Oh, Sam Raimi. Why\u00a0must you taunt me so?<\/p>\n
I’ve long been a fan of the director’s work since I first saw Evil Dead 2<\/strong> in college in 1988. His unique and energetic visual style places him as one of the very few directors whose work can be distinquished by just watching a few moments of one of his films. Also, in conjunction with his longtime friend actor Bruce Campbell, he has created one of the great cult classic film franchises- the Evil Dead<\/strong> series.<\/p>\n Now, according to this interview<\/a>, it seems that any planning Raimi had hoped to do for an announced<\/a>\u00a0fourth Evil Dead<\/strong> installment with his screenwriting collaborator brother Ivan Raimi has been pushed aside in finishing up his current horror film, Drag Me To Hell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n I read this article online that [referred to those Comic-Con quotes] and was like, \u2018Raimi promises again. He\u2019s not going to deliver\u2019. And I was like, \u2018Oh my God, you guys know me so well.\u2019 I\u2019m honored some people want to see it, and I\u2019d like to do it, and one day I will. I just don\u2019t know when.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Unfortunately, after Raimi finishes work on Drag Me To Hell<\/strong>, he will probably launch into his preperation for the next two Spider-Man<\/strong> movies<\/a> that Sony wants. This is sure to gobble up two to three years\u00a0of his time. He also still has that development deal with Paramount for relaunching<\/a> their Jack Ryan franchise. Hopes for seeing an Evil Dead 4<\/strong> anytime in the next five years seem pretty dim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
