2009 November 9
Before I get into all the details that make up the Ladies of the Evil Dead : Extreme Edition, I thought I’d share the story on how it all came about…So check out the video below and I’ll reveal exactly what took place to bring this idea to fruition. Feel free to post your thoughts and comments below!

I’m really pumped for this.Plus,It comes out on payday!Always a plus!
Payday for me, too. I can’t wait for the shirt. Like I’m not going to buy one.
This is going to be beyond kick-ass. I thought nothing could top my love for the F13 LE package, but I strongly sense this baby’s gonna steamroll it into the ground. BRING IT ON!!!!!
cool story, i wasn’t expecting this, will it have a print on the back too like the notld?
Awesome awesome awesome! I can’t wait!
I actually just got in my Ash shirt (the bloody face one), which I’ve been putting off ordering since I first discovered you guys. I’m a huge Evil Dead fan, so when I got the e-mail with the teaser video, I had a minor freakout of enthusiasm. I have several Evil Dead shirts already, and, as much as I adore Ash, I’m super excited for a different kind of shirt!!
I can pretty much guarantee, site unseen, that I will be buying this shirt when it comes out!
Ah, I was wondering if the ladies being at that Monster Mania con had anything to do with this project coming about. (Coincidentally I bought the chainsaw Ash shirt from you that weekend). Great story Ben, glad it all came together. I can’t wait to hear the details once this beast is released from the cellar.
Yep, I just can’t wait, and from the looks of it, I’ll have to buy two or three of those shirts.
Haven’t had time to listen to this yet (due to work) but hoping it’s different to the “Ladies of the Evil Dead” shirt I already have !!
The one I have has “Ladies of the Evil Dead” writting on front of the shirts on left chest area then large Back print with “JOIN US” written on it with the three girls – Linda, Cheryl etcs names with a head shot of each when possesed…………….. Can anyone confirm for me that this shiort will be different to the one I have??? But I guess no one knows yet, right ??
Great story man! I’m happy for you guys that they sent you an e-mail! I adore Evil Dead, it’s incredible. I too have the Ash bloody face t-shirt (I am actually puzzled about not having the Ash-chainsaw one…I think when I’m finished with this e-mail, I’ll go check again in the list…??)
So anyway, keep up the good work and can’t wait to see the “Ladies” design!!
“…Ash, let me out of here, I’m alright now, I’m alright…unlock these chains and let me out…”
CJ – Yes, this is MUCH different than the Ladies of the Evil Dead shirt you currently have. I know what one you’re talking about – it’s the one they sell at their table at conventions. Our main focus was to make this stand out from that as much as possible. And believe me…it will!
i want to see this so bad, im am getting closer to my evil dead tattoo and am drooling over the possibilities of this EXTREME edition
Hahah…AMAZING! But I can’t believe you left out the best part, when I cried as we were saying goodbye and I thanked them for making The Evil Dead…that was hilarious!
Right on Ben, this one’s gonna be good. You can never have too much Evil Dead in your life.
How could I forget?
You wear your love for Evil Dead on your sleeve, that’s for sure! At least you didn’t freak them out (though Betsy thought you were a bit drunk…)
You, sir, are a genius. You even design killer shirts for movies I don’t even LIKE. And I buy them anyway! So I can’t even imagine how incredible this one is going to be, being as it is from one of the most loved genre flix of all time.
Sounds great. I’m sold
Ben, great as always!! Keep getting out those fantastic designs and “Ladies” is really cool. Let me know if you ever want to do a Film Fest at my Haunted Barn or even a shirt promotion. Our Night of the Living Dead show was amazing and the promotion for it was even better. Keep in touch and all the best, Joey, Diane and Jess

It sucks loving all these great shirts when one is unemployed.
SO FUCKING EXCITED!!!!!!!!! I already know I’m going to buy it, I’ve always loved the ladies of the Evil Dead and damn I am so geeked that you guys are doing a design of em! I love you Fright Rags theres always something dope you guys are doing!!
Ben… you bastard. Christmas is right around the corner & I really can’t afford to be spending money on anything other than presents for my friends and family….
Kidding. I’ll be picking up at least one of these. My friends & family get me crappy gifts for Christmas, so screw ‘em anyway. Your special edition designs rock & I’m looking forward to seeing what you have planned for this one.
I actually already have the same shirt CJ wrote about as well. I’m sure this one will be much different and much better!! Can’t wait!!
Crap…just realized a hiccup in the editing. Damn…that’s what I get for rushing through it!
so, you have a fear of rejection?!?! ha ha
honestly, i’ve seen a mock-up of this design and it is AWESOME!!!!
you fans of the shirts are in for a real treat with this one!!! ben has really gone out of his way with this, and i’m not saying this to help him promote it. you all know what he’s capable of from past limited editions!!!
stay tuned, true believers!!!!
Ash is great and everything but really in that first film the 3 Ladies had the best scenes. It’s bout time someone got a shirt together that will be a tribute to all they contributed to that first EVIL DEAD!
Now if only someone would put out the Commentary with Teresa, Betsy and Ellen that was supposed to be on one of the last Evil Dead DVDs.
Can’t wait for the shirt. Should be a killer design!
I’d be happy with just ONE Re-Animator or From Beyond print.
But I can see how Evil Dead is a great big cash cow for you guys.
@Braindead – We actually did a From Beyond shirt (see clearance section) at one point. As for Re-Animator…you never know
