The only thing that could possibly be better than spending a week in Orlando with my family, was finding out that while I was on said vacation I’d be interviewing three cast members from one of my favorite shows, Ash vs Evil Dead. Debuting on Halloween night 2015 on the Starz network, AvED perfectly captured the craziness of Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead trilogy. There’s blood, gore, Bruce Campbell one-liners, deadites and demons, more blood, and more gore. The new series has something that none of the originals had: kickass female characters. Since the original film in 1981, Ash Williams has been rescuing damsels in distress from the clutches of deadites, or sawing their heads in half once they got possessed. In the TV series, Ash faces a slew of fiery badasses who fight alongside and against him including Lucy Lawless (Ruby) and Jill Marie Jones (Agent Fisher). The main female on the show though is Dana DeLorenzo, who plays Kelly Maxwell, one of Ash’s noble sidekicks along with Pablo (Ray Santiago). I got the chance to interview her, while standing off in the one quiet sections of Universal Studios, Florida.
