hmmmm

just to clarify lol Yes a scr from 1978, that was never released to anyone at all it is a test piloit used to sell the evil dead series to Anchor Bay studios.

Question Within the woods

I agree - a screener from 1978 -- i dont believe this movie had a screener- since it was college project and never premiered in any festivals

really doubtful screener unless the team can prove other wise and besides all the copies i have seen of this short film are of very low quality -- so i dont expect better from this


Posted by ^Om3n on 04-14-2002 05:04 AM:

thats what i was wondering, besides that the quality is shocking, what a waiste seriously why bother

Cool

after tmmvcd released a telesync of a 1982 movie just recently ( E:T), nothing surprices me


Posted by Visigoth on 04-14-2002 05:27 AM:

Okay I can't say anything about the quality, but the movie much better than a 2.9. You guys lick balls if you think this great short film by Sam Raimi is a 2.9.


Posted by b0nk3r on 04-14-2002 05:29 AM:

LMAO, wtf is this? so ugly

Posted by KingEdgar0 on 04-14-2002 08:13 AM:

Yeah. Sam Raimi and the guys made this movie before Evil Dead, As an experiment with the genre, and to have something to show the investors. For Evil Dead fans such as myself this is a very cool release.

I am sure the quality won't be very good. It was shot a long time ago, and probably on crappy film.


Posted by Tim Mcmanus on 04-14-2002 08:36 AM:

can u believe quality more crappy than an FTF release?


video is terrible...but the audio kinda makes up for it being decent.

anywayz itz free..so watch it


peace


Posted by pHo on 04-14-2002 11:13 AM:

Nice to see people posting when they don't have a clue, as usual.

Its a 70s short film, shot by amateurs (at the time) which went on to become one of the most important pieces in American Horror history. What do you expect? dolby surround? anamorphic widescreen? it aint gonna happen. of course its gonna be shitty, hell Evil Dead was the "final" product, and that was shot on 16mm, which was an upgrade for them!

Basically, if your not a hardcore horror fan, this release obviously isn't for you, so dont download, and dont bother commenting.

what i want to know.......

how can ppl rate a release that we know you don't have yet, I for one welcome any and all comments about our 1978 vhs tape that even the nfo says it is. Now do this.... grab it watch it and then post a comment I don't care what the comment is but still wait to actually have this release.


Posted by cosmic on 04-14-2002 12:56 PM:

amen!


Posted by PenisXX on 04-14-2002 01:33 PM:

cool release! nuff said.


Posted by godmoney on 04-14-2002 03:03 PM:

yeah

i know for a fact there were no screeners. Having read up on this film a while ago, Sam would bring a small movie projector and screen (often he used sheets) to investor's homes or their companies. The main purpose of this movie was to gain income to make evil dead, and i doubt they'd have the money to produce and dub screener tapes.

Plus, this isn't a release worth commending, i've found the very same thing on Kazaa and binary newsgroups many times. PTP just probably downloaded from Kazaa, and used Xing mpeg encoder or some shit like that

laterz


Posted by pazuzu on 04-14-2002 03:42 PM:

I dont give a crap about the quality i have been looking for this movie for almost 10 years! OH HAPPY DAY! :))))

there is no actual reason for this to be released, though i would love to see it, i will wait till it is released with the Evil Dead DVD Box Set being released this year. Or so i have heard rumors about.


Posted by Krakt-Hed on 04-14-2002 10:20 PM:

sheesh, it's one thing to talk about the quality of the release, that's why this forum is here....but to say "it shouldn't have been released" is just fuckin' retarded

LOL... if that were the attitude why bother releasing any movies when you can just wait to see them on dvd... i want to know... has anyone that flamed actually seen the vcd yet...? cause its pretty lame when i see 14 people had voted before they even saw the sample. anyone who knows anything knows that this is a bad ass rare release and it was released soley for those people. so if you are going to flame without seeing the vcd go over to isonews they like that kind of bullshit

lol if i find it, i am getting it, it sounds like a little collectors item
but the sample pictures make it look like it is unwatchable quality

did any-one get it
and if you did
is it at least watchable

lol

i wouldn't have said that if it were a new release.. but what the hell it's over 2 decades old... yeah i got afew movies from 1970 maybe i should start releasing them.. the video is shaky and the sound is all fuzzy.. maybe i will become the greatest releaser of all time... Just because you have a tape of something doesn't mean you have to release it... grab the WtW from a Pre-Retail Box Set rip and Release... if not what's the point of releasing shit?

i take that back, and sorry if i hurt ya feeling dude i wasn't exactly sober and i posted on the jpgs which is unlike me, i now know for a fact from a very reliable sorce(perhaps the first person to even get this release) that the quality is actually quite good, especially concidering when and with what it was filmed

Thumbs up

damn, use your brain before criticizing a release. this is part of a horror history, right here. when i told a few friends (who care very little about the scene) that i could get them this they almost shit their pants. if i had told them i could grab them a pre copy of star wars ll i doubt they would've cared in the least. the point is, some have different tastes. show a little respect...

nice release

Oh God. You are psychic!
How would you know people voted without seeing the sample?
Just because your sources are slowassed, it doesnt't mean that others are like that too.......

PS: the jpg isn't a sample if thats what you are refering to.

Posted by MoviePenguin on 04-16-2002 12:07 AM:

Well, I waited until I got the release before I posted a comment, but I just watched it and I have to say I am excited about it and upset at the whole time. If someone told me they were gonna give me a million dollars I would be excited. If I got the million and it was shreeded into small peices I would be pissed. Thats how I felt about this release. The parts where I thought the video had just started to fix itself it would get horrible. it looks like someone pissed on the video pefore the ripped it and than set it on fire. Seriously why not wait and rip it off the upcomming Evil Dead Box set instead of making people excited and than giving them a big pile of shit.

Thats all I have to say about this matter.


Posted by xiaNaix on 04-16-2002 12:44 AM:

First off... this is NOT a screener (obviously).

Copies of this this have been floating around on VHS in trader circles for a long time. I've had one for at least 10 years.

It was supposed to be included in the recently released "Book of the Dead" DVD edition of "Evil Dead" but they dropped it at the last minute.

Alot of ED fans were pissed off by this and, as a result, some guy(s) at this forum...

http://www.deadites.net/cgi-bin/ib3/ikonboard.cgi

... worked on capturing, filtering, and cleaning up the crappy looking VHS copy to make a pretty good looking mpeg version that's been on WinMX, etc. for months.

Somebody obviously saw this and decided to release a "screener."

I wonder where their source came from.

Hmmm, let me see....
I think the admin of this board would 1st have to post the release in order for the rest to vote.
So he would know of this release right?
He would also probably have enough time to download the sample right?
So maybe he can vote right?
So if he can do that, im quite sure there are quite a number of people out there that could have seen it too right?

So unless this board is run by PTP members.... I think your assumption is wrong.

But hey, who am I to judge my fellow man....

NFO

well my dear if you would have read the nfo it would tell you what the source was... it was a damn vhs tape. and if you allready have a vhs tape like you claim why the hell you wasting your time downloading a vcd...this is the last comment i will make... I Thank all that understand and respect this release... we released this for hardcore horror/evil dead fans.. which i am ...so it did reach its audience and that was our only intention. it is called a screener because there is nothing else to call a vhs rip.. i got my hands on this vhs... saw no one had released it.. and said hell yeah!! and imediately wanted to get it out there on the scene for evil dead fans like myself... I know that the quality is shit. but its an old dirty dusty vhs tape produced some 20 years ago.. you cant expect dvd.and for all you that say that it didnt need to be released because it will be available on the new dvd. i laugh. because that would be true for all releases for they will all be on dvd. so just get out of the scene and wait for dvds on all movies. i love our release and so do others. it is a collectors item. and somebody needed to get it out there to the peeps.. thats what we did.. so for all you that appreciate this release you get a big THANKS from PTP and we promise to keep you pleased.. for all that didnt oh well we dont care about peeps who lie about having stuff and dont know what they are talking about to begin with. SO much love to all that support the scene and once again THANKS from PTP

Their are serious doubts that this film will ever be officially released by Anchor Bay. It was pulled from the DVD release because of a rights issue.


Posted by Krakn3Dfx on 04-17-2002 02:56 PM:

Unhappy Why bother?

This movie is barely recognizable as anything. If this is all we have to look forward to as a copy of Within the Woods, I hope that Anchor Bay can one day make some sort of deal so that they can officially release this as a part of some "Evil Dead Super Extended Unlimited Limited Edition" DVD that we can enjoy.

lol, when i said it was nicely put, i was talking to napalmfuzz and the second part i meant i was one of those that voted before seing it. not like me, but hey thats what alcohol does to ya. no need to ague over weather ppl had seen it before posting or not. i think it was made pretty obvious who napalmfuzz by now and that those ppl hadn't.

neways, this thread has gone around in circles long enough i think lol

Posted by snottysnowy on 04-17-2002 10:17 PM:

as an evil dead fan it is fair to say that "Within The Woods" is most definatelty Never and i say NEVER gonna be released on the DVD Box set as copyright laws were broken on the soundtrack of the movie as it was a Student production done by Sam Riami and he just stuck any kind of music in it without knowing its source e.g. music playing on radio was filmed in realtime.. and as for the quality it was shot on super 8mm film in the 70's so it bound to be poor.. im glad these guys actually released it B4 it was lost forever THNXS..


Posted by Lochan on 04-18-2002 01:58 AM:

smacks Napalmfuzz

/me smacks Napalmfuzz around with a large trout


well put bro

And I will close my posting here saying i'm glad to see us getting the flames we get it only means one thing.... we are now officialy a group, every group gets flamed no matter what they release, but notice something, the hard core flames came from "junior" and "Rookie" anywho i'm glad to see our first release made for such a big thread and i thank all who helped make it happen, AND sence the ppl have spoken PTP have listened a REPACK is in the works with MUCH better quality, and nope its still not the infamos mpg someone was talking about lol.

Thanks again for your flames and support

I never said that I didn't appreciate the release. I was trying to explain why the video quality is as poor as it is. It's no better or worse than the copy that Tom Sullivan was showing at the Video Wasteland convention a couple of years ago. It's as good as you're going to get for "Within The Woods"

And, for the person who was babbling on about the soundtrack... Joe recorded an entirely new score for the version that was supposed to be released on the "Book of the Dead" DVD. That wasn't the reason they pulled it from the final disc.
