Coming this April is the latest EVIL DEAD film from director Lee Cronin, who brought us THE HOLE IN THE GROUND, and producer Bruce Campbell teased just yesterday, “I’ve seen the movie in all of its glory and in case you’re wondering, yes it is amazing… and yes, it is the scariest one yet.”
Gabrielle Echols (Reminiscence), Morgan Davies (The End) and Nell Fisher (Splendid Isolation) will star in the new movie alongside Alyssa Sutherland and Lily Sullivan.
Here’s the official plot synopsis for EVIL DEAD RISE…
“In the fifth Evil Dead film, a road-weary Beth pays an overdue visit to her older sister Ellie, who is raising three kids on her own in a cramped L.A apartment. The sisters’ reunion is cut short by the discovery of a mysterious book deep in the bowels of Ellie’s building, giving rise to flesh-possessing demons, and thrusting Beth into a primal battle for survival as she is faced with the most nightmarish version of motherhood imaginable.”
Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and Robert Tapert are producing EVIL DEAD RISE. According to Campbell, the three have been “very involved” in the project every step of the way.
