Another New Evil Dead Movie Is Escaping the Basement

Evil Dead’s cackling Deadites can never truly be defeated, which means there’ll always be fresh Evil Dead stories to tell—even without horror icon Bruce Campbell playing the lead, as last year’s excellent Evil Dead Rise proved. A few months back, an Evil Dead “spin-off” was announced, and now there’s news of a whole new movie on the way too.

Deadline broke the news that Francis Galluppi will write and direct a new Evil Dead movie for Ghost House Pictures, the production company headed up by Evil Dead OGs Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert. There are zero plot details to share, though the trade notes it’s “an original story that Galluppi developed and brought to Raimi and team,” and shares an enthusiastic statement from Raimi himself: “Francis Galluppi is a storyteller who knows when to keep us waiting in simmering tension and when to hit us with explosive violence. He is a director that shows uncommon control in his feature debut.”

Raimi is ahead of the curve on Galluppi, whose debut feature—The Last Stop in Yuma County, about a traveling salesman who encounters two vicious bank robbers—premiered at Fantastic Fest last fall to positive reviews, but won’t hit theaters until May 10. As for that Evil Dead spin-off, it’s being created by another Fantastic Fest breakout: French filmmaker Sébastien Vaniček, whose creepy Infested (which io9 called “Attack the Block with spiders”) arrives on Shudder today.
