They spun their wheels for several years, and then produced a movie that was good, clean, mediocre fun. Sure, I liked it, but I think that had more to do with director Ronny Yu than the quality of the writing. Briggs’ script is notable for its reference to the Phantasm movies. (Look for the SILVER “PHANTASM” BALL near the end.)

Bruce Campbell himself thought this movie probably wouldn’t work. How do you do each franchise justice? Personally, I think the Friday the 13th and Elm Street series interlock nicely, but tying in the Evil Dead continuity seems wrong. After this projected sequel to Freddy Vs. Jason was dropped, Bloody-Disgusting posted the treatment, but it has since been removed.

Recently, the concept was reworked into a comic book, available here.
