It’s not like I could tell New Line my plan to include The Evil Dead, because they don’t own The Evil Dead.
Not everyone is sold on the canonical connection between Jason Voorhees and the Evil Dead franchise Jason doesn’t look or act like a Deadite: Jason is a mute, humorless brute whereas Deadites are shrieking, mischievous, self-mutilators.
He’s Jason plus The Evil Dead, and now I can believe that he can go from a little boy that lives in a lake, to a full-grown man in a couple of months, to Zombie Jason, to never being able to kill this guy.
