Evil Dead 2 (1987) - Original Mono Preservation (Released)

i’ll make it short 😉

the original mono audio for evil dead 2 was never released on dvd and blu-ray for unknown reasons. after numerous re-releases after re-releases it’s clear that we will never get it. however, it doesn’t mean we can get it at all. luckily the good old laserdisc releases where always fortune to have it. with the help of jj666 and myself we can finally enjoy the original monaural audio of this classic movie with the high-def video presentation - if you have the u.s. blu-ray that is 😉

synced by jj666 to the u.s. blu-ray (25th anniversary edition)
release format: flac, 16bit dual-mono at 44.1khz

please note: if you share this on another place, then don’t forget to give credit to the people making this release possible.

FLAC and not WAV?

flac = lossless and half the size. you want wav? transcode flac to wav ;)

All I have right now is the 1998 Anchor Bay Standard THX DVD release, will this synch to it?

it was specifically synced to the u.s. blu-ray. it may work on the dvd without further adjustment. to find out, you've to try it.

I read the first post so I knew it was synched to the Blu-ray, I just thought you might know if the Blu & the DVD were the same versions so I could synch it.  I'll give it a go myself.  Sorry for the confusion.

Depends on the cut, unrated vs R rated 

there is no unrated version of evil dead 2. at least not an official one.

As I thought, thanks for the confirmation ..... LOL

Thanks a billion for this! Sounds magnificent.

Thanks very much for this! Great work on here zeropc :)

Very nice work.  Worth the time it took to rip my bluray copy and mux in the new audio. Thanks!

Great, I now own another version of Evil Dead 2! At least this one I can say I made myself LOL

Awesome, now, fans of Evil Dead, we have our proper version of the movie !

I'd rather have uncompressed fullsize wav compared to FLAC. Why the unneeded compromise? So please upload the original uncompressed WAV.

Would plan on making a BD25 of this. Using the uncompressed WAV original mono track, I wouldn't use FLAC anyway, with the AVC of the USA 25th Anniversary Blu-ray sitting on my shelf.

Thanks for this, zeropc. Looking forward to hearing it.

Thank you very much!

Great work. It's always good to preserve original Laserdisc Audio!

Can't wait to test it.

I may be a little late but does anyone still have this one?
