Evil Dead Burn (2026)

Time to dust off the Necronomicon! It’s spooky season so we’re returning to cinema’s greatest horror franchise. Hail to the king, baby!
This week we bring our Evil Dead series back to life, and this time, there’s an entire family of Deadites trying to kill us. Luckily, we have a weedwacker, a jackhammer, and a vat of burning hot tar. But please, watch out from Grandma’s dentures.
Happy Halloween!
Next week, we return to our UFO Invasion series for Steven Spielberg’s DISCLOSURE DAY (2026). Join the conversation on our Discord at discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod
