EvilDeadRise director Lee Cronin explains why he didn't want to tell a story with Ash in the cabin in the woods. 'When I had the creative freedom to tell a story that I was interested in, I was at peace. It’s my favorite script I've ever written.'
I had the pleasure of catching Lee Cronin’s directorial debut, The Hole in the Ground, when it first premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival. It was immediately apparent that Cronin was a must-watch genre director on the rise, but had you asked me if he’d be a good fit for the Evil Dead franchise, admittedly, I don’t know if my response would have been a resounding yes at the time.
We kicked off the non-spoiler half of the interview by revisiting Cronin’s road to Evil Dead Rise, which actually began immediately after The Hole in the Ground’s world premiere back in January 2019. “I remember looking back, my final short film I made, I think it came out like 10 years ago, at the same time as Evil Dead 2013, and I remember just being a little bit jealous at the time. And I actually think, funny story, that short ended up, the person doesn't work for Ghost House anymore, but they saw the short and they were like, ‘Nah,’ and they moved along. And I was like, ‘Damn, I really want to make an Evil Dead movie someday,’ and then I got that opportunity.
Yes, Evil Dead films do have a consistent mythology, but one of the most exciting things about that mythology is that is calls for filmmakers to swing for the fences. Cronin was well aware of that and made a point to embrace it. “One of the fun things about taking on the Evil Dead is that you don't necessarily need to have perfect rules because there's a certain kind of nightmare logic at play in that world. So maybe in another horror movie, you'd have to explain how an elevator can fill with blood.
