Horror movies getting made into TV shows is a bit of a thing
now. It’s hard to say when exactly
this trend started though I’d probably point mostly to 2013, that was when Bates Motel and Hannibal both premiered to shocking levels of success. Prior to that you’d had some
literary-to-TV examples like NBC’s Dracula,
AMC’s Walking Dead, or the horror
hodgepodge Penny Dreadful but since
2013 we’ve also enjoyed an Omen show,
a Scream show, an Exorcist show in the work, and today’s
subject: Ash vs. the Evil Dead.
I am a huge fan of the Evil Dead mythos; I love the
original trilogy, the comics are a blast, and I’ve even enjoyed some of the
video games they’ve made so when I heard “Evil Dead TV show” I was there. And season 1 turned out to be pretty
good, maybe not excellent and with a little too much padding but I thoroughly
enjoyed it. Now the time has come
for season 2 and along with some interesting news we’ve got a trailer and it
promises to double down on all the stuff that worked about season 1 and then some.
