For example, in one scene Alison Lohman starts bleeding from her mouth, and when she goes to cover it, blood shoots from her nose all over the place. Raimi plays around with the audience by using the gross-out factor to the max.

HELL is like a comic book come to life that is full of color characters, crazy imagery and cheap gags that work every single time. The flavor of Raimi’s directing ability is brought out by masterful editing by Bob Murowski (Army of Darkness) as every scare is perfectly timed, every gag is delivered with a punch and all of the payoffs are perfectly executed.
Raimi stirs a delicious witches brew that blends gore, scares and fun into a perfect blend. Still, even through all of the rough edges, Raimi proved that he is still a master filmmaker.ĭRAG ME TO HELL was quite simply the most PERFECT horror film I’ve seen in a long, long while. To put it simply, it’s far from completed. To be clear, what I saw was a very early workprint of the film, which featured a temp score, unfinished effects, and was projected on a Digit Beta (yet to be color corrected). Last night my curiosity got the best of me as I snuck into a test screening of DRAG ME TO HELL in Burbank, CA. Therefore, my expectations were extremely low and I was convinced I’d be disappointed with his big return to horror. I felt wounded and insulted that we still haven’t received our EVIL DEAD 4 and didn’t understand why he’d do DRAG instead of another adventure of Ashley J. While Raimi returned to horror with Universal Pictures’ DRAG ME TO HELL, I can’t say I was waiting with open arms. Now, after directing three SPIDER-MAN films and becoming one of the biggest names in the industry, Raimi has returned to the genre he started in. After ARMY OF DARKNESS failed to perform at the box office, the creator of THE EVIL DEAD franchise moved away from horror and into the mainstream fold.
It has technically been 16 years since the legendary director has got behind the camera for a horror film. Read David Harley’s review **Spoilers follow**
