Yes, my friends...another edition! (thankfully with the 1.33:1 version too!)
Starz/Anchor Bay Press Release:
Another Evil Dead DVD release? You bet your Ash!
THE EVIL DEAD ULTIMATE EDITION
GETS THE ³ANCHOR BAY COLLECTION² TREATMENT WITH 3-DISC DVD SET
Sam Raimi¹s legendary horror classic rises December 18th with reconstructed
and restored scenes for the first time ever
TORONTO, ON * Just when you thought you¹d seen it all in The Evil Dead,
Anchor Bay Entertainment will commemorate the film¹s 25th anniversary with
the all-new, three-disc The Evil Dead Ultimate Edition on December 18th,
just in time for the holidays, making it the ³ultimate² stocking-stuffer for
the horror fans in your life. The Evil Dead Ultimate Edition will be
released under the prestigious ³Anchor Bay Collection² brand, which has
previously released comprehensive DVD editions of such horror classics as
Re-Animator, Phantasm and Hellraiser.
Over the years, Anchor Bay Entertainment has released numerous special
editions of The Evil Dead, each one more dynamic and diabolical than the one
that preceded it, in an effort to continually satiate and satisfy the
ravenous hunger of the film¹s worldwide legion of fans. The Evil Dead
Ultimate Edition tops -- and buries -- them all! Celebrate the original Sam
Raimi masterpiece with two versions of the movie (for years, fans have
demanded the release of the original full-frame version), six new
featurettes that revisit the film¹s cast, crew, biggest fans and enduring
legacy, plus never-before-seen production footage, outtakes and deleted
scenes, reconstructed and restored specifically for this edition! That¹s
enough to fill several Necronomicons!
Upon its release in 1982, The Evil Dead was immediately hailed as a new
horror classic. Best-selling author Stephen King called the film ³the most
ferociously original horror film of the year.² In the ensuing quarter of a
century, The Evil Dead is one of the most influential, landmark horror films
of all time.
The film launched the careers of writer/director Sam Raimi (the Spider-Man
trilogy, Darkman, The Quick and the Dead), producer Robert Tapert (³Xena:
Warrior Princess,² The Grudge, the Spider-Man trilogy) and executive
producer/leading man Bruce Campbell (Bubba Ho-Tep, Sky High, Man With the
Screaming Brain).
Five college friends, including Ash (Campbell) drive to a remote cabin in
the woods for a weekend of fun. Little do they realize that their fun will
soon turn to fear, as an unstoppable supernatural force has been unleashed
and surrounds the woods around them. One by one, they fall victim to the
demonic forces at large, resurrected as murderous demons which can only be
destroyed by dismemberment. Easier said than done. Soon, only Ash is left to
combat the evil before it consumes the world. It¹ll be a fight to the death
S and to the undeath.
The film¹s mammoth success has thus far inspired two equally popular
sequels, Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn and Army of Darkness, as well as a series
of popular video games with rumors of an upcoming remake produced by Raimi
and Tapert¹s Ghost House Pictures.
The Evil Dead also stars Ellen Sandweiss (Satan¹s Playground, Brutal
Massacre: A Comedy, the upcoming The Dread), Betsy Baker (the upcoming
Witches¹ Night) and Sarah York (the upcoming Brutal Massacre: A Comedy).
Each disc in the Evil Dead Ultimate Edition contains extensive bonus

never-before-seen footage:
