Sam Raimi Blocks Unauthorized 'Evil Dead' Sequel
Sam Raimi has prevailed in his effort to stop a production company from releasing an unauthorized sequel to his horror classic trilogy series The Evil Dead.
In May, Renaissance Pictures, formed in 1979 by Raimi, producer Robert Tapert and actor-producer Bruce Campbell for the purpose of making the first film, sued Award Pictures, which was in the midst of making Evil Dead 4: Consequences. The movie was alleged to be interfering with Raimi's plan to make his own sequel for Sony Pictures and FilmDistrict.After the lawsuit was filed, Award Pictures and its president Glenn MacCrae failed to respond in court.
MacCrae tells THR he still plans to challenge, but because of the non-responsiveness thus far in court, a California federal court last week entered a default judgment that permanently enjoins Award Pictures from using the "Evil Dead" trademark or using marketing materials that might confuse the public into believing that Award has rights to the title.

Bruce Campbell on 'Evil Dead' remake: 'I've seen it, it's fabulous'
Bruce Campbell's cult classic Evil Dead is the latest horror movie getting the remake treatment, but unlike previous horror re-dos this has the full support of Campbell, original director Sam Raimi and producer Robert G Tapert.
Digital Spy had a natter with Burn Notice star Campbell - a producer on the new Evil Dead - to discuss the movie and a potential reunion with Raimi on Oz.
You mentioned the Evil Dead movies earlier - there's a new remake coming out...
"There is. We're all involved as producers."
How is it going to be different from the original films?
"There's none of the original characters. We didn't want to compare apples with apples. It's a contemporary movie - just like Evil Dead was contemporary in 1979, this is contemporary for young adults now.
"It's basically five new kids who are going to have a really bad night with a brand new director - Fede Alvarez, who was handpicked by Sam Raimi. I've seen it already; I think it's definitely fabulous."
