The Big Picture The Evil Dead are set to rise again. Filmmaker Francis Galluppi has been tapped to write and direct a new movie in the immortal horror franchise. Deadline reports that Galluppi approached Evil Dead impresario Sam Raimi with a proposal for the franchise, which impressed him enough to metaphorically hand over the keys to his filmic Oldsmobile Delta 88.
What is 'The Evil Dead'? Close The Evil Dead franchise is proof that success can come from even the humblest beginnings. In this case, those humble beginnings are a movie made with five unknown actors , some goopy special effects, and less than $400,000 USD. The resulting 1981 film, The Evil Dead, told the tale of a group of friends who accidentally unleashed the evil of the ancient Necronomicon, and became a cult hit.
Francis Galluppi's Evil Dead project is in the early stages of development; no release date has yet been set. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
