Here's a first look at the 'Necronomicon' limited edition packaging for Anchor Bay's Evil Dead Special Edition. What you're seeing here is the fully painted third prototype of the DVD case design based on the book seen in the first Evil Dead. It has been sculpted by original 'Book of the Dead' creator Tom Sullivan. The package will also contain a few pages of Sullivan's original work as seen in the film. The disc itself will feature a brand-new THX Certified transfer approved by director Sam Raimi, and taken from the original negative just recently discovered; audio will come in new DTS ES 6.1 and Dolby-EX tracks. All of the extras available on the Elite special edition will be present on this upcoming disc, as well as some new supplements (the original 1978 short Within the Woods, most likely). The LE will also come with a 24-page booklet and a possible 2nd disc as well. Stay tuned on that one.

As long as it's not a THX transfer like Highlander was......
So what exactly's on this disc, is it uncut (ie tree rape scene) etc?
Are they going to do 2 and 3 as well?

"How are you gentlemen"

Yeah I'll be definetly getting it too.
The Elite release features that will be present on this new one are:
Sam Raimi and producer Robert G. Tapert commentary track
Second commentary by Bruce Campbell
20 mins of behind the scenes outtakes and deleted scenes and retakes, pretty fun.
2 theatrical trailers
A photo gallery with 150 or so snapshots of production, etc.
It's a nice release and animated menus etc, but for a new cover and a booklet and maybe some new special features, definetly gona get this version too.

Hey Evil Dean you lucky *******, I like your sig quote again
"You have no chance to survive make your time!" :D
