Rob Zombie and Mila Kunis Team For New Starz Horror-Comedy, 'Trapped'

Another horror-comedy series is coming to Starz and this time, it involves a Zombie. Deadline is reporting that rocker and one of my favorite film makers, Rob Zombie, is teaming up with Mila Kunis and her Orchard Productions for a new horrody called, "Trapped." Zombie, who will also direct, promised on his Facebook page that, "Me and my pal Mila have some crazy shit planned."

The series, which was created and written by Joey Slamon, will occur, "...over a single night in the home of a wealthy family under attack by a murderous cult." Fun! Will it have that same edge that Zombie delivers in his films? Will some of his famous squad members appear? (Sorry, this "squad" term seems to be the new trend.)

No casting news is out or when it will air but we wanted you to get excited for this new series. We'll keep you posted.

In the meantime, Rob Zombie's, 31, is due out next year. Here's the plot summary:

On October 30, 1975, five carnival workers were kidnapped and held hostage until the following night (Halloween), where they are put in a compound. They’re told that they are there to take part in a game named “31” where the goal is to survive past the next 12 hours. This is made difficult by the fact that they are not alone; a violent gang of evil clowns are there and stalking their every move.

New Trailer Released for 'Ash vs Evil Dead'

STARZ just released another trailer for its new original series, "Ash vs Evil Dead" and I'm betting you'll be craving some churros after checking it out. Even though there are some scenes from the first trailer, it's still funny, bloody and overall groovy (yes, I went there).

The show premieres on October 31 at 9 p.m. ET and stars Bruce Campbell, Lucy Lawless, Ray Santiago, Dana DeLorenzo and Jill Marie Jones.

'Evil Dead' Series Coming to Starz and Bruce Campbell Will Star

Some damn groovy news just broke and yes, it has to do with Bruce Campbell and some dead that's... evil. An "Evil Dead" TV series is coming to Starz and not only will Bruce Campbell star as "Ash" but, according to Entertainment Weekly, "Original franchise director Sam Raimi will executive produce the series and write and direct the first episode, with Rob Tapert also executive producing." Excited yet? This isn't just pillow talk, baby.

Here's the logline:

“Bruce Campbell will be reprising his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons –personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its ‘Evil’ grip.”

Campbell knows what fans of the franchise like and stated, “I’m really excited to bring this series to the Evil Dead fans worldwide — it’s going to be everything they have been clamoring for: serious deadite ass-kicking and plenty of outrageous humor."

According to Raimi, who teased this possibility at Comic-Con in July, “Evil Dead has always been a blast. Bruce, Rob, and I are thrilled to have the opportunity to tell the next chapter in Ash’s lame, but heroic saga. With his chainsaw arm and his ‘boomstick,’ Ash is back to kick some monster butt. And brother, this time there’s a truckload of it.”

Did he say boomstick? Hell yes he did! The series will debut on Starz in 2015 and the network's managing director Carmi Zlotnik added, “Starz first worked with Sam and Rob on Spartacus, and we are thrilled to be back in business with them. With Sam writing and directing and Bruce Campbell returning to the screen, we are certain the show will give Evil Dead fans around the world the fix they’ve been craving.”

Let us know what you think of this endeavor. Will it work? Are you looking forward to it?
