Ash's macabre medieval adventure is coming to home media like never before in Scream Factory's Collector's Edition 4K UHD / Blu-ray release of Army of Darkness on October 4th, and we have a look at the full list of bonus features that will be included on the standard release and the Limited Edition Steelbook:
Press Release: Los Angeles, CA – Scream Factory™ is releasing Army of Darkness (Collector’s Edition) on 4K UHD + Blu-Ray™ and in a Limited Edition Steelbook on October 4, 2022. The release of the comedy horror film features a 4K scan of the Original Camera Negative, marking its first-time Ultra High-Definition release. Fans of this third installment of the popular Evil Dead phenomenon can pre-order their copies on ShoutFactory.com and other fine retailers.
Bound in human flesh and inked in blood, the ancient "Necronomicon" – the Book of the Dead – unleashes unspeakable evil upon mankind in director Sam Raimi's (Darkman, Drag Me To Hell) outrageously hilarious third chapter in his Evil Dead Trilogy.
Back to do battle with the hideous "Deadites," Bruce Campbell returns to the role of Ash, the handsome, shotgun-toting, chainsaw-armed department store clerk from S-Mart's housewares division. Demonic forces time warp him – and his '73 Oldsmobile – into England's Dark Ages, where he romances a beauty (Embeth Davidtz, The Amazing Spider-Man) and faces legions of the undead. Can Ash save the living from the evil dead, rescue his girlfriend, and get back to his own time?
