Deadites rejoice! We have been gifted with another entry into the Evil Dead franchise! This time, it’s Lee Cronin’s Evil Dead Rise! With all of the food featured in the film and its trailer, we absolutely couldn’t let this movie pass without creating something for it. Therefore, we are excited to share our recipe for Deadite Leg-uini!
In Evil Dead Rise, “two sisters find an ancient book that gives birth to bloodthirsty demons that run amok in a Los Angeles apartment building and thrusts them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable.”
The inspiration for this recipe came from the fact that eggs and a cheese grater are prominently featured in Evil Dead Rise. We found some red chili pepper pasta that had more of a skin tone than regular linguini (both work). This combined with sun-dried tomato (which looks like bits of a leg), you have a perfectly delicious gross-out meal.
We hope you decide to dig into our latest recipe inspired by Evil Dead Rise! Don’t forget we also have a recipe for Necronominoms inspired by Ash vs Evil Dead. As if all that wasn’t incredible enough, on behalf of Warner Brothers Pictures, we are giving away 5 pairs of Fandango codes to see Evil Dead Rise in theaters! For your chance to win a pair, head over to our Twitter and follow the instructions there! Winners will be selected and notified by the end of the day on Friday, April 21st. Good luck!
