With Halloween upon us once again, the thoughts of a loyal fanbase are returning to Ash and his adventures with the Book of the Dead. And as many of them remember, legendary director Sam Raimi was walking around Comic-Con a few months ago telling us and the massive audience in Hall H that when his brother Ivan was coming to visit in August, they had plans to finally sit down and write a fourth “Evil Dead” flick.

Part of that plan, naturally, involves accounting for the fact that the last "Evil Dead" movie got released in 1992. Read more...
