From my vintage collection: Evil Dead 2 video store standee (1988). ⚡️💞 This is from a Video Ezy store in Australia, hence the yellow logo. 😉 I remember watching it for the first time with a buddy back in the early 90s. It was the heavily censored version, but it was still jaw-dropping. We had seen nothing like it. 😎 #retropopculture #evildead #ashwilliams #deadites #necronomicon #bookofthedead #80s #80shorror

Bruce Campbell is my spirit animal.

My life has been shaped and is all the more complete thanks to the Evil Dead and TV series.

Anyway... a much anticipated new live action film in the series is coming out sooooon (contains child like squeals).

Doing my best to manage my expectations.

Of all the series Evil Dead 2 remains my favourite. Sill anything new being added to the cannon is gotta be worth the watch at least.

Let's hope they get this right and it retains the same sense of gory, goofy and wacky.

The 2013 "reboot" was.. OK. Just that. It had a few effective moments but it was missing Riami's love of comedy and it felt too much like generic mid 2000s horror.

Bruce shared an image from the upcoming film on the Birdsite.

Bruce, by all the Eldritch Gods pls come to Mastodon - it's lovely here. Is he here yet?
