So there’s a theory that’s been kicking around the fictional Death’s Door Prods offices that I have constructed in my mind. The theory, first thought up by BovieWan, postulates that Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard’s Cabin in the Woods isn’t just an homage to the Evil Dead style of movie, it actually takes place within the same universe. Everything that happened to the chainsaw handed, boomstick wielding Ash Williams happen at the same cabin in the woods as the events that unfolded in Cabin in the Woods, or at the very least took place in the same universe. So we’re going to put that theory to the test.
For the month of October, we’re gonna watch the entire Evil Dead trilogy and finish the month off with Cabin in the Woods. I’ve said it before but the Evil Dead trilogy is one of my favorite trilogies ever and Cabin in the Woods is probably my favorite film of the year so far. It’s going to be a good month. Even though you don’t really need it, below is the schedule. Please to blahblah and Happy Halloween, everybody!
- October 5th – The Evil Dead
- October 12th – Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn
- October 19th – Army of Darkness
- October 26th – Cabin in the Woods
Not only do i think it’s the same cabin. I believe the cause of the events in all of the movies is the same. I won’t go into further details due to spoilers.
