Come get some this October as Studiocanal will allow us to experience fear in ultra high definition. This will come with the first UK 4K release of the reboot of the classic Evil Dead.
It’s time to come get some! STUDIOCANAL presents Fede Álvarez’s smash hit 2013 standalone horror sequel EVIL DEAD – starring Jane Levy and Shiloh Fernandez. The film makes its UK UHD debut on 19th October, with a 2-disc Collector’s Edition featuring a 4K restoration. Also included are blood-curdling new artwork by Krishna Bala Shenoi, the Theatrical and Unrated cuts of the film, a host of extras, and a 64-page booklet. The release includes an O-ring with all the tech specs. Therefore, this allows the beautifully designed slipcase beneath to be clean.
Set decades after Sam Raimi’s legendary 1981 horror classic The Evil Dead, director Álvarez’s version amps up the terror. It also ladles on the gore in this gleefully nasty continuation of the Cabin in the Woods chiller series. This time, a woman takes center stage among the deadites. Jane Levy (Don’t Breathe) is fantastic as a recovering addict facing the fight of her life. The film launched Álvarez (Alien: Romulus) as a horror director of note. It also breathed new life into the EVIL DEAD franchise. As a result, a TV series Ash vs Evil Dead came in 2015, EVIL DEAD RISE was released in 2023, and the eagerly awaited EVIL DEAD BURN is in cinemas now.

A BOX OFFICE HIT
Produced by the makers of the notorious 1981 film (Raimi, Bruce Campbell, and Rob Tapert), EVIL DEAD was a box office hit, pulling in nearly $100 million, and is as gruesome as the original, with Entertainment Weekly saying the ‘delirious gross-out scenes… go further than any mainstream picture I can think of’. Billed as ‘the most terrifying film you will ever experience’, watching it in groovy 4K, that claim is not far off the mark. It’s an absolute must for anyone who enjoys films from the comfort of behind the sofa.
THE PREMISE
Mia, a recovering drug addict, asks her brother and their friends to accompany her to a remote forest cabin to help her through withdrawal. When one of her friends, Eric, finds a Book of the Dead and reads aloud from it, he awakens an ancient demon that possesses Mia and unleashes hell…
