On the bloody heels of yesterday's red-band trailer for the new Starz series Ash vs Evil Dead, we have a two-minute sneak-peek that goes behind the scenes of the new show. Star Bruce Campbell returns in the title role he made famous in Sam Raimi's original 1981 horror film. Raimi also returns as Executive Producer of the 10-episode half-hour series that premieres later this fall. Lucy Lawless, Ray SantiagoDana DeLorenzo, and Jill Marie Jones join the cast for the latest supernatural adventure.

This new look inside the production of Ash vs Evil Dead goes a long way toward reassuring fans of the cult movie series that the signature humor and over-the-top gore will be carried onto the small screen. Campbell's likely to have quite a few new one-liners after this series is all said and done, but it remains to be seen just how badly he'll get banged up from wailing on Deadites all season. Let's hope he's got plenty of juice (and gasoline) in the tank!


Watch the new behind-the-scenes featurette for Ash vs Evil Dead below:

Here’s the official synopsis for Ash vs. Evil Dead:

Campbell will be reprising his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead.  When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons –personal and literal.  Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its “Evil” grip.
