Spoiler Alert: Tonight, everyone’s favorite S-Mart employee turned boomstick wielding chainsaw hand having deadite killin king, Ash (Bruce Campbell) is back and the Evil Dead does not stand a chance. The cult film classic turned Starz series, Ash Vs. Evil Dead, is back with the second episode. Now, Sam Raimi is opening up about the new series and what it is like going from the S-Mart, to Spider-Man, and back again.
The official plot synopsis for tonight’s all new episode of Ash vs. Evil Dead, titled “Bait,” reads:
“A special agent tracks Ash; Pablo tastes blood for the first time in a manic showdown; and a revelation changes Kelly's life forever.”
Recently, Sam Raimi spoke with Blastr about going from the cabin, to Spider-Man, and then back to the cabin again:
“Those guys are really who we are. It is everything else that's artificial. We have to pretend to be grown up and sophisticated while we make those Spider-Man movies or big-budget studio films. This is the easiest thing we could do, to be ourselves, have fun and try to make it for the fans. They never ask me for another Spider-Man movie, or a sequel to A Simple Plan. They only ever talk to me about this. We finally listened. And, in making the deal, the only important thing was we need complete creative control. We needed to give the fans what we think they wanted to see. Not to sound high-falutin', but we couldn't compromise on this.”
