Today, the final season of Starz’s “Ash vs. Evil Dead” arrives on DVD and Blu-ray, bringing the end to Ash Williams’ epic, decades-spanning story into your home video collection, right alongside The Evil Dead, Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness. With Bruce Campbell officially retired as Ash, it’s truly over this time, and we can’t help but be in a sappy mood all over again this week. Mind you, Campbell is still voicing Ash for an upcoming video game, but it seems pretty safe to say that we’ll never again see him actually on screen as the character.
Not to depress you too much, but YouTube’s xHeather360x just cut together an absolutely brilliant tribute to the entirety of the Evil Dead saga, particularly focused on the three seasons of “Ash vs. Evil Dead” that Starz gifted us with. It’s a wonderful “in memoriam” piece for the story of Ash Williams, cut together so well that you might even squeeze out a couple tears.
Sure, “Ash vs. Evil Dead” was more focused on over-the-top splatter and wonderfully immature laughs, but the heart and soul of the series is captured perfectly in this tribute.
Even Campbell himself shared it on Twitter, writing “Very groovy Evil Dead montage.”
