It’s kind of odd to me that they’d record all new commentary tracks for EVIL DEAD (or for any movie that already has one, for that matter). I mean, what else is there to say? Don’t get me wrong, I can listen to Bruce Campbell all day, but I just wonder how he and Sam Raimi are going to find new ways to talk about something they’ve probably talked to death already.
In any event, we’ve got a sample of that new commentary for your ear-holes below. This comes from the Blu-ray release of the classic splatterfest, which hits on AUGUST 31st. Campbell talks about how filming EVIL DEAD traumatized him in a significant way.
Here’s a refresher on what can be expected from the Blu-ray: For the release, two all-new 1080p anamorphic transfers in 1.85 and the original director-composed 1.33 aspect ratio, have been prepared and personally supervised by director/writer Raimi, presented in high-resolution Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio, as well as a brand new commentary track with Raimi, producer Robert Tapert and star Bruce “Ash” Campbell! In addition, many of the bonus features, released on previous DVD editions, will once again be available on a special, limited edition DVD included with the Blu-ray.
