The grand winner of our Deadite Of The Day contest is Trent Shy who submitted one hell of a claymation trailer for the new Evil Dead. Picking a winner wasn’t easy, we had 10 GREAT entries!!! But I feel that Trent’s efforts (combined with the fact that he qualifies for the grand prize because he lives in the US – many didn’t) seal the deal. In case you missed them – here are the prior winners! Deadite #1 Deadite #2 Deadite #3 Deadite #4 Deadite #5 Deadite #7 Deadite #8 Deadite #9 and Deadite #10 READ MORE
It’s now time for the final entry of our Deadite Of The Day contest. As we stated before (head inside for the full list of rules)! Winners will be announced daily from March 25th – April 5th (weekends excluded). And well, April 5th is today. Again, it’s kind of a bummer because this has actually been very rewarding for me. It’s a lot of fun to share these creations with the world and make true horror fans happy. READ MORE
It’s time we started winding down our Deadite Of The Day contest. As we stated before (head inside for the full list of rules)! Winners will be announced daily from March 25th – April 5th (weekends excluded), and that means we are no longer open for submissions. Which makes me sort of sad, because this has actually been very rewarding for me. It’s a lot of fun to share these creations with the world and make true horror fans happy. READ MORE
Created by Hartter Art, we conclude our Evil Dead Month with a look at a faux vintage 1980′s Evil Dead-inspired Lincoln Logs play set. What my 8-year-old self would have done for this to have really existed. READ MORE

One of The Evil Dead series’ greatest assets is its host of Deadites, possessed humans who want nothing more than to possess more humans through vague, ever changing means. Some are humanoid, some are monstrous, some are trees, and some are goats. But all of them are awesome. And while they don’t make much sense and lack consistency even within individual films, we love them all the same. Especially the goat. Here is our rundown of Deadites from the entire Evil Dead series, excluding all videogames, comic books, and fan fiction. But including Drag Me to Hell because c’mon. READ MORE
Keeping up with our Evil Dead Month here on Bloody Disgusting, YouTube user “Badideaonline” has shared a brilliant fan-made trailer for Sam Raimi’s The Evil Dead trilogy. READ MORE
With Sam Raimi’s Oz the Great and Powerful in theaters March 8, and the remake of his The Evil Dead in theaters April 5, the now A-list director has been in the press spotlight quite a bit. Within the range of questions, a can of worms was opened when he sort of implied that he and his older brother would begin working on a script for Evil Dead 4 this summer. He went on to further clarify that he really had nothing else to work on at the moment, and being that the fans wanted it, why the heck now? It sounded encouraging. READ MORE
Continuing Evil Dead Month here on Bloody Disgusting, both Bruce Campbell, best known as “Ash” in the Sam Raimi franchise, and Fede Alvarez, who directed the forthcoming remake, shared the following fan illustrated The Evil Dead poster, which celebrated Sam Raimi’s entire franchise. READ MORE
I wanted to start Evil Dead Month off with a bang and I figured there’d be no better way to do that than to lay my cards out on the table and rank the films in my order of preference. And I’ll say it – I fully expect some of you to hate me after this, because I make one choice that I’m sure 99% of you won’t be down with. READ MORE
The Virgin Fake Film Festival is upon us, thus Gigi Saul Guerrero, Luke Bramley, and Raynor Shima teamed together to recreated Sam Raimi’s classic 1981 Evil Dead in 60 seconds! READ MORE
A lot of you are scared FilmDistrict’s Evil Dead, the Fede Alvarez-directed remake of Sam Raimi’s cult classic 1981. Not me. I think it looks awesome! However, there’s a new fan-made mash-up – by “BadIdeaOnline” – that marries the tone and sound of the new trailer with images from the original Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2. Maybe it’ll help ease the transition from old to new for you? READ MORE
On Friday, October 22, 2004 Bloody Disgusting was sitting on major news that New Line Cinema was in final talks to acquire the rights to the “Ash” character (donned by Bruce Campbell) from Sam Raimi’s The Evil Dead franchise (The Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness). By that Sunday, October 24, Ghost House Pictures’ J-Horror The Grudge remake had pulled in a whopping $39 million. Our sources tell us that Raimi didn’t even courtesy call New Line before immediately announcing that he’d next be producing a remake of The Evil Dead, his 1981 cult classic that started his career. The New Line deal died the second the remake announcement hit, which will finally come into fruition on April 12 when FilmDistrict releases the Fed Alvarez-directed reboot. READ MORE
