Evil Dead Burn, the latest chapter in Sam Raimi's iconic horror franchise, is heading to home audiences sooner than expected. After making its theatrical debut on July 10, 2026, the film will arrive on Premium Digital platforms in the U.S. and Canada on August 4, with 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD editions scheduled for release on September 22.
The home release comes less than a month after the movie hit theaters, following a modest box office run that has earned more than $63.5 million worldwide, including $29.3 million domestically.

Evil Dead Burn box office performance
The quick digital release follows a relatively underwhelming theatrical performance. Evil Dead Burn opened with $13.7 million during its opening weekend and has since earned approximately $29.3 million in North America and $63.5 million globally.
While the film recovered its reported $20 million production budget, it fell well short of its predecessor, Evil Dead Rise, which collected around $70 million domestically and nearly $150 million worldwide.
The movie currently holds a 71% score on Rotten Tomatoes, compared with the 85% earned by Evil Dead Rise in 2023.
What is Evil Dead Burn about?
Directed by Sébastien Vaniček, Evil Dead Burn serves as a loose sequel to Evil Dead Rise. The story follows Alice Price, played by Souheila Yacoub, who reunites with her in-laws at a remote house after the death of her abusive husband.
Their gathering soon turns into a nightmare as they become entangled with the terrifying forces connected to the Book of the Dead and the deadly Deadites.
The film also stars Tandi Wright, Hunter Doohan, Luciane Buchanan, Maude Davey, Erroll Shand, and George Pullar.
Although the sequel leans less on the dark humor seen in previous entries, it has been praised by many horror fans for its intense practical effects, graphic kills, and Yacoub's lead performance.
Is Evil Dead Burn streaming on HBO Max?
As of now, Warner Bros. has not announced an official streaming release date for Evil Dead Burn on HBO Max. Fans who want to watch the film at home will need to purchase it digitally beginning August 4 or wait for the physical release on September 22.
What's next for the Evil Dead franchise?
The franchise is already moving forward with another installment. Warner Bros. has scheduled Evil Dead Wrath for release on April 7, 2028.
Directed by Francis Gallupi, the upcoming film will serve as a prequel to the original Evil Dead, with the story set in 1972. The studio is hoping the April release window—similar to Evil Dead (2013) and Evil Dead Rise (2023)—will help the next installment achieve stronger box office results.
For fans who missed Evil Dead Burn in theaters or want to revisit its brutal Deadite carnage, the upcoming digital and physical releases provide the first opportunity to experience the horror sequel from home.
