The first official poster for the upcoming Evil Dead remake poster has been released. We’re a bit underwhelmed with the lazy typography treatment and imagery. Hopefully they will have more posters down the line.

The official Evil Dead remake Facebook page has released the first detailed images of the Necronomicon Ex Mortis a.k.a Book of the Dead:

The official teaser trailer for the upcoming Evil Dead remake (as seen at NYC Comic Con 2012) has been released. Enjoy!

In case you missed the Evil Dead panel at this year’s New York Comic Con or couldn’t catch the live stream, here it is in its entirety sans the Evil Dead trailer:

The Evil Dead panel at this year’s NYC Comic Con was well worth the three hour wait. I was lucky enough to get a decent seat and took some photos of the panel including the first shot from the Evil Dead remake (see below). Bruce Campbell stole the show as always and got the crowd riled up. The high point of the panel was the exclusive trailer of the Evil Dead remake. The trailer was simply amazing. It was very gory and well cut. The remake is definitely going to be a lot darker than the original. Words can’t describe how hyped up I am now for the remake. All my doubts towards the remake are now gone. Anyway enjoy the photos!

Word on the street the trailer/teaser and new poster will be released on Halloween.

For fans who can’t make it to NYC Comic Con this year to attend the Evil Dead panel. You can watch the live stream here:

The Evil Dead Panel starts Saturday around 4:15pm EST.
