The Ash vs Evil Dead Trailer is Groovy, Baby
8 hours ago | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
35 years ago, a young aspiring filmmaker named Sam Raimi and his ragtag team of friends, including the Joel half of the Coen Brothers, used their limited resources to craft one of the greatest horror films of all time: The Evil Dead, a frenzied, frantic, fiercely original vision of pretty young people chopping each other up in a cabin in the woods, starring a then-unknown Bruce Campbell. Raimi and co. flaunted their Diy aesthetic, splashing gallons of blood and viscera all over everyone and everything. The film was, in Raimi’s own words, a “comedy of errors." It also ushered in a new era of indie horror filmmaking, and engendered a new horror trope (later skewered, with deft precision, by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, in The Cabin in the Woods). Now Raimi and Campbell have revived The Evil Dead as a television series for Starz called Ash vs Evil Dead »

7 hours ago | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Bob’s Burgers, which will begin its sixth season this September, has an impressive pedigree when it comes to guest voices.
