58
They
7:58
had
7:58
$3.6
7:59
million
8:00
and
8:01
Raimi
8:01
set
8:01
to
8:01
work
8:02
on
8:02
a
8:02
script
8:02
with
8:03
his
8:03
longtime
8:03
friend
8:04
and
8:04
within
8:04
the
8:05
woods
8:05
co
8:05
star
8:05
Scott
8:06
Spiegel.
8:07
Sam
8:07
Raimi
8:08
at
8:08
the
8:08
time
8:08
lived
8:09
in
8:09
Silver
8:09
Lake,
8:10
Los
8:10
Angeles
8:10
with
8:10
Joel
8:11
and
8:11
Ethan
8:11
Cohen,
8:12
Frances
8:12
McDormand,
8:13
Kathy
8:14
Bates
8:14
and
8:14
Holly
8:15
Hunter.
8:15
And
8:16
that
8:16
is
8:17
basically
8:17
a
8:18
who's
8:18
who
8:18
of
8:18
Hollywood.
8:19
And
8:19
those
8:20
are
8:20
the
8:20
sorts
8:20
of
8:20
remains
8:21
that
8:21
you
8:21
want.
8:22
Evil
8:22
Dead
8:23
2
8:23
aka
8:24
Evil
8:24
Dead
8:24
2
8:25
Dead
8:25
by
8:25
dawn
8:26
is
8:26
part
8:26
remake,
8:27
part
8:27
sequel.
8:28
A
8:28
recall,
8:29
if
8:29
you
8:29
will,
8:30
simultaneously
8:30
recaps
8:31
the
8:31
first
8:31
movie
8:32
whilst
8:32
also
8:33
following
8:33
on
8:33
from
8:33
it.
8:34
Originally
8:35
the
8:35
plan
8:35
was
8:36
to
8:36
reuse
8:36
the
8:37
footage
8:37
from
8:37
the
8:37
Evil
8:38
Dead
8:38
with
8:39
Ash
8:39
and
8:39
Linda,
8:40
plus
8:40
Cheryl,
8:41
Scott
8:41
and
8:42
Shelley
8:42
included,
8:43
but
8:43
there
8:43
was
8:43
a
8:44
problem
8:44
with
8:44
the
8:44
rights.
8:46
Because
8:46
the
8:46
Evil
8:46
Dead
8:47
was
8:47
sold
8:47
by
8:47
Irvin
8:48
Shapiro's
8:48
company,
8:49
Films
8:49
around
8:49
the
8:50
World
8:50
to
8:50
around
8:51
50
8:51
different
8:51
distributors
8:52
around
8:53
the
8:53
globe.
8:54
They
8:54
would
8:54
need
8:54
to
8:54
obtain
8:55
clearance
8:55
from
8:56
each
8:56
one
8:56
for
8:57
that
8:57
territory.
8:58
Some
8:58
had
8:59
gone
8:59
out
8:59
of
8:59
business
8:59
in
9:00
the
9:00
preceding
9:00
four
9:01
years,
9:01
so
9:02
it
9:02
was
9:02
easier
9:02
and
9:03
cheaper
9:03
to
9:03
reshoot
9:04
the
9:04
recap
9:05
and
9:05
reduce
9:05
the
9:06
number
9:06
of
9:06
characters
9:07
to
9:07
just
9:07
Ash
9:08
and
9:08
his
9:08
girlfriend
9:09
Linda.
9:10
Betsy
9:11
Baker
9:11
was
9:11
contacted
9:12
and
9:12
they
9:12
met
9:13
with
9:13
her
9:13
to
9:13
reprise
9:14
the
9:14
role
9:14
of
9:14
Linda.
9:15
However,
9:16
she
9:16
was
9:16
pregnant
9:17
with
9:17
her
9:17
first
9:17
child
9:17
at
9:18
the
9:18
time,
9:19
so
9:19
instead
9:19
they
9:20
decided
9:20
to
9:20
recast
9:21
the
9:21
role.
9:22
Linda
9:22
was
9:23
also
9:23
recast
9:23
in
9:23
army
9:24
of
9:24
Darkness
9:24
with
9:25
none
9:25
other
9:25
than
9:25
Bridget
9:26
Fonda,
9:26
so
9:27
the
9:27
series
9:27
remains
9:28
inconsistent
9:28
on
9:29
Linda
9:29
as
9:30
well
9:30
as
9:30
inconsistent
9:31
between
9:31
recollections
9:32
of
9:32
events
9:33
because
9:33
the
9:33
recap
9:34
isn't
9:34
the
9:34
same
9:34
as
9:35
the
9:35
Evil
9:35
Dead.
9:36
But
9:36
again,
9:36
this
9:36
isn't
9:37
a
9:37
series
9:37
known
9:37
for
9:38
its
9:38
continuity.
9:39
Ash
9:40
destroys
9:41
the
9:41
Book
9:41
of
9:41
the
9:41
Dead
9:41
at
9:42
the
9:42
end
9:42
of
9:42
the
9:42
Evil
9:42
Dead
9:43
in
9:43
a
9:43
fire,
9:43
but
9:44
it's
9:44
remarkably
9:44
burn
9:45
free
9:45
in
9:45
this
9:46
movie.
9:46
Not
9:46
to
9:47
mention
9:47
the
9:47
sudden
9:47
appearance
9:48
of
9:48
Henrietta
9:49
Knowby
9:49
in
9:50
the
9:50
cellar.
9:51
While
9:51
the
9:52
budget
9:52
was
9:52
much
9:52
higher
9:53
than
9:53
they
9:53
had
9:53
for
9:53
the
9:54
Evil
9:54
Dead,
9:54
it
9:55
was
9:55
decided
9:55
to
9:55
keep
9:56
the
9:56
recap
9:56
as
9:57
brief
9:57
as
9:57
possible
9:58
and
9:58
keep
9:58
some
9:58
of
9:58
the
9:59
wackier
9:59
ideas
10:00
restricted.
10:01
The
10:01
earlier
10:01
drafts
10:02
of
10:02
the
10:02
script
10:02
were
10:03
written
10:03
during
10:03
production
10:04
of
10:04
Crime
10:04
Wave
10:04
and
10:05
were
10:05
more
10:05
comedic,
10:06
with
10:06
the
10:06
horror
10:06
played
10:07
to
10:07
more
10:07
laughs
10:08
than
10:08
scares.
10:09
In
10:09
a
10:09
similar
10:10
vein
10:10
to
10:10
their
10:10
early
10:11
8mm
10:11
comedy
10:12
films.
10:13
It
10:13
was
10:13
agreed
10:14
that
10:14
Evil
10:14
Dead
10:14
2
10:15
should
10:15
lean
10:15
more
10:16
towards
10:16
comedy
10:17
than
10:17
its
10:17
predecessor,
10:18
if
10:18
only
10:19
to
10:19
achieve
10:19
the
10:20
desired
10:20
and
10:21
required
10:21
R
10:22
rating.
10:23
Once
10:23
Raimi
10:24
and
10:24
Spiegel
10:24
were
10:24
happy
10:25
with
10:25
their
10:25
script,
10:25
they
10:26
auditioned
10:26
a
10:26
new
10:27
cast
10:27
including
10:28
Denise
10:28
Bixler
10:29
replacing
10:29
Betsy
10:30
Baker
10:30
as
10:30
Linda.
10:31
The
10:31
character
10:32
of
10:32
Bobby
10:32
Jo
10:32
was
10:33
written
10:33
for
10:33
Raimi's
10:34
housemate
10:34
Holly
10:35
Hunter
10:35
in
10:35
mind.
10:36
But
10:36
Hunter
10:36
didn't
10:37
end
10:37
up
10:37
taking
10:37
the
10:37
part.
10:38
Apparently
10:39
she
10:39
wasn't
10:39
pretty
10:40
enough.
10:40
According
10:41
to
10:41
Rob
10:41
Tapert,
10:43
Bruce
10:43
Campbell
10:44
would
10:44
obviously
10:44
be
10:44
back
10:44
as
10:45
Ashley
10:46
and
10:46
he
10:46
really
10:46
wanted
10:46
to
10:47
bulk
10:47
up
10:47
and
10:47
get
10:47
more
10:48
of
10:48
a
10:48
hero
10:49
physique.
10:50
Campbell
10:50
worked
10:50
out
10:51
for
10:51
two
10:51
hours
10:51
a
10:51
day,
10:52
six
10:52
days
10:52
a
10:52
week
10:53
with
10:53
a
10:53
strict
10:54
diet
10:54
for
10:54
12
10:54
weeks
10:55
during
10:55
pre
10:55
production,
10:56
which
10:56
continued
10:57
into
10:57
filming.
10:58
John
10:59
Casino
10:59
was
10:59
his
11:00
stunt
11:00
double
11:00
for
11:00
the
11:00
extreme
11:01
stunts,
11:01
but
11:01
Campbell
11:02
wanted
11:02
to
11:02
do
11:03
the
11:03
majority
11:03
himself.
11:05
Having
11:06
Dino
11:06
De
11:06
Laurentiis
11:07
involved
11:07
meant
11:08
potentially
11:09
having
11:09
access
11:09
to
11:10
the
11:10
De
11:10
Laurentiis'
11:11
own
11:11
studio
11:11
in
11:12
Wilmington
11:12
next
11:13
to
11:13
his
11:13
offices.
11:14
It
11:14
had
11:14
11
11:15
sound
11:15
stages,
11:16
editing
11:16
and
11:17
screening
11:17
facilities
11:18
and
11:18
prop
11:18
shops.
11:19
But
11:20
after
11:20
the
11:20
studio
11:21
interference
11:21
on
11:22
Crimewave,
11:22
the
11:23
filmmakers
11:23
decided
11:24
to
11:24
stay
11:24
away
11:24
from
11:25
the
11:25
studios
11:26
and
11:26
away
11:26
from
11:27
the
11:27
interference.
11:28
Not
11:28
to
11:28
mention,
11:29
De
11:29
Laurentiis
11:29
had
11:30
offered
11:30
them
11:30
the
11:30
use
11:30
of
11:30
his
11:31
studio
11:31
for
11:32
full
11:32
price
11:33
and
11:33
it
11:33
would
11:33
be
11:33
much
11:34
cheaper
11:34
elsewhere.
11:35
The
11:35
decision
11:36
not
11:36
to
11:36
use
11:37
his
11:37
studios
11:38
offended
11:38
De
11:38
Laurentiis,
11:39
who
11:40
when
11:40
they
11:40
found
11:40
out
11:41
they
11:41
had
11:41
location
11:41
scouted
11:42
in
11:42
Wadesboro
11:43
three
11:43
hours
11:44
drive
11:44
away,
11:45
called
11:45
Rob
11:45
Taper
11:46
to
11:46
a
11:46
meeting
11:46
at
11:47
his
11:47
offices
11:48
just
11:48
to
11:48
prove
11:49
to
11:49
them
11:49
how
11:49
far
11:50
away
11:50
they
11:50
were
11:51
and
11:51
just
11:51
to
11:51
give
11:51
them
11:51
a
11:52
hard
11:52
time.
11:53
But
11:53
the
11:53
location
11:54
they'd
11:54
selected
11:55
was
11:55
perfect
11:56
and
11:56
De
11:56
Laurentiis
11:57
reluctantly
11:58
agreed.
11:59
The
11:59
production's
11:59
budget
12:00
couldn't
12:00
afford
12:00
hotels
12:01
for
12:01
the
12:01
cast
12:01
and
12:02
crew,
12:02
so
12:02
they
12:03
rented
12:03
local
12:03

12:04
foreclosed
12:05

12:05
for
12:05
the
12:05
duration
12:06
of
12:06
the
12:06
shooting
12:08
rather
12:08
than
12:08
use
12:08
a
12:09
pre
12:09
existing
12:09
cabin
12:10
night
12:10
on
12:10
the
12:10
Evil
12:11
Dead.
12:11
This
12:12
time
12:12
around,
12:12
the
12:12
cabin
12:13
was
12:13
built
12:13
especially
12:14
for
12:14
the
12:14
production.
12:15
With
12:15
the
12:15
cabin
12:16
cellar
12:16
and
12:16
workshed
12:17
interior
12:18

12:18
built
12:19
in
12:19
the
12:19
gym
12:19
of
12:19
the
12:20
local
12:20
J.R.
12:21
Faison
12:21
Junior
12:21
High
12:22
School.
12:22
The
12:23
cabin
12:23
was
12:23
built
12:24
on
12:24
the
12:24
land
12:24
belonging
12:25
to
12:25
a
12:25
local
12:25
farmhouse
12:26
owned
12:27
by
12:27
Harry
12:27
Huntley,
12:28
who
12:28
also
12:28
became
12:28
their
12:29
local
12:29
fixer.
12:30
The
12:30
farmhouse
12:31
served
12:31
as
12:31
their
12:31
production
12:32
base
12:33
and
12:33
it's
12:33
the
12:33
same
12:33
farmhouse
12:34
Steven
12:34
Spielberg
12:35
used
12:35
for
12:36
The
12:36
Color
12:36

12:37
They
12:37
paid
12:38
J.R.
12:38
Faison
12:39
Junior
12:39

12:40
$500
12:41
a
12:41
month
12:41
to
12:41
use
12:41
its
12:42
facilities
12:43
and
12:43
the
12:43
gym
12:43
was
12:43
used
12:44
to
12:44
house
12:44
a
12:44
two
12:45
level
12:45
set,
12:46
the
12:46
ground
12:46
floor
12:47
being
12:47
the
12:47
fruit
12:47
cellar
12:48
and
12:48
the
12:48
first
12:49
floor
12:49
the
12:49
ground
12:49
floor
12:50
of
12:50
the
12:50
cabin.
12:51
The
12:52
exterior
12:52
was
12:52
a
12:53
short
12:53
drive
12:53
from
12:53
the
12:54
farmhouse
12:54
and
12:54
they
12:55
built
12:55
this
12:55
set
12:55
from
12:56
scratch,
12:56
making
12:57
the
12:57
interior
12:57
set
12:58
a
12:58
little
12:58
larger
12:59
than
12:59
the
12:59
exterior
13:00
house,
13:01
then
13:01
purposely
13:02
gave
13:02
the
13:02
house
13:02
tilted
13:03
windows
13:03
and
13:04
door
13:04
frames
13:05
to
13:05
add
13:05
to
13:05
the
13:06
ricketiness
13:06
of
13:07
it.
13:08
Unlike
13:08
the
13:09
last
13:09
movie,
13:09
which
13:09
was
13:09
filmed
13:10
in
13:10
a
13:10
harsh
13:11
Tennessee
13:11
winter
13:12
where
13:12
it
13:12
was
13:12
the
13:12
coldest
13:13
in
13:13
decades,
13:14
this
13:15
movie
13:15
was
13:15
filmed
13:15
in
13:16
the
13:16
summer
13:16
in
13:16
Carolina
13:17
and
13:18
it
13:18
was
13:18
hot.
13:19
The
13:19
temperature
13:19
outside
13:20
was
13:20
over
13:20
100
13:21
degrees
13:21
Fahrenheit,
13:22
which
13:22
is
13:22
37
13:23
Celsius.
13:24
But
13:24
inside
13:25
the
13:25
school
13:25
gym,
13:25
with
13:25
the
13:26
added
13:26
tungsten
13:26
lights,
13:27
it
13:27
often
13:27
breached
13:28
110
13:29
Fahrenheit
13:29
or
13:30
43
13:30
degrees
13:31
Celsius.
13:32
This
13:32
made
13:32
it
13:33
incredibly
13:33
uncomfortable
13:34
on
13:34
set,
13:35
but
13:35
especially
13:36
for
13:36
anyone
13:36
in
13:37
makeup
13:37
or
13:37
prosthetics.
13:38
They
13:39
had
13:39
cast
13:39
Lou
13:40
Hancock
13:40
to
13:41
play
13:41
the
13:41
unpossessed
13:42
Henrietta
13:43
Knowby.
13:43
She
13:44
was
13:44
62
13:44
years
13:45
old
13:45
at
13:45
the
13:45
time
13:46
and
13:46
no
13:46
one
13:47
wants
13:47
to
13:47
put
13:47
a
13:47
62
13:48
year
13:48
old
13:48
woman
13:49
through
13:49
that.
13:50
For
13:50
the
13:50
possessed
13:51
version
13:51
of
13:51
the
13:51
character
13:52
wearing
13:53
a
13:53
heavy
13:53
suit
13:53
and
13:54
makeup.
13:55
To
13:55
get
13:55
around
13:55
this,
13:56
Sam
13:56
Raimi
13:57
cast
13:57
his
13:57
younger
13:58
brother
13:58
Ted
13:58
Raimi
13:59
as
13:59
possessed
13:59
Henrietta.
14:01
The
14:01
suit
14:01
would
14:01
be
14:02
filled
14:02
with
14:02
litres
14:03
of
14:03
his
14:03
sweat
14:03
during
14:04
filming,
14:04
but
14:05
at
14:05
least
14:06
he
14:06
would
14:06
get
14:06
into
14:06
the
14:07
Screen
14:07
Actors
14:07
Guild.
14:08
Due
14:08
to
14:08
the
14:08
role,
14:09
A
14:09
complete
14:09
body
14:10
cast
14:10
of
14:10
Ted
14:10
Raimi
14:11
was
14:11
taken
14:12
on
14:12
which
14:12
the
14:12
main
14:13
portion
14:13
of
14:13
Henrietta's
14:14
rotting
14:14
body
14:15
could
14:15
be
14:15
sculpted
14:16
as
14:16
one
14:16
of
14:16
separate
14:17
head,
14:17
arm
14:18
and
14:18
leg
14:18
moulds
14:18
to
14:19
sculpt
14:19
each
14:19
part
14:19
respectively.
14:21
A
14:21
suit
14:21
with
14:21
pouches
14:22
full
14:22
of
14:22
lentils
14:23
were
14:23
added
14:23
underneath
14:24
to
14:24
give
14:24
the
14:24
outer
14:24
skin
14:25
weight
14:25
and
14:25
movement,
14:26
although
14:27
this
14:27
did
14:27
make
14:27
the
14:28
makeup
14:28
much
14:28
heavier
14:29
and
14:29
undoubtedly
14:30
a
14:31
lot
14:31
more
14:31
uncomfortable.
14:33
To
14:33
get
14:33
that
14:33
important
14:34
R
14:34
rating,
14:35
it
14:35
was
14:35
decided
14:35
to
14:36
have
14:36
as
14:36
little
14:36
blood
14:37
as
14:37
possible
14:37
and
14:38
use
14:38
quick
14:38
cuts
14:39
and
14:39
character
14:39
reactions
14:40
rather
14:40
than
14:41
blood
14:41
and
14:41
gore.
14:42
Bodily
14:42
fluids
14:43
were
14:43
green,
14:43
black
14:44
and
14:44
yellow.
14:45
When
14:45
they
14:45
did
14:46
use
14:46
red
14:46
blood,
14:47
it
14:47
was
14:47
the
14:47
same
14:47
recipe
14:48
as
14:48
last
14:48
time
14:49
with
14:49
the
14:49
sticky
14:49
Karo
14:50
corn
14:50
syrup.

14:54
commenced
14:54
in
14:54
May
14:55
1986
14:56
and
14:56
Tim
14:56
Philo
14:57
was
14:57
contacted
14:58
about
14:58
reprising
14:58
the
14:59
role
14:59
of
14:59
cinematographer
15:00
that
15:00
he
15:00
had
15:00
for
15:00
the
15:01
first
15:01
movie.
15:02
But
15:02
as
15:02
he'd
15:02
Never
15:03
shot
15:03
a
15:03
35mm
15:04
picture,
15:05
he
15:05
felt
15:05
the
15:05
task
15:06
was
15:06
beyond
15:07
his
15:07
skills.
15:08
Eugene
15:08
Schlugleit
15:09
was
15:10
hired
15:10
as
15:10
a
15:10
cinematographer.
15:11
He'd
15:12
worked
15:12
with
15:12
Ramey
15:13
on
15:13
the
15:13
crime
15:13
wave
15:13
reshoots
15:14
and
15:14
he
15:15
came
15:15
with
15:15
his
15:15
own
15:15
crew
15:16
and
15:16
equipment.
15:17
But
15:17
due
15:17
to
15:17
Raimi's
15:18
erratic
15:19
filmmaking
15:19
ways,
15:20
the
15:20
number
15:20
and
15:21
frequency
15:21
of
15:21
setups
15:22
started
15:22
to
15:22
grade
15:23
on
15:23
Schlugleit's
15:24
crew,
15:25
who
15:25
stopped
15:25
working
15:26
and
15:26
were
15:26
eventually
15:27
asked
15:27
to
15:27
leave
15:28
the
15:28
movie.
15:29
Tim
15:29
Philo
15:29
was
15:30
once
15:30
again
15:30
offered
15:31
to
15:31
be
15:31
cinematographer
15:32
and
15:32
he
15:32
again
15:33
declined.
15:34
Peter
15:34
Denning
15:35
was
15:35
then
15:35
brought
15:35
on
15:35
board
15:36
as
15:36
the
15:36
replacement
15:37
cinematographer
15:38
because
15:39
Eugene
15:39
Schlugleit
15:40
had
15:40
already
15:41
completed
15:41
the
15:41
exterior
15:42
night
15:42
footage.
15:43
And
15:43
then
15:43
Peter
15:43
Denning
15:44
came
15:44
on
15:44
board
15:44
to
15:45
complete
15:45
the
15:45
rest.
15:46
Denning
15:47
was
15:47
credited
15:47
as
15:48
the
15:48
director
15:48
of

15:49

15:55
Tim
15:55
Philo
15:55
was
15:56
eventually
15:56
persuaded
15:57
to
15:57
return

as

16:00
and
16:01
he
16:01
assisted
16:01
for
16:01
the
16:02
final
16:02
portion
16:02
of

of

16:06

mechanical

effects
16:08
on
16:08
things
16:09
like
16:09
the
16:09
Ram-o-cam,
16:10
which
16:10
was
16:10
a
16:10
heavy
16:11
20
16:11
foot
16:11
iron
16:12
pole
16:12
attached
16:12
in
16:13
the
16:13
center
16:13
to
16:13
a
16:14
western
16:14
dolly
16:15
so
16:15
it
16:15
could
16:15
pivot
16:15
like
16:16
a
16:16
seesaw
16:17
with
16:17
a
16:17
camera
16:17
fixed
16:18
at
16:18
the
16:18
front
16:18
end
16:18
of
16:18
the

16:20
pushing
16:21
it
16:21
from

the
16:21

16:22
This
16:22
was

where

16:27
which
16:27
had
16:27
to
16:27
be
16:27
done
16:28
three
16:28
times
16:28
to
16:29
get
16:29
the
16:29
final
16:29
shot.
16:31
On
16:31
the
16:31
sequence
16:32
featuring
16:32
Ash
16:33
being
16:33
propelled
16:33
through
16:33
the
16:33
forest
16:34
by
16:34
the
16:34
demon
16:35
force.
16:35
Bruce
16:36
Campbell
16:36
was
16:36
strapped
16:37
to
16:37
the
16:37
Sam-o-cam
16:38
made
16:39
up
16:39
of
16:39
a
16:39
cast
16:39
iron
16:40
X
16:40
with
16:41
boots
16:41
bolted
16:42
to
16:42
the
16:42
end
16:42
of
16:42
two
16:42
of
16:43
the
16:43
limbs
16:43
and
16:43
wrists
16:44
strapped
16:44
to
16:44
the
16:44
end
16:45
of
16:45
the
16:45
other
16:45
two
16:45
limbs.
16:46
This
16:46
X
16:47
was
16:47
connected
16:47
at
16:48
center
16:48
to
16:48
a
16:48
motor
16:49
which
16:49
allowed
16:50
the
16:50
rig
16:50
and
16:51
Campbell
16:51
to
16:51
spin
16:52
360
16:53
degrees
16:53
from
16:53

16:54
to
16:54
20
16:55
RPM.
16:56
It
16:56
was
16:56
attached
16:57
to
16:57
a
16:57
Chapman
16:57
Crane
16:58
arm
16:58
15ft
16:59
off
16:59
the
16:59
ground,
17:00
mounted
17:00
onto
17:01
the
17:01
back
17:01
of
17:01
the
17:01
truck
17:02
so
17:02
it
17:02
could
17:02
be
17:02
driven
17:03
along.
17:04
The
17:04
shot
17:04
took
17:04
a
17:05
day
17:05
to
17:05
achieve
17:05
and
17:06
was
17:06
filmed
17:06
just
17:07
outside
17:07
of
17:07
Cheraw,
17:08
South
17:08
Carolina.
17:10
Once
17:10
shooting
17:11
in
17:11
North
17:11
Carolina
17:12
had
17:12
wrapped
17:12
in
17:13
September
17:13
1986,
17:14
they
17:15
returned
17:15
to
17:15
Michigan.
17:16
But
17:16
there
17:16
was
17:17
still
17:17
footage
17:17
that
17:18
needed
17:18
to
17:18
be
17:18
reshot.
17:19
Tim
17:20
Philo
17:20
oversaw
17:21
some
17:21
of
17:21
the
17:21
reshoots
17:22
in
17:22
a
17:22
warehouse
17:23
studio
17:23
just
17:23
outside
17:24
of
17:24
Detroit.
17:25
And
17:25
the
17:25
schedule
17:26
was
17:26
kept
17:26
fairly
17:26
tight
17:27
with
17:27
three
17:27
sets
17:28
and
17:28
two
17:28
cameras
17:28
in
17:29
the
17:29
space
17:30
along
17:30
with
17:30
a
17:30
special
17:30
effects
17:31
area.
17:32
While
17:32
one
17:32
set
17:32
was
17:33
used,
17:33
another
17:33
was
17:34
being
17:34
prepped
17:35
so
17:35
there
17:35
was
17:35
no
17:35
waiting
17:36
around
17:36
between
17:36
setups.
17:38
Many
17:38
of
17:38
the
17:38
more
17:38
complicated
17:39
shots
17:39
and
17:40
special
17:40
effects
17:40
animation
17:41
were
17:41
created
17:42
here,
17:42
Such
17:43
as
17:43
Headless
17:43
Linda
17:44
attacking
17:44
Bruce
17:44
with
17:44
a
17:45
chainsaw.
17:45
The
17:46
climactic
17:46
vortex
17:47
sequence
17:48
created
17:48
using
17:48
the
17:49
Sam-o-cam
17:49
X
17:50
rig
17:50
with
17:50
a
17:50
blue
17:51
screen,
17:51
and
17:51
the
17:52
blood
17:52
flood
17:52
scene,
17:53
which
17:53
took
17:53
three
17:53
attempts.
17:54
They
17:55
tried
17:55
twice
17:55
in
17:56
North
17:56
Carolina
17:57
and
17:57
then
17:57
once
17:57
again
17:58
during
17:58
the
17:58
reshoots
17:59
in
17:59
Detroit.
18:00
A
18:00
portion
18:00
of
18:01
the
18:01
set
18:01
was
18:01
constructed
18:02
sideways
18:02
with
18:03
the
18:03
camera
18:03
tilted
18:04
vertically.
18:05
Bruce
18:05
Campbell
18:06
lay
18:06
horizontally
18:07
flat
18:07
on
18:07
a
18:07
diving
18:08
board
18:08
type
18:09
rig
18:09
a
18:09
few
18:09
feet
18:10
off
18:10
the
18:10
floor
18:10
and
18:11
above
18:11
him
18:11
was
18:11
a
18:12
55
18:12
gallon
18:13
drum
18:13
of
18:13
fake
18:14
blood
18:14
with
18:15
a
18:15
plug
18:15
in
18:15
the
18:15
bottom.
18:16
The
18:16
plug
18:17
was
18:17
pulled
18:17
out
18:18
and
18:18
he
18:18
was
18:18
hit
18:19
with
18:19
the
18:19
full
18:19
force
18:19
of
18:20
the
18:20
liquid.
18:21
Also
18:22
asked
18:22
to
18:22
return
18:23
following
18:23
his
18:23
work
18:24
on
18:24
the
18:24
Evil
18:24
Dead
18:25
was
18:25
Tom
18:25
Sullivan
18:26
for
18:26
the
18:26
special
18:26
effects
18:27
work,
18:28
the
18:28
task
18:28
of
18:28
which
18:29
would
18:29
include
18:29
the
18:29
makeup
18:30
effects
18:30
and
18:30
the
18:31
stop
18:31
motion
18:31
animation.
18:32
For
18:32
Evil
18:32
Dead
18:33
2.
18:34
Sullivan
18:34
felt
18:35
the
18:35
task
18:35
was
18:35
too
18:35
huge,
18:36
so
18:36
he
18:36
opted
18:37
to
18:37
take
18:37
a
18:37
reduced
18:38
role,
18:39
producing
18:39
some
18:39
of
18:39
the
18:40
stop
18:40
motion
18:40
animation
18:41
and
18:41
some
18:41
of
18:41
the
18:41
props
18:42
instead.
18:43
Mark
18:43
Shostrom
18:44
was
18:44
hired
18:45
as
18:45
the
18:45
supervisor
18:46
of
18:46
the
18:46
makeup
18:46

18:47

18:47
and
18:47
Dave

Kindlen
18:48
managed
18:49
the
18:49

18:50
specifically
18:50
used
18:51
inside
18:51
the

18:53
Prep
18:53
for
18:53
the
18:53
makeup
18:54
team
18:54
had
18:54
begun
18:55
in
18:55
Pasadena,
18:56
California
18:57
at
18:57
the
18:57
start
18:57
of
18:57
March
18:58
1986,
18:59
ten
18:59
weeks
19:00
before
19:00
the
19:00
start
19:01
of
19:01
shooting.
19:02
Shostrum

19:08
prior

to
19:09
starting
19:09
Evil
19:09
Dead
19:10
2,
19:10
and
19:10
he
19:10
took
19:11
the
19:11
opportunity
19:11
to
19:11
hang
19:12
a
19:12
Freddy
19:12
glove
19:13
he
19:13
owned
19:13
in
19:13
two
19:14
of
19:14
the
19:14
sets
19:14
through
19:15
the
19:15
course
19:15
of
19:15
the
19:15
movie.
19:17
Sullivan
19:18
also
19:18
created
19:19
a
19:19
brand
19:19
new
19:19
Book
19:20
of
19:20
the
19:20
Dead,
19:21
bigger
19:21
than
19:21
the
19:21
original
19:22
and
19:22
more
19:22
elaborate.
19:23
He
19:23
created
19:24
four
19:24
new
19:24
books.
19:25
One
19:25
hero
19:26
copy
19:26
with
19:26
all
19:26
the
19:27

19:27
hand
19:27
painted
19:28
with
19:28
watercolors,
19:29
and
19:29
three
19:29
stunt
19:30
books.
19:31
He
19:31
also
19:31
made
19:31
five
19:32
sets
19:32
of
19:32
identical
19:33
lost
19:33
pages,
19:34
including
19:35
the
19:35
Hero
19:35
from
19:35
the
19:36

19:36
made
19:37
from
19:37
a
19:37
rehearsal
19:38
photo
19:38
of
19:38
Bruce
19:38
Campbell.
19:39
He
19:40
also
19:40
included
19:40
a
19:41
passive
19:41
aggressive
19:42
message
19:42
to
19:42
the
19:42
guys
19:43
he
19:43
shared
19:43
a
19:43
house
19:43
with
19:44
in
19:44
one
19:44
of
19:44
the
19:44
pages
19:45
which
19:45
reads,
19:46
Ray
19:47
is
19:47
an
19:47
asshole
19:47
and
19:48
he
19:48
can
19:48
go
19:48
F
19:48
himself
19:49
with
19:49
a
19:49
weasel
19:50
now.
19:50
It's
19:50
true.
19:51
It's
19:51
on
19:51
the
19:52
pages
19:52
Ali
19:52
is
19:53
looking
19:53
through.
19:53
Just
19:54
after
19:54
Bobby
19:54
Joe's
19:55
vine
19:55
attack,
19:56
Sullivan
19:57
also
19:57
brought
19:58
the
19:58
Kandarian
19:59
dagger
19:59
he
19:59
created
20:00
and
20:00
still
20:00
owned
20:00
from
20:01
the
20:01
previous
20:01
movie
20:02
and
20:02
redesigned
20:03
the
20:03
blade
20:03
from
20:03
a
20:04
simple
20:04
pointed
20:04
piece
20:05
of
20:05
metal
20:05
to
20:06
a
20:06
tail
20:06
like
20:07
tapered
20:07
set
20:07
of
20:07
bones.
20:08
The
20:09
brand
20:09
new
20:09
Book
20:09
of
20:10
the
20:10
Dead
20:10
had
20:10
a
20:10
hollow
20:11
wooden
20:11
frame
20:11
with
20:11
articulated
20:12
ball
20:12
and
20:13
socket
20:13
joint
20:13
for
20:14
the
20:14
face
20:15
covered
20:15
by
20:15
flexible
20:16
skin
20:16
with
20:16
an
20:16
opening
20:17
mouth.
20:18
Sullivan
20:18
drew
20:19
up
20:19
an
20:19
additional
20:19
contract
20:20
which
20:20
also
20:21
stipulated
20:21
he
20:22
would
20:22
retain
20:22
the
20:22
ownership
20:23
and
20:23
copyright
20:24
of
20:24
any
20:24
props
20:25
he
20:25
manufactured.
20:26
Which
20:26
means
20:27
he
20:27
owned
20:27
an
20:28
original
20:28
Book
20:28
of
20:28
the
20:29
Dead
20:29
and
20:29
the
20:29
Kandarian
20:30
Dagger
20:31
as
20:31
well
20:31
as
20:31
many
20:32
of
20:32
the
20:32
props.
20:33
And
20:33
the
20:33
outstanding
20:34
star
20:34
of
20:34
this
20:35
movie
20:35
isn't
20:36
Henrietta's
20:36
flyaway
20:37
eyeball,
20:37
although
20:38
that
20:38
comes
20:38
a
20:38
close
20:39
second.
20:39
It's
20:40
Ash's
20:40
evil
20:41
disembodied
20:42
hand.
20:42
That
20:43
was
20:43
achieved
20:43
using
20:44
various
20:44
mechanical
20:45
and
20:45
makeup
20:45
effects
20:46
with
20:47
stop
20:47
motion
20:47
animation.
20:49
Some
20:49
of
20:49
it
20:49
used
20:50
an
20:50
entirely
20:50
fake
20:51
hand
20:51
with
20:51
radio
20:51
controlled
20:52
articulated
20:53
armature,
20:54
but
20:54
they
20:54
also
20:54
used
20:54
a
20:55
real
20:55
hand
20:55
with
20:55
a
20:56
severed
20:56
stomp
20:56
appliance
20:57
and
20:57
an
20:58
animated
20:58
stop
20:58
motion
20:59
version
21:00
for
21:00
the
21:00
real
21:00
hand.
21:01
A
21:01
narrow
21:01
trench
21:02
was
21:02
made
21:02
between
21:02
the
21:03
cabin's
21:03
floorboards
21:04
with
21:04
one
21:04
side
21:05
2
21:05
inches
21:05
higher
21:06
than
21:06
the
21:06
other.
21:06
So
21:07
when
21:07
filmed
21:07
across
21:07
a
21:08
certain
21:08
angle,
21:09
it
21:09
looks
21:09
like
21:09
one
21:09
continuous
21:10
piece
21:10
of
21:11
Wood.
21:11
The
21:12
scene
21:12
where
21:12
Bruce
21:13
Campbell
21:13
as
21:13
Ash
21:14
is
21:14
fighting
21:14
his
21:14
own
21:15
possessed
21:15
hand
21:16
is,
21:16
I
21:16
think,
21:17
probably
21:17
everyone's
21:18
favorite
21:18
scene
21:18
in
21:19
the
21:19
movie.
21:19
And
21:19
it's
21:20
straight
21:20
out
21:20
of
21:20
a
21:21
Looney
21:21
Tunes
21:21
cartoon
21:22
with
21:22
the
21:22
plate
21:23
smashing,
21:23
beating
21:24
himself
21:24
up,
21:25
flipping
21:25
himself
21:26
over
21:26
and
21:26
dragging
21:27
himself
21:27
across
21:27
the
21:28
floor.
21:28
Again,
21:29
why
21:29
was
21:29
Bruce
21:29
Campbell
21:30
not
21:30
a
21:30
huge
21:31
star?
21:32
He
21:32
did
21:32
the
21:32
main
21:33
fight
21:33
between
21:33
himself
21:34
and
21:34
his
21:34
hand
21:35
in
21:35
one
21:36
take,
21:36
apparently.
21:38
But
21:38
as
21:38
he
21:38
chops
21:39
his
21:39
hand
21:39
off,
21:39
he
21:40
needs
21:40
a
21:40
new
21:40
appendage.
21:41
And
21:41
Ash's
21:42
hand
21:42
chainsaw
21:43
was
21:43
constructed
21:44
by
21:44
Vern
21:44
Hoist
21:45
Crew
21:45
from
21:46
a
21:46
real
21:46
Homelite
21:47
XL
21:47
chainsaw,
21:48
which
21:49
had
21:49
its
21:49
engine
21:49
replaced
21:50
with
21:50
a
21:50
smaller
21:51
12
21:51
volt
21:51
electric
21:52
motor
21:53
so
21:53
Campbell
21:53
could
21:54
fit
21:54
his
21:54
hand
21:54
inside
21:55
and
21:55
it
21:55
would
21:55
be
21:56
silent
21:56
enough
21:56
for
21:56
filming.
21:57
When
21:57
the
21:58
chain
21:58
was
21:58
still
21:59
fake,
21:59
exhaust
22:00
smoke
22:00
was
22:00
fed
22:01
into
22:01
the
22:01
saw
22:01
via
22:02
a
22:02
tube.
22:03
That
22:03
tube
22:03
ran
22:03
down
22:04
his
22:04
leg
22:04
and
22:05
then
22:05
20
22:05
or
22:06
so
22:06
feet
22:06
to
22:06
a
22:07
tobacco
22:07
smoker
22:08
and
22:08
the
22:08
chain's
22:09
teeth
22:09
were
22:09
filed
22:09
down
22:10
for
22:10
safety.
22:11
There
22:11
was
22:12
an
22:12
unaltered,
22:12
fully
22:13
working
22:13
reel
22:14
saw
22:14
on
22:14
set,
22:15
but
22:15
also
22:15
foam
22:16
rubber
22:16
and
22:16
lightweight
22:17
stunt
22:17
reproductions.
22:19
Henrietta's
22:20
eyeball
22:20
was
22:20
a
22:20
ping
22:21
pong
22:21
ball.
22:22
It
22:22
was
22:22
on
22:22
a
22:22
rig
22:23
constructed
22:23
and
22:23
fixed
22:24
to
22:24
the
22:24
camera,
22:24
with
22:24
a
22:25
sideways
22:25
U
22:26
shaped
22:26
black
22:26
metal
22:27
rod
22:27
attached,
22:28
the
22:28
camera
22:28
at
22:28
one
22:29
end
22:29
and
22:29
the
22:29
disembodied
22:30
eyeball
22:31
on
22:31
the
22:31
other.
22:31
With
22:32
the
22:32
wire
22:32
stretched
22:33
away
22:33
from
22:33
the
22:33
camera,
22:34
the
22:34
way
22:35
it
22:35
flew
22:35
towards
22:35
Bobby
22:36
Joe's
22:36
mouth
22:36
was
22:37
like
22:37
most
22:38
of
22:38
the
22:38
movie,
22:38
a
22:39
Three
22:39
Stooges
22:40
gag.
22:40
On
22:41
this
22:41
movie,
22:41
Bruce
22:42
Campbell
22:42
got
22:42
to
22:42
wear
22:43
the
22:43
scleral
22:44
contact
22:44
lenses
22:45
during
22:45
the
22:45
Asch
22:46
possession
22:46
scene,
22:46
which
22:47
rendered
22:47
him
22:48
completely
22:48
blind.
22:49
Contact
22:49
lenses
22:50
had
22:50
improved
22:51
since
22:51
they
22:51
first
22:51
used
22:52
them
22:52
in
22:52
1979,
22:53
but
22:53
the
22:54
process
22:54
of
22:54
insertion
22:55
and
22:55
removal
22:56
was
22:56
still
22:56
painful,
22:57
so
22:57
Campbell
22:58
often
22:58
just
22:58
left
22:59
them
22:59
in
22:59
between
22:59
takes,
23:00
which,
23:01
as
23:01
all
23:01
contact
23:01
lens
23:02
wearers
23:02
know,
23:03
is
23:03
very
23:03
naughty.
23:04
Oxygen
23:04
to
23:05
the
23:05
eye,
23:05
Bruce.
23:07
Evil
23:08
Dead
23:08
2
23:08
had
23:08
three
23:09
and
23:09
a
23:09
half
23:09
months
23:09
of
23:10
post
23:10
production
23:10
and
23:11
the
23:11
majority
23:11
of
23:11
that
23:12
included
23:12
all
23:12
the
23:12
film's
23:13
animation,
23:14
which
23:14
was
23:14
split
23:15
between
23:15
Tom
23:15
Sullivan,
23:16
Larry
23:16
Larson
23:17
and
23:17
Brian
23:17
Ray.
23:18
Doug
23:19
Beswick
23:19
was
23:19
responsible
23:20
for
23:20
dancing
23:21
Linda
23:21
in
23:22
a
23:22
scene
23:22
choreographed
23:23
by
23:23
Tam
23:23
G.
23:23
Warner
23:24
and
23:24
danced
23:25
by
23:25
Snowy
23:26
Winters.
23:26
The
23:27
dance
23:27
was
23:27
filmed
23:28
repeatedly
23:28
from
23:29
multiple
23:29
angles
23:30
to
23:30
be
23:30
able
23:30
to
23:30
get
23:31
all
23:31
the
23:31
footage
23:31
required
23:32
to
23:32
animate
23:33
it.
23:34
They
23:34
sculpted
23:34
a
23:35
12
23:35
inch
23:35
fully
23:36
posable
23:36
scale
23:37
figurine
23:37
of
23:37
Linda
23:38
with
23:38
a
23:38
detachable
23:39
head.
23:39
A
23:40
scale
23:40
miniature
23:41
set
23:41
to
23:41
match
23:41
the
23:41
exterior
23:42
location
23:43
was
23:43
built
23:44
on
23:44
an
23:44
eight
23:44
foot
23:44
square
23:45
tabletop
23:46
with
23:46
trees
23:47
and
23:47
a
23:47
smaller
23:48
force
23:48
perspective
23:49
cabin.
23:50
Beswick
23:51
then
23:51
painstakingly
23:52
took
23:52
a
23:52
month
23:52
to
23:52
animate
23:53
Linda's
23:53
corpse,
23:54
following
23:54
the
23:55
reference
23:55
footage
23:56
as
23:56
a
23:56
guide
23:56
rather
23:57
than
23:57
matching
23:57
frame
23:58
by
23:58
frame.
23:59
For
23:59
the
23:59
mist,
24:00
which
24:00
couldn't
24:00
be
24:00
animated
24:01
frame
24:01
by
24:01
frame,
24:02
they
24:02
used
24:02
a
24:03
motion
24:03
control
24:03
camera
24:04
system
24:04
which
24:05
could
24:05
be
24:05
programmed
24:05
to
24:05
match
24:06
the
24:06
live
24:06
action
24:06
camera
24:07
moves
24:07
with
24:07
the
24:08
previous
24:08
stop
24:09
motion
24:09
camera
24:09
moves.
24:10
The
24:10
mist
24:10
was
24:11
filmed
24:11
live,
24:12
moving
24:12
at
24:12
normal
24:13
speed
24:13
and
24:13
then
24:13
composited
24:14
with
24:14
the
24:15
stop
24:15
motion
24:15
animation.
24:17
They
24:17
also
24:17
constructed
24:18
a
24:18
miniature
24:19
cabin
24:19
for
24:19
the
24:19
attacking
24:20
trees
24:20
which
24:21
were
24:21
a
24:21
mixture
24:21
of
24:22
miniature
24:22
hand
24:22
and
24:23
rod
24:23
puppets
24:23
and
24:24
full
24:24
sized
24:25
rod
24:25
and
24:25
foam
24:25
puppets.
24:26
The
24:27
climax
24:27
with
24:27
the
24:27
huge
24:28
demon
24:28
head
24:28
in
24:28
the
24:28
cabin
24:29
was
24:29
nicknamed
24:30
the
24:30
Rotten
24:31
Apple
24:31
Head
24:31
and
24:32
that
24:32
was
24:32
constructed
24:33
as
24:33
a
24:33
full
24:33
size
24:34
mechanical
24:34
effect
24:35
with
24:35
genital
24:36
eyes,
24:37
foam
24:37
rubber
24:37
heads
24:38
taken
24:38
from
24:38
the
24:39
casts
24:39
of
24:39
the
24:39
actors
24:40
to
24:40
mimic
24:41
the
24:41
souls
24:41
it
24:42
had
24:42
collected
24:42
during
24:43
the
24:43
movie.
24:44
They
24:44
struggled
24:44
to
24:45
make
24:45
the
24:45
heads
24:45
work
24:45
as
24:46
they
24:46
wanted
24:46
to,
24:46
so
24:47
Raimi
24:47
used
24:48
an
24:48
anamorphic
24:48
lens
24:49
to
24:49
distort
24:49
the
24:49
image
24:50
and
24:50
cut
24:51
around
24:51
the
24:51
heads
24:51
where
24:52
possible.
24:53
A
24:53
full
24:53
size
24:54
16
24:54
foot
24:54
tree
24:55
hand
24:55
was
24:56
created
24:56
to
24:56
come
24:56
through
24:57
the
24:57
cabin
24:57
window
24:57
to
24:58
grab
24:58
ash.
24:59
The
24:59
arm
24:59
was
24:59
an
25:00
aluminium
25:00
frame
25:01
which
25:01
was
25:01
articulated
25:02
and
25:02
attached
25:02
to
25:03
cables
25:03
for
25:03
movement.
25:04
The
25:04
frame
25:05
was
25:05
then
25:05
covered
25:05
in
25:06
fake
25:06
bark,
25:06
made
25:07
mattress
25:07
foam
25:08
which
25:08

25:08
shaped
25:09
and
25:09
glued
25:09
in
25:10
place
25:11
once
25:12
filming
25:12
was
25:12
complete.
25:13
Rather
25:13
than
25:13
pay
25:13
to
25:14
have
25:14
it
25:14
all
25:14
brought
25:14
back
25:15
to
25:15
Detroit,
25:16
most
25:16
of
25:16
these
25:16
effects
25:17
were
25:17
just
25:17
left
25:17
in
25:18
Wadesboro
25:18
and
25:19

25:20

25:21
a

25:21

25:21
turning
25:22
up
25:22
at
25:22
the

25:23
of
25:23
a

25:23
in
25:23
a
25:24
local
25:24
haunted
25:24

25:25
attraction.
25:26
While
25:26
the
25:26
original
25:27
Evil
25:27
Dead
25:27
cabin
25:28
became
25:28
an
25:28
unwitting
25:29
tourist
25:29
attraction,
25:30
the
25:30
exact
25:31
location
25:31
of
25:32
The
25:32
Evil

25:32

25:33
cabin
25:33
exterior
25:34

25:34
was
25:35
generally
25:35
left
25:35
unknown
25:36
for
25:36
years.
25:37
In
25:37
2011,
25:38
on
25:38
the
25:38
Evil
25:39
Dead
25:39

25:39
Blu
25:39
Ray,
25:40
a
25:40
special
25:40
featurette
25:41
showed
25:41
the
25:42
cabin
25:42
in
25:42
a
25:42
neglected
25:43
state,
25:43
but
25:43
still
25:44
standing.
25:45
The
25:45
cabin
25:46
started
25:46
to
25:46
deteriorate
25:47
and
25:47
the
25:47
wood
25:47
rotted
25:48
and
25:48
by
25:49
2014
25:49
the
25:50
cabin
25:50
had
25:50
completely
25:51
collapsed.
25:52
The
25:52
cabin
25:53
and
25:53
workshed,
25:54
which
25:54
remained
25:54
intact
25:55
at
25:55
the
25:55
time,
25:56
was
25:56
rescued
25:56
by
25:57
Evildead
25:57
Workshed.com's
25:59
Mike
25:59
Pasquale,
26:00
who
26:00
had
26:00
permission
26:01
from
26:01
the
26:01
landowners
26:02
in
26:02
2016
26:03
to
26:03
to
26:04
try
26:04
and
26:04
salvage
26:04
as
26:05
much
26:05
from
26:05
the
26:05
site
26:06
as
26:06
possible.
26:07
Virtually
26:07
all
26:08
the
26:08
wood
26:08
had
26:08
termite
26:09
damage
26:09
and
26:10
rot,
26:10
and
26:10
while
26:10
they
26:11
managed
26:11
to
26:11
save
26:11
the
26:12
workshed
26:12
exterior,
26:13
the
26:13
frame
26:14
was
26:14
tilting
26:14
and
26:15
eventually
26:15
collapsed.
26:16
The
26:16
workshed
26:17
was
26:17
rebuilt
26:18
with
26:18
as
26:18
many
26:18
of
26:19
the
26:19
original
26:19
wooden
26:20
planks
26:20
as
26:20
possible
26:21
with
26:21
a
26:21
metal
26:22
canopy
26:22
frame.
26:23
It
26:23
went
26:23
on
26:24
tour
26:24
for
26:24
a
26:24
few
26:25
years
26:25
before
26:25
being
26:26
bought
26:26
at
26:26
auction
26:26
by
26:27
the
26:27
Living
26:27
Dead
26:27
Museum
26:28
in
26:28
Edin
26:29
City,
26:29
Pennsylvania.
26:30
This
26:30
museum
26:31
grew
26:31
out
26:32
of
26:32
a
26:32
store
26:32
and
26:33
museum
26:33
called
26:33
Monroeville
26:34
Zombies,
26:35
which
26:35
was
26:35
originally
26:36
located
26:36
in
26:37
the
26:37
Monroeville
26:37
Mall.
26:38
Why
26:39
is
26:39
that
26:39
place
26:39
familiar?
26:40
It's
26:40
where
26:40
George
26:41
Romero
26:41
filmed
26:42
the
26:42
original
26:43
dawn
26:43
of
26:43
the
26:43
Dead.
26:44
He
26:44
also
26:44
filmed
26:45
Night
26:45
of
26:45
the
26:45
Living
26:46
Dead
26:46
in
26:46
Evans
26:47
City,
26:47
Pennsylvania.
26:49
Everything
26:49
is
26:50
linked.
26:51
And
26:52
despite
26:52
this
26:52
movie
26:53
starting
26:53
as
26:53
an
26:53
idea
26:54
for
26:54
Ash
26:54
to
26:54
be
26:54
pulled
26:55
into
26:55
the
26:55
Dark
26:55
Ages,
26:56
at
26:56
the
26:56
end
26:57
of
26:57
the
26:57
movie,
26:57
the
26:57
vortex
26:58
would
26:58
pull
26:59
him
26:59
into
26:59
a
26:59
time
26:59
portal
27:00
and
27:00
once
27:00
again
27:01
the
27:01
continuity
27:02
would
27:02
skew
27:02
between
27:03
Evil
27:03
Dead
27:03
2
27:04
and
27:04
army
27:04
of
27:05
Darkness.
27:05
But
27:06
I
27:06
guess
27:06
that's
27:06
for
27:07
a
27:07
future
27:07
episode.
27:09
And
27:09
this
27:09
is
27:09
the
27:10
perfect
27:10
time
27:10
to
27:10
segue
27:11
into
27:12
the
27:12
obligatory
27:12
Keanu
27:13
reference
27:13
of
27:14
this
27:14
episode.
27:15
And
27:15
if
27:15
you
27:15
don't
27:15
know
27:15
what
27:16
that
27:16
is,
27:16
it's
27:16
where
27:17
I
27:17
try
27:17
and
27:17
link
27:17
every
27:17
movie
27:18
that
27:18
I
27:18
feature
27:18
with
27:19
Keanu
27:19
Reeves.
27:20
And
27:21
as
27:21
I
27:21
mentioned,
27:21
Ash
27:21
Williams
27:22
is
27:22
introduced
27:22
to
27:23
time
27:23
travel
27:23
at
27:24
the
27:24
end
27:24
of
27:24
this
27:24
movie
27:25
by
27:25
being
27:25
pulled
27:26
into
27:26
the
27:26
Dark
27:26
Ages.
27:27
And
27:27
another
27:28
character
27:28
who
27:29
is
27:29
introduced
27:29
to
27:29
time
27:30
travel
27:30
is
27:31
Ted
27:31
Theodore
27:32
Logan.
27:32
And
27:33
who
27:33
plays
27:33
Ted
27:33
Theodore
27:34
Logan?
27:35
Oh,
27:35
it's
27:35
Keanu
27:36
Reeves.
27:37
And
27:37
that
27:37
is
27:37
the
27:37
easiest
27:38
way
27:38
to
27:38
link
27:38
Keanu
27:39
Reeves
27:39
to
27:39
Evil
27:40
Dead
27:40
2.
27:41
The
27:42
score
27:42
for
27:42
Evil
27:43
Dead
27:43
2
27:43
was
27:43
composed
27:44
by
27:44
Joseph
27:45
LoDuca,
27:45
who
27:46
also
27:46
composed
27:46
the
27:47
other
27:47
two
27:47
scores
27:47
in
27:48
the
27:48
Evil
27:48
Dead
27:48
trilogy,
27:49
which
27:49
I
27:50
don't
27:50
think
27:50
I
27:50
mentioned
27:51
last
27:51
episode.
27:51
So
27:52
correction,
27:53
the
27:53
music
27:54
for
27:54
the
27:54
Evil
27:55
Dead
27:55
was
27:55
composed
27:56
by
27:56
Joseph
27:56
LoDuca
27:57
and
27:58
so
27:58
was
27:58
the
27:59
music
27:59
for
27:59
Evil
27:59
Dead
28:00
2.
28:01
For
28:02
a
28:02
long
28:02
time
28:02
this
28:02
movie
28:03
was
28:03
seen
28:03
as
28:03
a
28:03
remake,
28:04
and
28:04
it
28:04
sort
28:05
of
28:05
is.
28:05
In
28:05
a
28:05
way,
28:06
it
28:06
is
28:06
both
28:06
a
28:07
remake
28:07
and
28:07
a
28:07
continuation
28:08
of
28:08
the
28:08
story.
28:09
But
28:09
to
28:10
avoid
28:10
confusion,
28:10
the
28:11
end
28:11
credits
28:11
State
28:12
Evil
28:13
Dead
28:13
2,
28:13
the
28:14
sequel
28:14
to
28:14
the
28:14
ultimate
28:15
experience
28:15
in
28:15
gruelingruellingg
28:16
terror,was
28:17
in
28:17
Wadesboro,
28:18
North
28:18
Carolina
28:19
and
28:19
Detroit,
28:20
USA.
28:22
But
28:22
despite
28:23
their
28:23
best
28:23
efforts
28:23
to
28:24
the
28:24
Contrary,
28:24
Evil
28:25
Dead
28:25
2
28:25
looked
28:26
like
28:26
it
28:26
was
28:27
going
28:27
to
28:27
get
28:27
an
28:27
X
28:28
rating
28:28
from
28:28
the
28:29
MPAA.
28:30
It
28:30
would
28:30
have
28:30
been
28:31
very
28:31
difficult
28:31
for
28:31
the
28:32
De
28:32
Laurentiis
28:32
Entertainment
28:33
Group
28:33
to
28:34
Release
28:34
Evil
28:34
Dead
28:35
2
28:35
unrated
28:36
because
28:36
they
28:37
were
28:37
a
28:37
signatory
28:38
of
28:38
an
28:38
MPAA
28:39
contract
28:40
prohibiting
28:40
them
28:40
from
28:41
releasing
28:41
any
28:42
unrated
28:42
movies.
28:43
So
28:44
DG
28:45
decided
28:45
to
28:45
not
28:46
submit
28:46
the
28:46
picture
28:46
for
28:47
a
28:47
rating,
28:48
and
28:48
to
28:48
get
28:48
around
28:48
the
28:49
legal
28:49
issue,
28:49
they
28:50
set
28:50
up
28:50
Rosebud
28:51
Releasing
28:51
Corporation
28:52
to
28:53
handle
28:53
distribution
28:54
and
28:54
they
28:54
sold
28:55
the
28:55
movie
28:55
to
28:55
Rosebud.
28:57
De
28:57
G
28:58
had
28:58
already
28:58
booked
28:59
the
28:59
cinemas
29:00
across
29:00
the
29:00
US
29:01
and
29:01
the
29:01
advertising
29:02
and
29:02
marketing
29:02
material
29:03
had
29:03
already
29:03
been
29:04
created
29:04
and
29:04
paid
29:05
for
29:05
before
29:06
the
29:06
movie
29:06
was
29:06
sold
29:07
to
29:07
Rosebud.
29:08
So
29:08
the
29:08
only
29:08
real
29:09
difference
29:09
in
29:09
the
29:09
situation
29:10
was
29:10
the
29:11
name
29:11
of
29:11
the
29:11
distributor.
29:13
Evil
29:13
Dead
29:13
2
29:14
was
29:14
originally
29:14
released
29:15
unrated,
29:15
which
29:16
caused
29:16
its
29:16
own
29:16
issues
29:17
with
29:17
a
29:18

29:18
they
29:18
had

The

29:22

29:22
since

2019
29:23
is
29:23
the
29:24
new

it

here
29:27
in

the

29:28
It
29:28
was
29:28
originally
29:29
rated

29:42
A
29:43
fairly
29:43
limited
29:43
release
29:44
because
29:45
many
29:45
chains
29:45
wouldn't
29:46
show
29:46
unrated
29:47

29:48
It
29:48
never
29:48

29:49
US
29:49
top

29:50
It
29:50
debuted
29:51

29:52
peaked
29:52
at
29:52

29:53
in
29:53
its

29:55
Evil

30:00
Unlike
30:01
the

Evil
30:01
Dead,
30:02
Evil
30:02
Dead
30:02
2
30:03
had
30:03
no
30:03
such
30:03
banning
30:04
as
30:04
a
30:04
video
30:04
nasty
30:05
here
30:05
in
30:05
the
30:05
UK
30:06
and
30:06
made
30:06
a
30:07
killing,

no

30:08

30:08

30:08

30:09
It's
30:10
been
30:10
re

released
30:10
several

times
30:12

30:13
DVD
30:14
and
30:14

30:14

30:15
You
30:15
couldn't
30:15
buy
30:16
the
30:16
Evil
30:16
Dead,
30:17
but
30:17
you
30:17
could
30:17
buy
30:18
the
30:18
sequel
30:18
and
30:18
people
30:19
did
30:19
and
30:20
they
30:20
loved
30:20
it.
30:20
It
30:21
became
30:21
the
30:22
Evil
30:22
Dead
30:23
for
30:23
so
30:23
many
30:24
who
30:24
couldn't
30:24
see
30:24
the
30:25
original,
30:25
and
30:25
they
30:26
wouldn't
30:26
until
30:26
it
30:27
was
30:27
unbanned
30:28
in
30:28
1990
30:29
and
30:29
released
30:30
Uncut
30:30
in

30:32
Evil

and
30:42
a

30:44
were

30:51
so
30:51
if
30:51
you
30:51
have
30:51
one
30:52
of
30:52
those
30:52
you
30:53
might
30:53
get
30:53
your
30:53
hand
30:53
chopped
30:54
off
30:54
for
30:54
it.
30:55
It's
30:56
widely
30:56
seen
30:57
as
30:57
superior
30:57
to
30:58
the
30:58
Evil
30:58
Dead
30:58
in
30:58
many
30:59
ways,
30:59
every
31:00
bit
31:00
as
31:00
gory
31:01
and
31:01
horrific,
31:02
but
31:02
also
31:02
hilarious
31:03
and
31:03
silly.
31:04
Evil
31:05
Dead
31:05

31:05
has
31:05
an
31:05
88%
31:06

31:07
tomatoes
31:07
with
31:08
a
31:08
critics
31:08
consensus
31:09
reading
31:10
less
31:10
a
31:10
continuation
31:11
than
31:11
an
31:11
outright
31:12
reimagining.
31:13
Sam
31:13
Raimi
31:14
transforms
31:14
his
31:14
horror
31:15
tale
31:15
into
31:15
a
31:15
comedy
31:16
of
31:16
terrors
31:16
and
31:17
arguably
31:17
even
31:18
improves
31:18
on
31:18
the
31:19
original
31:19
formula.
31:21
Empire
31:21

31:22

31:22

31:32
And
31:32
as
31:32
I
31:33
mentioned
31:33
last
31:33
episode
31:34
sequels.
31:34
We
31:35
got
31:35
army
31:35
of

darkness
31:36
in
31:36
1992.
31:37
Son
31:37
Raimi
31:38
returned
31:38
to
31:38
horror
31:39
comedy
31:39
in
31:39
a
31:39
similar
31:40
vein
31:40
with
31:40
Drag
31:40
Me
31:41
to
31:41
hell
31:41
in
31:41
2009.
31:42
We
31:43
had
31:43
the
31:43
TV
31:43
series
31:44
Ash
31:44
vs
31:44
Evil
31:45
Dead
31:45
from
31:45
2015
31:46
to
31:46
2018.
31:47
Evil
31:48
Dead
31:48
4
31:48
was
31:49
talked
31:49
about
31:49
for
31:49
years,
31:50
sat
31:50
in
31:50
development
31:51
hell
31:51
until
31:52
a
31:52
soft
31:53
reboot
31:53
legacy
31:53
sequel
31:54
called
31:54
Evil
31:55
Dead
31:55
was
31:55
released
31:56
in
31:56
2013,
31:57
which
31:57
features
31:57
a
31:58
cameo
31:58
from
31:58
Bruce
31:58
Campbell
31:59
and
31:59
then
32:00
Evil
32:00
Dead
32:00
Rise
32:01
came
32:01
out
32:01
in
32:01
2023.
32:04
Evil
32:04
Dead
32:04
2
32:05
takes
32:05
the
32:05
best
32:06
of
32:06
the
32:06
Evil
32:06
Dead
32:07
and
32:07
hones
32:07
it
32:08
and
32:08
tightens
32:08
it.
32:09
It's
32:09
got
32:09
a
32:09
bigger
32:10
budget,
32:10
the
32:10
same
32:11
people
32:11
behind
32:11
the
32:11
scenes
32:12
more
32:12
or
32:12
less,
32:13
and
32:13
Bruce
32:13
Campbell
32:14
just
32:14
proving
32:14
he
32:15
can
32:15
do
32:15
slapstick
32:16
as
32:16
well
32:16
as
32:17
visceral
32:17
horror.
32:18
The
32:18
movie
32:19
acts
32:19
as
32:19
a
32:19
semi
32:20
remake,
32:20
throwing
32:21
continuity
32:22
out
32:22
the
32:22
window
32:23
and
32:23
foregoing
32:23
Many
32:24
of
32:24
the
32:24
details
32:24
the
32:25
first
32:25
film
32:25
established
32:26
almost
32:27
as
32:27
if
32:27
this
32:28
is
32:28
someone
32:28
else's
32:29
side
32:29
of
32:29
the
32:29
story.
32:31
This
32:31
is
32:31
the
32:31
same
32:31
movie
32:32
in
32:32
so
32:32
many
32:32
ways,
32:33
but
32:33
also
32:33
so
32:34
very
32:34
different.
32:35
It's
32:35
more
32:35
professional,
32:36
more
32:36
polished.
32:37
The
32:37
effects
32:38
aren't
32:38
as
32:38
gory,
32:38
but
32:39
they
32:39
are
32:39
ever
32:39
so
32:39
much
32:40
more
32:40
impressive.
32:41
Expertly
32:42
walking
32:42
that
32:42
line
32:43
between
32:43
comedy
32:43
and
32:44
horror,
32:45
the
32:45
end
32:45
of
32:45
Evil
32:46
Dead
32:46
2
32:46
also
32:47
brought
32:47
the
32:47
end
32:47
of
32:48
the
32:48
renaissance
32:48
pictured
32:49
partnership
32:49
as
32:49
we
32:50
knew
32:50
it.
32:51
Bruce
32:51
Campbell
32:51
was
32:51
primarily
32:52
an
32:52
actor
32:52
and
32:53
Sam
32:53
Raimi
32:53
was
32:54
starting
32:54
to
32:54
make
32:54
waves
32:54
for
32:55
his
32:55
original
32:55
and
32:55
interesting
32:56
ideas,
32:57
which
32:57
probably
32:57
wouldn't
32:58
also
32:58
include
32:58
a
32:59
role
32:59
for
32:59
Campbell.
33:00
Campbell
33:01
moved
33:01
to
33:01
California
33:01
to
33:02
pursue
33:02
his
33:02
acting
33:02
career
33:03
and
33:03
Sam
33:04
Raimi
33:04
sold
33:05
a
33:05
story
33:05
idea
33:05
to
33:06
Universal,
33:06
who
33:07
entered
33:07
a
33:07
production
33:08
deal
33:08
with
33:08
Sam
33:09
Raimi
33:09
and
33:09
Rob
33:09
Tapered.
33:10
Raimi
33:11
always
33:11
wanted
33:12
to
33:12
make
33:12
a
33:12
movie
33:13
about
33:13
Pulp,
33:14
the
33:14
Shadow,
33:14
but
33:15
couldn't
33:15
get
33:15
the
33:15
rights.
33:16
Instead,
33:17
he
33:17
would
33:17
create
33:18
the
33:18
movie
33:18
that
33:18
would
33:18
become
33:19
a
33:19
critical
33:19
and
33:19
commercial
33:20
success
33:21
and
33:21
solidify
33:22
his
33:22
career.
33:23
And
33:23
that
33:23
movie
33:24
was
33:24
Darkman.
33:25
Robert
33:26
Kurtzman,
33:26
Greg
33:27
Nicotero
33:27
and
33:28
Howard
33:28
Berger,
33:29
who
33:29
worked
33:29
on
33:29
the
33:29
special
33:30
makeup
33:30
effects
33:30
on
33:31
Evil
33:31
Dead
33:31
2,
33:32
went
33:32
on
33:32
to
33:32
form
33:33
their
33:33
own
33:33
special
33:33
effects
33:34
company,
33:34
KMB
33:35
EFX
33:36
Group.
33:36
Kurtzman
33:37
would
33:37
go
33:38
on
33:38
to
33:38
write
33:38
the
33:38
story
33:38
and
33:39
be
33:39
the
33:39
makeup
33:39

33:40
supervisor
33:40
Armed
33:41
From
33:41
Dusk
33:41
Till
33:41
dawn
33:42
and
33:42
do
33:42
the
33:43
special
33:43
makeup
33:43
effects
33:44
on
33:44
and
33:44
direct
33:44
Wishmaster
33:46
and
33:46
they're
33:46
both
33:46
previous
33:47
episodes
33:47
of
33:47
this
33:48
podcast.
33:49
This
33:49
movie
33:50
undoubtedly
33:50
made
33:50
Sam
33:51
Raimi
33:51
a
33:51
director
33:52
to
33:52
watch,
33:52
but
33:53
also
33:53
gave
33:53
cult
33:54
horror
33:54
one
33:54
of
33:54
its
33:55
most
33:55
endearing
33:55
heroes
33:56
in
33:56
Ash
33:56
Williams.
33:57
And
33:57
Bruce
33:58
Campbell
33:58
fully
33:59
embraced
33:59
that
33:59
king
34:00
of
34:00
horror
34:00
label.
34:01
Ash
34:01
is
34:02
more
34:02
fleshed
34:02
out
34:02
this
34:03
time
34:03
around.
34:03
He's
34:04
an
34:04
old
34:04
fashioned
34:04
matinee
34:05
idol,
34:06
overly
34:06
confident,
34:07
wisecracking
34:08
and
34:08
synonymizes
34:09
the
34:09
franchise
34:09
so
34:10
much
34:10
that
34:11
it
34:11
never
34:11
seems
34:11
to
34:11
work
34:12
without
34:12
him.
34:13
The
34:13
scene
34:13
where
34:13
the
34:14
entity
34:14
chases
34:14
him
34:15
around
34:15
the
34:15
house
34:15
only
34:16
to
34:16
lose
34:16
sight
34:16
of
34:16
him
34:16
and
34:17
give
34:17
up
34:17
shouldn't
34:18
work
34:18
in
34:18
a
34:18
horror
34:19
movie.
34:19
And
34:19
yet
34:20
here
34:20
it
34:20
does.
34:20
Because
34:21
Bruce
34:21
Campbell
34:21
is
34:22
so
34:22
damn
34:22
good.
34:23
He
34:23
is
34:24
Evil
34:24
Dead
34:24
and
34:25
Evil
34:25
Dead
34:25
is
34:26
him.
34:27
Crimewave
34:28
was
34:28
such
34:28
a
34:28
huge
34:29
disappointment
34:29
for
34:29
Sam
34:30
Raimi
34:30
that
34:30
Evil
34:31
Dead
34:31
2
34:31
was
34:31
seen
34:32
as
34:32
a
34:32
last
34:32
ditch
34:33
attempt
34:33
to
34:33
prove
34:33
himself.
34:34
It
34:34
was
34:34
almost
34:35
a
34:35
go
34:35
for
34:35
broke
34:36
attempt.
34:37
Throwing
34:37
everything
34:37
at
34:38
the
34:38
screen
34:38
and
34:38
pretty
34:39
much
34:39
crab
34:39
everything
34:40
sticking
34:41
is
34:41
some
34:42
sort
34:42
of
34:42
achievement.
34:43
This
34:43
was
34:44
one
34:44
of
34:44
the
34:44
first
34:44
out
34:45
and
34:45
out
34:45
horror
34:45
movies
34:46
I
34:46
ever
34:46
saw
34:46
and
34:47
I
34:47
loved
34:47
it.
34:48
I
34:48
always
34:48
say
34:48
I'm
34:49
not
34:49
a
34:49
horror
34:49
girly
34:50
and
34:50
yet
34:50
this
34:50
is
34:50
my
34:51
sort
34:51
of
34:51
thing.
34:51
The
34:52
effects
34:52
hold
34:52
up
34:53
really
34:53
well.
34:53
The
34:53
makeup
34:54
is
34:54
great,
34:54
it's
34:54
funny,
34:55
it's
34:55
scary
34:56
enough
34:56
to
34:56
be
34:56
scary
34:57
enough.
34:58
Sam
34:58
Raimi
34:58
had
34:59
the
34:59
talent
34:59
to
34:59
make
34:59
the
35:00
Evil
35:00
Dead
35:00
and
35:01
then
35:01
come
35:01
back
35:01
and
35:02
reimagine
35:02
his
35:02
own
35:03
story
35:03
into
35:04
something
35:04
bigger.
35:05
Hone
35:05
his
35:05
talents
35:06
and
35:06
15
35:07
years
35:07
later,
35:08
get
35:08
the
35:08
Spider
35:09
man
35:09
trilogy.
35:10
How
35:10
did
35:10
that
35:10
happen?
35:11
When
35:11
he's
35:12
not
35:12
constrained
35:12
by
35:13
studio
35:13
interference,
35:14
he
35:14
makes
35:14
great
35:15
movies.
35:16
Bruce
35:16
Campbell
35:17
will
35:17
forever
35:17
be
35:17
known
35:18
as
35:18
Ash.
35:18
And
35:18
that's
35:19
no
35:19
bad
35:19
thing.
35:20
He
35:20
holds
35:20
a
35:20
unique
35:21
place
35:21
in
35:21
cinema
35:22
history.
35:22
A
35:23
leading
35:23
man
35:23
with
35:24
leading
35:24
man
35:24
looks
35:24
and
35:25
charisma
35:25
who
35:26
could
35:26
have
35:26
become
35:26
a
35:27
list.
35:27
But
35:27
he's
35:28
happy
35:28
where
35:28
he
35:28
is,
35:29
and
35:29
he
35:29
never
35:29
took
35:29
his
35:30
fame
35:30
for
35:30
granted.
35:32
Sometimes
35:32
movies
35:32
happen
35:33
because
35:33
of
35:33
luck,
35:34
but
35:34
sometimes
35:35
it's
35:35
because
35:35
something
35:35
else
35:36
didn't
35:36
happen.
35:37
Evil
35:37
Dead
35:38
2
35:38
took
35:38
the
35:38
small
35:38
amount
35:39
of
35:39
money
35:39
it
35:39
had
35:40
and
35:40
threw
35:40
everything
35:41
on
35:41
the
35:41
screen.
35:42
It's
35:42
imaginative,
35:43
vibrant
35:44
and
35:44
cartoonish.
35:45
The
35:45
perfect
35:46
movie
35:46
to
35:46
watch
35:46
this
35:47
Halloween.
35:48
No,
35:49
actually
35:49
not
35:49
perfect.
35:51
Groovy.
35:53
Thank
35:53
you
35:53
for
35:54
listening.
35:54
