SDCC 2015: ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ Trailer Premiere vs Comic-Con Smartypants

The boomstick of awesome was unleashed on a room full of primitive screwheads with the announcement of Ash vs Evil Dead the series debuting on Starz October 31—yes, Halloween! The fancypants Mr. Bruce Campbell (a.k.a. Ash Williams) joined Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi and Ivan Raimi as well as Executive Producer of the new series, Craig DiGregorio (Reaper, Chuck), and Lucy Lawless who will play Ruby Knowby.

Ash—I mean, Bruce—gave us some sugar and elaborated on what was referred to as the equivalent of an hours-long mega movie in episodes, “. . .They need to be let loose, like the savage beasts that they are. And the only way that we can bring you the carnage and mayhem that you truly deserve is to be on a network like Starz where they don’t have a problem with. . . anything.” To paraphrase the jabber-mouths, when asked if there will be more seasons—yes, as long as all the loyal jolly roger fans demonstrate to Starz how much they love the show. . . and Starz loves money, if you see what I’m driving at here, Einstein.

Now, let’s pause real quick so I can take my pants off and get comfortable here in these fruity-looms. Come on, you know you’re shocked that I was wearing any in the first place! Much better. Okay, you, shove a sock in your pie-hole and pay attention—your pants are optional—it’s time for a trailer break, baby.

Groovy.

Listen, babe, if that there wasn’t enough to get your motor running you might be a few marbles shy of a full knife drawer. But I sure can sympathize if you little monkeys are thirsty for more, so I’ll leave you with Starz’s coverage of the full SDCC panel. Enjoy it or—if you’re a soulless deadite—don’t. I’ve got a whiskey bottle to go marinate in so I don’t really give a hoot about your touchy-feelies, sweet-cheeks. But—and this ain’t just the pillow talk, baby—you’ll dig it.
