Evil Dead Trilogy - Releases & Re-Releases
« on: Aug 04, 2005 at 12:58 AM »
.....and the über-creepy foam packaging for Anchor Bay's Evil Dead 2: Book of the Dead 2 (due 9/7 and hand-crafted by Tom Sullivan himself - we have it on good authority that the book screams when you poke it in the eye!)...

Haha perhaps there should be a sign posted "beware" before anyone entering this forum  ;D

It's a nice set & will surely compliment your first Book of the Dead  ;)

only a few local collectors have purchased the first set.. so with that, it may be safe to say that i am referring/posting to the benefit of the greater good.

no spectacular news. it's just a simple bundling of the OOP set and the new one. i wonder how many of these sets will be produced.

I see, however, there is no news yet if the bundled OOP (Evil Dead1) was real deal? or just another re-release version?

Evil Dead Trilogy - Releases & Re-Releases
« Reply #13 on: Jun 07, 2006 at 08:29 AM »
list of Evil Dead Trilogy in R1 Format

Im just sharing the definitive information of Evil Dead Trilogy in R1 format.

It may sound stupid but somehow this marketing approach done by Anchorbay/Elite/Universal for Evil Dead trilogy DVD

1. Pave way to DVD multiple version releases.
2. Evil Dead R1 as I see it pioneered the world of "Double Dipping".
3. Book of Dead lead the dvd packaging innovation



Evil Dead 1

Year 1999 Elite Released Collector's Edition-OOP

Year 1999 Anchorbay Released Collector's Edition (This can be found in five covers and packaged at a DVD jewel case)-OOP

Year 2001 Anchorbay Released Limited Lunchbox Edition  (on-pack 1999 Anchorbay Released Collector's Edition)-Rare/OOP                             
*please take note that the said lunchbox is "DIFFERENT" from the limited# 5000 Lunchbox made by NECA


Year 2002 Anchorbay (Regular edition)

Year 2002 Anchorbay (Alternate Cover)-Rare/OOP

Year 2002 Anchorbay (Book of the Dead) Limited Edition-OOP

Year 2005 Anchorbay (Book of the Dead) - Re-release packed with Book of the Dead2



Evil Dead 2

Year 1998 Anchorbay (Skull Head Art)-Rare/OOP

Year 2000 Anchorbay Special Edition-(same cover art with the Limited Edition Tin)

Year 2000 Anchorbay Limited Edition Tin (limited to #50,000)-Rare/OOP

Year 2005 Anchorbay (Book of the Dead2) Limited Edition



Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness

There were 4 limited numbered R1 Army of Darkness released

Year 1998 Universal Army of Darkness-

Year 1999-2000 Anchorbay Limited Edition Rare/OOP

     R1-US release (Gold keepcase / Director's Cut) limited to #40,000
     R1-US release (2 disc Alpha Case) limited to #30,000

     R1-Canadian Release (Gold keepcase / Director's Cut)limited to #5000
     R1-Canadian Release (2 disc Alpha Case) limited to #4000<- Probably the Rarest Version to find

Year 1999-2000 Anchorbay Bruce Campbell vs The Army of Darkness Bootleg Edition-OOP

Year 2002 Anchorbay The Army of Darkness-OOP

Year 2003 Anchorbay Bruce Campbell vs The Army of Darkness Boomstick Edition-OOP

Evil Dead Collectible Booklets  *****





My Evil Dead Collection






footnotes:

* Contrary to early information that there were "5" variations of the 1999 Anchorbay Released, it seems that there were only four "4" (enough to spell E-V-I-L at its spine# ). The set stir a lot of confusion at ebay as the stock photo made available was not even the same cover/art.

** The two released lunchboxes were always been mistaken as the same, but its NOT (One has a DVD in it, the other has a Thermos). 

*** Please be aware that the sought after OOP release/version of the "Boomstick Edition" is the one with the "Limited Collectible 8 page Booklet" entitled Join the Army

**** Please take note that there were four #d Limited Edition releases of Army of Darknes. The Hard ones to obtain or the so called "rarer" versions are the ones released in Canada.

     - Gold keepcase / Director's Cut limited to (US) #out of 40,000 and (Canada) #out of 5,000
- 2 disc Alpha Case limited to (US) #out of 30,000 and (Canada) #out of 4,000

**** This is an exclusive Blockbuster "Rental Only" Edition and "Not For Sale". Released back in 2002. And what made it so rare was it's limited release of availability to "Corporate" Blockbuster Stores only

***** Collectible and limited edition booklets that comes with EVIL DEAD Book of the Dead & Rental Only Version - Evil Dead THX release - Army of Darkness Boomstick Edition

Thanks...

Just an info, if you wanted the best out of Army Of Darkness.. go get teh MGM R3 release. Its has the best PQ and AQ if compared with R1 Army of Darkness.

But if you wish for a Region 1 release, the only version available at market is the Universal Studio's Release Army of Darkness.

YET ANOTHER (THE) EVIL DEAD RELEASE - THE ULTIMATE EDITION
« Reply #21 on: Oct 18, 2007 at 03:57 AM »

         Just when I thought THE EVIL DEAD DVD releases has died down with their Book of the Dead Limited Edition, came this THE ULTIMATE EDITION and it's coming on December 18, 2007. No information yet but you can go to this link:http://dvdempire.com/Exec/v4_item.asp?userid=99366003235114&item_id=1372671&searchID=. According to dvdempire.com, it's a 3-disc edition and that makes me wonder if they will now include the 'Within The Woods' short film in this (ultimate) edition? I'm already looking forward to this.


The DVD cover looks like a folded movie poster though. Maybe, just a sample on what will be the actual cover. I actually like that poster of the woman struggling to get off the ground with a hand around her neck. I have that one in my bedroom. ;)

Ugh, not another one. I already bought the initial jewel case release, then the Book of the Dead edition. Don't see a need for a triple dip.

Anchor Bay really loves re-releasing its limited catalog to death.

Further Details:
Anchor Bay Entertainment has officially announced a 3-Disc Ultimate Edition of The Evil Dead which stars Bruce Campbell. This classic Sam Raimi directed film will be available to own from the 18th December, and should retail at around $34.97. Both anamorphic widescreen and full screen presentations will be included on seperate discs. The widescreen edition will include a commentary by Director Sam Raimi and Producer Robert Tapert, whereas the full screen version will include a Bruce Campbell commentary.

Other features include a One by One We Will Take You: The Untold Saga of The Evil Dead documentary, some new Treasures from the Cutting Room Floor, a Life After Death: The Ladies of The Evil Dead featurette, a Ladies of The Evil Dead Meet Bruce Campbell featurette, and an Unconventional featurette with the cast and crew. Completing the package will be a Q&A with a drive-in audience of hardcore fans, a Reunion Panel, a Discovering The Evil Dead featurette that looks at the British video release of the film, makeup tests, a Poster & Memorabilia Gallery, a still gallery, and the trailer.
