General Discussion / Re: [Official Thread] The Evil Dead Remake - Mark your spoilers!

« on: April 20, 2013, 04:42:26 AM »

Finally got to go see the new Evil Dead last night.

I really liked the movie and thought that it had better SFX and production value then the original.

But my main compliant was that the deadites were too easy to kill.  In the original they had to be literally chopped up with an axe or chainsaw...the only one remotely close to that was the one at the end.

They were more like zombies then anything...and that's why I liked the origianl deadites more...they were much tougher to kill...haha.

General Discussion / Re: '73 Olsmobile Delta 88 Model Car

No, there isn't a 73 olds 88 model anywhere.  No AMT, hot wheels, or matchbox cars ever.

There are several other 70s olds cars available.  Like the sporty coupes and whatnots, but no sedans.  It just isn't a popular make, model year and body type...otherwise there would be more toys, models of it.

****THREAD BUMP****

Hey all, Blaster here.  I thought I would drop by and update this thread with new info.  I've been very busy for over a year and here's why...

































The feature film I started shooting almost 2 years ago is about a month away from being finished!!

The real reason I bought and restored my 73 olds "classic" project was to feature it in my movie as a homage to Evil Dead.  All I need to do is shoot one last scene and my movie is done.  If everything goes okay, I will be done with principal shooting by the end of August with sound and music completed by the end of September.  With a potentual release date of October, November 2012.

I've come such a long way since I first starting shooting this movie...it's really going to kick serious @$$ when it premieres.

I will continue to keep everyone updated here on my movie as there are several EVIL DEAD references in my movie to tide over the most die hard fan.

For all info, pictures and contact info...besure to check out:

It's not much right now, as a website, but in the next few months it will be fully fleshed out.

Until next update!!

ehh...not really.  The guy I sold it too reverted the car back into it's "pre-raimi" condition.  By putting on different trim packages and hubcaps.  He didn't want any of the EVIL DEAD props that came with the car...he just wanted the car for being "a car".

But he did fix the radio and the car now has AC...or so I'm told.  Which is AWESOME.  I don't know how many times on a long distance road trip I wanted to listen to the radio but couldn't.  And during filming this summer, over 100+ degrees a cold AC would have made things much, much, MUCH easier to film.

I do have another car to replace that one...

Just a small update.













Finished shooting last month and got all my shots in for the movie.

Now it's down to editing and putting in SFX.

I've sold the car and now have the last of my Evil Dead items up for sale.

EVIL DEAD COLLECTION SALE

The movie is going to be awesome, lots of surprises in store for everyone!

Both cars are being used for a movie project I am working on.  I'm still in the process of getting the planning down, but it's Evil Dead related.  I believe that I have found an actor to play as ash.

The hearse has been giving me fits lately.  Hopefully it can survive until summer when I plan to roll cameras.  It needs some work, but overall, it's really nice considering it's age.

Here are shots of my ash costumes, both I have been working on and off for years.  Adding details here and there.  I only really finished the S-MART ASH a few weeks ago.  Which is kinda sad, considering that I had bought and restored the 73 olds before finishing such a simple costume.

Enjoy.

73 olds update:

Got some news to share in relation to my car.  About the ebay thing.   I was just seeing if there were any ED fans out there that would like to have a chance of owning "the" car.  I'll let her go for 6K, she's worth that much.  But I still have it. 

I just got back from a car show in New Castle, IN today and entered the car there.  It was a MASSIVE car show, 150+ cars.  Really nice 20K - 30K 40s and 50s hot rods.  I just finished a new ED car display and put it next to the car.  I had my usual movie poster and stand.  But this time I had my Homelite Chainsaw prop, Book of the Dead, and double barrel shotgun prop displayed with the poster.  I was in a little spot back behind some venders and set up shop there.  Alot of people looked at the car and display as they passed by.  But I was joking with some family members that where there with me and said, "I bet there isn't a single person in this show that has seen Evil Dead".  They hadn’t either. 

So, long story short.  The awards are being handed out.  50+ trophies have been handed out.  They're down to the last two.  Best of Show and DJ's choice.  The DJ picks up the mic and says.  Now for the DJ's choice award, I have two things to say about this car...one it's got a Kentucky license plate.

I was shocked.  I had a KY plate (I had switched out the Michigan plate for my regular one, forgot to change it back for the show).  The DJ said the second thing about this car was that his mom had one JUST like it when he was younger and he drove it on few trips without her knowing.  And that it was a more gold color then mine.

Immediately I knew he was talking about me and I started walking forward towards the stand.  He called out number#147, 1973 olds Delta 88 and I got my trophy.   After the picture, the lady handing out the awards leans over and says, “It’s my favorite movie.”

Wow.  Just wow.  Amazing.

So I’m 2 for 2.  This car is winning awards left and right and now…might be in a feature film.  I’m helping with a movie shoot in Chicago this month and there is a chance that this car will be in that movie.  I can’t say anything more about that at this time.  But, if all goes okay, there will be a teaser trailer released soon and my car might be in it.  MIGHT.  I still have to get it to Chicago and even then it’s a 50/50 thing.  I can tell everyone right now that it is NOT Evil Dead 4.  I don’t even want to go down that road, haha.

So I’ll keep this thread updated with more news and pictures as they happen.   The pictures from today’s car show haven’t developed yet and I’ll post them when I have them.

Until next update.

Groovy!

Entered my first ever Car Show today, took home 2nd place in the "custom classic" catagory.





The car show raised over $100 dollars for "relay for life".  There were about 15-20 cars there.

Just about done.  Got two more pieces of trim to put on and some windows to tint and it's good to go.

some current progress:







It still needs a few more coats of paint but it's getting there.  Been having alotta rain around my neck of the woods and it's been slowing down progress.  If the weather stays sunny this weekend, I could have it done by Sunday.

Can't wait to get rid of that slime green paint job...

Yeah, my car has a massive 455 in it.  I've never raced in it.  I'm really babying this thing, although I'm sure it could burn rubber if it needed to.

Are you going to turn your car into a Ash replica?

If you already have the white top, all you need is the yellow body.

Raimi's car is such an easy replica to make, if you have the right make, model, and year olds.

It's not like you're building a Delorean Time Machine replica or Ghostbusters car.

In my case, I just need the yellow paint job now.  The tape recorder and Evil Dead props that I have are just a bonus, to display at shows and whatnot.

I've started taking off the trim, hopefully I can get it painted next week...
