On Halloween, October 31 the Starz network premiered, Ash vs Evil Dead a 10-episode half-hour series. It was the long-awaited follow-up to the classic horror film franchise The Evil Dead.
In the new series we are introduced to new characters, and a new favorite, Pablo Simon Bolivar played by Ray Santiago. Pablo is Ash’s (Bruce Campbell) new sidekick but, the more you watch the episodes, you see there’s more to Pablo than even he realizes himself.
I had the pleasure of talking to Ray about the fun craziness of the show, his like for Pablo, and future directing plans. Now listen in on the conversation.
The rest of the cast include: Lucy Lawless as Ruby, Dana DeLorenzo as Kelly Maxwell, and Jill Marie Jones as Amanda Fisher.
The series is executive produced by Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert, and Bruce Campbell, the original filmmakers of the franchise. —A.O.
