Sam Raimi's bringing an 'Evil Dead' series to TV in 2015


In a world where any show with "The" and "Dead" in the title is a runaway success comes, er, another one. That's because Starz has teamed up with Sam Raimi to produce a new TV series that'll follow cult movie trilogy The Evil Dead.

The 10-part show will chronicle the later life of square-jawed hero Ash (Bruce Campbell) who will once again be called upon to battle the forces of Deadites. Given that the press release mentions Ash's role as a "stock boy," it's easy to presume that the character will be still working at the S-Mart where he was left at the end of Army of Darkness - rather than the post-apocalyptic future we saw in the director's cut of the same movie.
