Bruce Campbell Reveals His Most “Disturbing” Fan Interaction After Evil Dead Fame
Exclusive: Bruce Campbell reflects on the most disturbing interaction he's had with an Evil Dead fan stemming from a different kind of book.
Evil Dead
Created by Sam Raimi, Evil Dead is a horror-comedy franchise that began with the release of the original film, The Evil Dead, in 1981. The series follows protagonist Ashley "Ash" Williams as he and his friends venture into a cabin for a vacation only to discover it harbors a demonic book that can summon terrifying creatures known as Deadites, hell-bent on torturing and slaying them all. As the series progresses, Ash becomes more of a masculine B-movie action hero until the soft reboot helmed by Eli Roth occurs, which shifts the franchise deeper into its horror roots.
