Raimi and Tapert were such instant fans of  Fede Alvarez\u2019s short film \u201cPanic Attack\u201d that they set up a blind deal  with the filmmaker and through that process have attached Fede Alvarez  to write and direct the film. Alvarez wrote the script with Rodo  Sayagues. Academy Award\u00ae winning screenwriter Diablo Cody is currently  doing revisions on the draft. Ghost House is committed to renewing the  franchise and has the film on the fast track.<\/p>\n<p>Raimi, Tapert and  Campbell will serve as producers. Ghost House Pictures partners Joe  Drake and Nathan Kahane will executive produce. Nicole Brown and J.R.  Young will oversee the project for Ghost House. Lionsgate will handle  international sales on the film.<\/p>\n<p>The three producing partners  commented, &#8220;We are committed to making this movie and are inspired by  the enduring popularity and enthusiasm for the \u2018Evil Dead\u2019 series. We  can&#8217;t wait to scare a new generation of moviegoers using filmmaking  techniques that were not available to us thirty years ago as well as  Fede bringing a fresh eye to the film\u2019s original elements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Raimi  wrote, directed and, along with Tapert and Campbell, produced the  original horror classic THE EVIL DEAD that tells the story of five  twenty-something friends who become holed up in a remote cabin where  they discover a Book Of The Dead. An archaeologist&#8217;s tape recording  reveals that the ancient text was discovered among the Khandarian ruins  of a Sumerian civilization. Playing the taped incantations, the youths  unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which  possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to  fight for survival. THE EVIL DEAD spawned a franchise with the equally  successful installments EVIL DEAD II and ARMY OF DARKNESS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Sam Raimi and original producing partners Rob Tapert and Bruce Campbell (who also starred in the original<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4249","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-geeky-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4249"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4249\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4251,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4249\/revisions\/4251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.geekworldordersite.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
