Well, the Evil Dead Remake Looks Authentic, I Guess
 |
The first picture from The Evil Dead remake surfaced at NYCC, and it features a Deadite in the basement, echoing the scene in Evil Dead 2 when Henrietta… is in the basement. So really, all that’s changed here is that instead of an old lady in the basement, there’s a young lady in the basement. They’re both dead and evil, and they’re both in the basement. Whether this hints that the new Evil Dead will be a cash-grab soullesslly aping the original or a delightfully accurate homage to the original classic is up to you, I guess. (Via EW)
