Bruce Campbell does not care much for torture porn.

Now, were going back, I think, to horror thats a little more genuine.

Only this time, the revolution is going to be televisedand aired weekly on Starz, no less.

Plus, a few well-placed puns and punchlines never hurt either.

If youre interested in little rays of sunshine in your horror, were the show for you.

That blood and sun of which Campbell speaks isAsh vs.

Evil Dead, the unlikely but welcome resurrection of cinemas most beloved video nasty legacy.

Lets do it as TV!

It is just as much the selling point ofAsh vs.

Evil Deadas the prospect of Deadite zombies doing nasty things with nasty tree limbs to soon-to-be nasty corpses.

Hes Buster Keaton in blood.

We are like two comrades from the trenches, who really see a completely different side, she says.

Perhaps that is a major reason why Lawless has now officially joined the Evil Dead family.

I said the people who made this movie are sick misogynistic assholes, and they should be in prison!

And 12 years later, I was married to one of them.

Its the ultimate never say never.

Indeed,Ash vs.

Evil Deadhas become something of a reunion for almost all involved.

In 1998, Lawless married Rob Tapert, the producer on all threeEvil Deadfilms and executive producer ofAsh vs.

While Ted Raimi is not in the first season ofAsh vs.

So, its kind of a family business.

Sam is like Uncle Sam in LA.

Its how he feels out the comedy dialogue.

Are you ready for this!?

he kept shouting while Campbell wrenched in pain.

Apparently, not much has changed in this playfully extreme version of motivation.

Only hes a better filmmaker now, Campbell remarks.

So, he can torment me in more sophisticated ways.

But Im a clever little actor now, so I can duck around that sometimes, too.

Similarly, Campbell says the series is basically the companion and amalgam of the movies.

Believe it or not, hes a little more ignorant and even less open to new ideas.

And its playing out through representation of the average man, which is Ash.

Raimi takes a momentary pause while his brother Ivan begins to chuckle in preparation for the punchline.

Ivan then causes his brother to also break earnestness by adding, You play the cards youre dealt.

In fact, this tonal whiplash remains the best point-of-entry into the show and overall universes sense of humor.

This definitely held true for Lawless understanding of Ruby Knowby and her character beats.

That sequence presented an awkward and legitimate ethical dilemma for Lawless.

There was a scene where it started to crystallize for me what my role was, Lawless recalls.

She was sitting next to Jones while filming in a car and my character kind of hits on her.

It was so funny.

I saw it on the playback, and it was like Bam, now I get it.
