EVIL DEAD reviewed by Dr. AC

So I guess this is happening.  I guess we're going to have to see the remake of EVIL DEAD.  Too many signs have been pointing towards it:

The film is name-checked and pimped in this week's episode of SciFy's Face Off (go J. Anthony!  Final Four: time to bring the big guns!)

Charlie Athanas stirs up the interfacewebs by posting rumors of Army of Darkness 2.

And the good Doctor, our friend and emeritus founding member, has given his stamp of approval from a pre-screening at SXSW.

Read his literate and spoiler-free review here.  Return to this blog often.

Now to convince Grandma and/or Grandpa Morlock to mind the baby evil one and convince Lady Morlock that an afternoon with Deadites but NO BRUCE CAMPBELL is not squandering precious moments of child-less freedom.

Happy Ash Wednesday!

Happy Ash Wednesday

Had almost forgotten that today is an important holiday. Thanks to Trelbee and Stephanie for celebrating with me.

His name is Bruce...

I know that everyone is gearing up for what the studios tell us could be a huge summer for movies. And I know all the fanboys out there are frothing at the mouth over Iron Man this week, Batman later in the summer, not to mention the Hulk, Raiders of the Lost Ark IV, Speed Racer, just to name a few. However, for my money, the movie event of the year will not be released this summer, but is currently set for an October release.



This is the one that gets me all revved up.

For all you Bruce Campbell fans, there is a wonderful interview here. Check it out. Here are just a couple of choice quotes.

Q: "Star Trek" or "Star Wars"?

A: "Star Trek." The original ... with William Shatner. Everything else blows.

Q: Your ideal brain food?

A: It's a plant that grows from the ground. I refuse to identify it.

Great stuff. For more info check out www.bruce-campbell.com.

Peace.
