Ash Vs. Evil Dead Season 2: 10 Things To Look Forward To
4. Army Of Darkness Back In Play
One of the biggest things to look forward to in Ash vs. Evil Dead season two is the fact that Army of Darkness is back in play. The third Evil Dead movie had been whitewashed from the backstory of the TV series for the entirety of season one due to rights issues.
Confusingly, every single Evil Dead movie was released by a different studio, meaning that obtaining the rights to all of them was exceedingly difficult. That Ash vs. Evil Dead exists at all shows how dedicated Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell are to the franchise. And that dedication seems to have been paid off: who ever was holding up the rights to Army of Darkness, it looks like the show can finally start referencing it.
How they go about doing it should be interesting. Don't expect to see outright flashbacks. However, Ash might reference his trip to another world (expect Pablo and Kelly to be dubious). And maybe, just maybe, we'll get a "shop smart, shop S-Mart!" line.
We can hope!
