THERE'S a new lease of life for EVIL Dead in some shocking footage from the 2013 remake.
The new horror â€" a remake of the 1981 classic â€" is produced by original director Sam Raimi.
And the new footage shows shocking scenes which look every bit as frightening as the original.
The movie centres on five friends staying at a remote wooden cabin in the woods. As you do.
When they discover a creepy Book of the Dead, they unleash evil spirits lying dormant in the woods. Obviously.

The demons begin to possess the pals, starting with Mia â€" played by US Shameless star Jane Levy.
Producer Sam says he is thrilled with the remake of his cult classic, directed by Fede Alvaraz.
He says: ““I’m really excited to see something I care about really deeply being reborn by a great artist.
“It’s true to the original in spirit but has really got its own voice, its own intensity â€" and it’s outrageous, just like the first one was.â€
But Fede admits that taking on the movie was a daunting prospect.
He says: “I was watching TV at home and I saw some interview when they said, ‘They’re going to remake Evil Dead’ and I was like, ‘Who’s going to touch that classic?’â€
Evil Dead is released on April 19.
