Two Evil Dead Movies Get Walmart-Exclusive Steelbooks
The Evil Dead film franchise holds the distinct honor of having not only a groovy remake, but also a downright terrifying recent standalone movie as well. Both of these films are getting new 4K steelbook editions from Shout Factory, so if you're looking to grow your horror collection with some stylish physical media, you can grab both of them right now. Evil Dead Rise will be out first on February 18 and is priced at $35, while the Evil Dead remake arrives on March 18 and is priced at $45.
Evil Dead (2013)
$45
Based on the Sam Raimi film that was first released in 1981, Evil Dead is technically a secret sequel to the original. Directed by Fede Alvarez--who recently helmed the pretty great Alien: Romulus--the 2013 Evil Dead movie goes all in on the Deadite horror of its source material. All the hallmarks of the franchise are here--a cabin in the woods, an ancient book you definitely shouldn't read aloud from, and primordial evils--and the movie is a stomach-churning experience with gruesome special and practical effects.
Special features for this release haven't been confirmed yet, but if it inherits the extras from the previous 4K release, you can expect audio commentary from the cast and crew, several mini-documentaries about Evil Dead's production, and promotional materials.
Evil Dead Rise
$35
Evil Dead Rise was released back in 2023, and this flick is one of the more terrifying entries in the series. Starring Lily Sullivan and Alyssa Sutherland as two estranged sisters trying to save their families from the Deadites, the movie is bloody, horrifying, and full of scares that'll make your heart skip a few beats.
In case you'd like to build a complete Evil Dead collection, the rest of the films starring Bruce Campbell as the boomstick-wielding Ash Campbell--and the TV series--are available on Blu-ray as well. These have been pretty popular over the decades, and the older movies combine horror with gruesome slapstick comedy. The 2015 TV series ran for 30 episodes across three seasons and was sadly canceled in 2018.
An animated revival of the TV series has been in development since 2022 and a new spin-off film, Evil Dead Burn, is scheduled to be released in 2026.
