The Evil Dead II: 25th Anniversary Edition is packed with all-new special features that revisit every aspect of the film’s shoot with over 20 cast and crew members, plus tons of existing content and a thrilling new High-Definition 1080P transfer. The Evil Dead II: 25th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray Disc slays fans on April 8th 2013 in the UK.

SOURCE

It strikes me as odd that it has only been posted about on this one blog, but then I don't see why they'd lie about it. Besides, I recall a member of this site inquiring to Optimum as to whether we'd see a UK release and they said they were planning one for release in early 2013 (most likely to coincide with the remake). I've held off buying the current disc, so I'm very excited!

UPDATE:

Scheduled for release on April 15th, the disc is now available for pre-order.

I love Evil Dead II, I'll be buying this regardless.

Can't wait to pick this up on release. Looks like it's time to sell my DVD copy.

Looks like a port of the US Lionsgate 25th Anniversary edition then.

Hopefully there'll be a steelbook to go with the Evil Dead 1 steelbook!

Good to see this edition coming out in the UK. I wonder if anything 'UK Exclusive' will be added.

If you don't like the UK way of rating,why buy them in the first place ?

Also seeing as you like to post shite comments,heres one for you.

When you import UK titles,do they also get Delhi belly ?

Mister Snoops · 02-19-2013, 06:00 PM

Really glad I held out for this version. I would love a steelbook.

A steelbook would be great for this to go with the 1st. If not a decent slipcover please and thank you.

deckard82 · 02-19-2013, 08:30 PM

that is great news! I asked Studio Canal in Germany a few months back if they had any plans to re-release ED2 and they told me there are no plans. Oh well, I won't need a German ED2 Blu-ray now

One of my favourite horrors. I do have the previous release UK blu, but I don't mind upgrading one bit.
