    Army of Darkness 2



    Last week, word came that Sam Raimi was contemplating writing anotherEvil Dead movie, which people logically assumed would be Evil Dead 4, but now his longtime producing partner Rob Tapert has clarified that if it were to happen (and that's still a big "if"), it would more accurately beArmy of Darkness 2. This distinction might seem nitpicky, given Army of Darkness was a sequel to Evil Dead 2, but it actually makes sense, givenArmy of Darkness's time-travel departure from the first two Evil Deadfilms and the fact that a new Raimi entry would probably want to differentiate itself from the new Evil Dead franchise. Yes, I said "franchise." For more on that, read on.
    The new Evil Dead remake won't hit theaters until April 5, but writer-director Fede Alvarez is apparently already starting work on the script for a sequel. He announced as much in a panel discussion at the SXSW Film Festival, and producer Bruce Campbell (star of the original Evil Dead trilogy) later chimed in that he envisioned the upcoming Evil Dead as the start of another standalone trilogy. Suffice it to say, they're pretty confident in their new film.
