Ever since there was word about “Freddy vs Jason”, people have been dying to see a “Freddy vs Jason vs Ash” movie. As a matter of fact, wheels were put in motion, a project did go into development… but ultimately nothing ever came of it. For those 8 of you who may not know, Ash is Bruce Campbell’s character from the Evil Dead franchise.
Bruce rules the known universe, and Ash rules the fiction universe. It’s just that simple. Seeing Ash throw down and kick Freddy and Jason’s ass would be amazing. Make that film for like $40 million and you’ve got a guaranteed money maker.
However, it seems that there may be some life left in the “Freddy vs Jason vs Ash” idea yet. They haven’t announced a MOVIE yet… but at Wizard they did announce another project. ShockTillYouDrop gives us this:
News fresh out of the Wizard World Convention in Chicago says that DC Comics and Dynamite Entertainment are putting the horror threesome together in a “Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash” six-part mini-series written by James Kuhoric based on a 30-page movie treatment written by former New Line exec Jeff Katz (who’s now at Fox). J. Scott Campbell and Eric Powell will provide the interlocking cover art.
Now, where there is life there is hope. Perhaps this could be the spark to get things going yet again? LET THE MIGHTY CHAINSAW HAND OF ASH RISE AND CLAIM BLOODY PLUNDER AGAIN!!!!!
