EVIL DEAD BURN Trailers and a clip!

‘Every family has its demons’
Evil Dead Burn is a 2026 supernatural horror film about a grieving woman who is besieged by Deadites.

The movie was directed by Sébastien Vaniček (Infested) from a screenplay co-written with Florent Bernard. It was produced by Rob Tapert and Sam Raimi and executive produced by Romel Adam, Bruce Campbell, Lee Cronin and Jose Canas.

The Ghost House Pictures-New Line Cinema-Screen Gems production stars Souheila Yacoub, Tandi Wright, Hunter Doohan, Luciane Buchanan, Errol Shand, George Pullar, Maude Davey and Greta Van Den Brink.

Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi selected Sébastien Vanicek as director after being impressed with his work on Infested (2023). Vanicek stated his intention with the film was to, “create a visceral, sensory experience that punches the audience in the gut. I want people to feel physically drained when they leave the theater, like they’ve been through an emotional and intense journey.”

Plot [contains spoilers]:

At his family’s lakehouse, Joseph Price researches his late grandfather Benjamin’s studies about the Necronomicon and Deadites. He uncovers the Kandarian Dagger, which Benjamin claims can destroy Deadites. His discovery attracts Deadite Jessica who murders a pair of fishermen before making her way towards Joseph. Joseph’s brother Will gets into a fight with his wife Alice and drunkenly drives away, crashing into Jessica. As Will burns to death in the car wreck, Jessica recites a passage from the Necronomicon and passes the Deadite possession to Will.

Some time later, Alice, Joseph, his girlfriend Thya, his parents Susan and Edgar and grandmother Polly reunite for Will’s cremation. Alice struggles to bond with Susan and Edgar, who blame her for the crash. After the service, Edgar privately visits Will’s coffin before he is cremated. Will’s Deadite possessed corpse breaks out of the coffin, burns Edgar, and kills the cremator. The family return to the lakehouse where Edgar slowly succumbs to possession.

During a tense family dinner, Edgar stabs the family dog Max to death and collapses. Joseph and Thya attempt to drive him to the hospital but he causes the car to crash and murders Thya while Joseph flees. At the house Alice stumbles upon Benjamin’s research and nearly reads from the Necronomicon before she is attacked by a possessed Max.

Joseph arrives at the house when Thya suddenly appears, now also a Deadite. The family lock her in the basement and try to flee but are forced to retreat when Edgar and Max confront them. While the others barricade the house, Thya tricks Polly into letting her out. Thya brutally attacks the entire family, trying to track down the dagger.

Joseph manages to kill Thya. Polly, possessed by a Deadite after her encounter with Thya, manipulates a traumatized Susan into letting Deadite Edgar inside. Susan kisses Edgar and begins to succumb to Deadite possession while trying to convince Joseph to tell her the location of the dagger.

Edgar attacks the family, breaking a promise he made to Susan to leave Joseph alone. Alice hides during the chaos and has flashbacks to being abused by Will during their marriage. She arms herself with a rotary saw and finds Susan before being ambushed by Polly. Polly deafens Alice’s right ear but Alice manages to subdue Polly with a stair lift.

Joseph succumbs to his wounds at the hands of Edgar and dies while Alice and Susan flee to the bathroom. Alice ties Susan up and confronts her about Will’s abusive past. Susan admits her hatred of Alice and becomes fully possessed. Alice fends her off and escapes to the attic, finding the Kandarian dagger. Deadite Joseph attacks her but she manages to kill him, releasing his body from possession.

Alice flees to the roof pursued by Susan and Edgar but drops the dagger. Climbing back into the house via the chimney, she manages to decapitate Susan and fatally wound Edgar with the saw before setting the house on fire. Alice kills Max with the dagger before collapsing. Will arrives at the burning house and pursues Alice to a building site. After a lengthy struggle, Alice manages to trap Will in a pit filled with tar and kill him with a jackhammer and the dagger. Paramedics arrive as the sun rises and rescue Alice.

In a mid-credit scene, the still-possessed Polly is revealed to have escaped the house and is found by a motorist crawling away. Polly scratches the motorist’s leg, passing on the Deadite possession.

In a post-credit scene, the daughter of the crematoriums’s manager finds Ellie Bixler’s unclaimed ashes before Deadite Ellie appears and kills her.
