Ok you crazy deadites, we can jump up and down for joy now that it has been confirmed that the long awaited sequel/remake for the Evil Dead movies in officially in the works!

As it turns out, it will in fact be a remake of sorts.. but what does that mean when Evil Dead 2 was in actuality a remake of Evil Dead 1?

Who knows at this point, it’s still too early in the game. But all that matters is that the project is a go!

Actor Bruce Campbell (Ash) confirmed the rumors about the new Evil Dead via his twitter account over the weekend, saying “Believe in the remake, dawg! The project is real. In the works. Cool as hell. Scary as hell.”

Taking over the director duties is Federico Alvarez, who is currently in Detroit overseeing the production which has already started!

The film will be an indie style like the first two films and will be under the banners of Ghost House and Mandate Pictures.

How cool is that? I’m so excited, I can’t wait!

Here’s hoping Bruce is at least IN the movie… even if it’s as a smaller character. Personally, I’d love to see Bruce as a deadite! SO COOL!
