Load up your boomstick and oil up that chainsaw. This Halloween is going to be one for the ages as far as fans of the Evil Dead movies are concerned.

The 10-episode series Ash Vs. Evil Dead is set to premiere on Starz on Halloween night – watch the amazing and bloody Comic-Con trailer here – and four days before the show’s big premiere marks the release of Scream Factory’s long-awaited release of Army of Darkness on Blu-ray.

Scream, the horror and sci-fi subsidiary of Shout! Factory, has been working on the Army Blu for quite some time. Today they have unveiled the final list of special features.

You can check out the full line-up of supplements and the snazzy new cover art created for this release here below.

Another year, another set of fascinating panels here at San Diego’s Comic-con international 2013. First off this Thursday is a panel for Europa Report, the film Space.com called “One of the most thrilling and realistic depictions of deep-space exploration since Moon and 2001: A Space Odyssey.”

The panelists were director Sebastian Cordero, composer Bear McCreary (composer of Battlestar Galactica and The Walking Dead), producer Ben Browning, and actress Karolina Wydra, alongside JPL scientists Steve Vance and Kevin Hand. Astronomer Dr. Phil Plait moderated.

Starting the panel off, Dr. Plait mentioned that the three reasons we explore space are resources, danger, and simply to explore — sheer curiosity. And sometimes that exploration comes with a price.
