No, that doesn’t refer to the original Evil Dead, which Joel Coen worked on as an assistant editor. Small as it was in its initial release, that future classic opened on 15 screens. Crimewave, which Raimi directed from another Coens-and-Raimi screenplay, opened on two, out of contractual obligation to the studio’s HBO deal.
According to an interview with producer and demoted star Bruce Campbell on the movie’s Shout! Factory Blu-ray, the film’s U.S. release was confined to a screen apiece in Kansas and Alaska. (That release was 40 years ago, on April 25, 1986; IMDb and others list the movie as a 1985 release because it played around Europe first.) For years, despite presumably hitting HBO at some point, Crimewave was similarly hard to find on home video. Currently it tends to bounce around free streaming services, though the Blu-ray is out of print.
