One of the series I look forward to the most every week is Starz’s ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ and I know I’m not alone. I have to say, it is one of the best series on television. Few people in this world have the charisma that Bruce Campbell, the star of the series, has. Luckily, we are going to be seeing a lot more of ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’, Bruce Campbell and the fantastic cast. Starz has just renewed the series for season 3 and that’s very “groovy”.
The horror-comedy series follows Ash Williams (Campbell), his side-kicks Pablo (Ray Santiago) and Kelly (Dana DeLorenzo) as they go head-to-head against deadites, demons and Ash’s arch-rival Ruby (Lucy Lawless). This season Ted Raimi, Lee Majors and Michelle Hurd joined the cast as Ash’s childhood friend, Ash’s father and his high school sweetheart. Now, Ash, Pablo and Kelly have left Jacksonville to return to Ash’s home town where Ruby has gotten herself in a bit of trouble.
Based on the 1981 cult classic ‘The Evil Dead’, the series uses flashbacks to link to the films in an amazing way. Sam Raimi who was involved in the original ‘Evil Dead’ film, serves as a writer and producer for ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’, as well as its creator.
If you haven’t seen ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ I recommend that you stop what you are doing right now and go binge watch it. You can stream past episodes on Amazon now or pick up the first season on Blu-ray and DVD. Just be sure not to miss ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’ on Sunday nights on Starz.
