Evil Dead 4

Robert Tapert, long time producer and friend of Sam Raimi, has announced this week that both him and Raimi are looking at a potential script for either an Evil Dead 4 or reboot of the original.

This has been muted for some time now and Raimi always seems to tantalise fans with potential progress on expanding the Evil Dead trilogy but we've never had anything as concrete as this from Tapert.

It's interesting if nothing else, an Evil Dead 4 movie would have to include Ash (Bruce Campbell) for me whereas a reboot, which seems to be the 'in thing' at the moment would have to be treated very carefully indeed and would need a new lead.

At the moment I'm filing this under the rumour mill but you never know, we could see Ash battling hordes of deadites again very soon and that would be......Groovy.
