The Scary Movie Project Meets Friday Night Movie: Exploring "Evil Dead" and Urban Legends with Director Matt Lolich




In this special crossover episode, The Scary Movie Project and Friday Night Movie team up to delve into the world of horror. We are joined by award-winning director Matt Lolich, founder of Hilltop Productions and host of The Scary Movie Project. Matt is known for his short films that explore urban legends, including The Haunting of Old House Woods, Something In The Bay: The Tale Of Chessie. The Chesapeake's Loch Ness., and The Bunnyman of Clifton.


Our chat centers on the classic The Evil Dead (1981) by Sam Raimi and its 2013 remake directed by Fede Alvarez. We share our earliest memories of watching the original film and reflect on its impact. We also have a lively debate about who had the more memorable hand loss scene - Bruce Campbell or Jane Levy.
