Looks like yet another Evil Dead iPad and iPhone game is coming soon. This one looks like it will be a shooter. The game is developed by Trigger Apps. Here’s part of the press release:
The deal between Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert’s Ghost House and Trigger Apps marks one of the early attempts at giving fans of a classic movie something fresh in the digital age, while also providing a chance to make additional revenue off it.

It is one of the early attempts at keeping fans in touch with and making additional revenue off classic movies, which some predict will become a growing business. It also can help classics find new fans.
