NECA Teases “Ash vs Evil Dead” Toys: First Image Revealed
NECA Toys, who happen to have one of the most entertaining Twitter feeds (they seriously don’t give a fuck), announced last night that they will be bringing a series of “Ash vs Evil Dead” toys to the market in 2016. They also teased a figure in the form of the eyeless demonic deadite that we’ve seen in trailers.
“Ash vs Evil Dead” premiered last night and, if Twitter has anything to say about it, was met with joy and acclaim from fans and viewers. You can read our own review of the first two episodes right here.
NECA is well known to horror fans for their vast array of licensed toys, figurines, and collectibles, including many horror titles such as Friday the 13th, Hellraiser, House of 1,000 Corpses, Beetlejuice, Evil Dead 2, Alien, Scream 4, Predator, etc… The list seriously goes on and on. It’s fantastic to see that they’ll be releasing the “Ash vs Evil Dead” toys as they clearly have the passion to do it justice.

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
