Ok, everyone was like AHH GO SEE THIS! its the return of sam rami!! we love it!! This movie is cheap, cheasey, and chaotic! More of a laugh fest than a horror. Totally predictable as well...

A stylish, witty, and highly entertaining little horror romp with just the right amount of horror, humour, and gross out. This is Raimi back in top form, doing what he does best!
Highly recommended. -

Homage to old school horror from Raimi which starts promisingly but descends into mumbo jumbo. Nice set pieces and stirling work from Lohman can't hide a plot twist so obvious it might as well have been written large across the screen. Missed opportunity.

I had high expectations for Sam Raimi's return to horror, but I was disappointed.

This is no scary horror at all! I can understand horror fans don't like this movie cause it's just not scary. Though I liked it! There were a few exciting moments and the ending is very good!
The story appeals to me, but I didn't like the comedy influences in it.. It's a horror/t...( read more) -

vacca boia questo è esattamente il tipico film horror in cui il regista (sam raimi, che delusione!) fa venire allo spettatore un cazzo di crepacuore con quei cazzo di "UAAAAH" "BUUUUUUUUUUH" "EEEEEEEEH" "YAAAAAAAA" che se non fosse per l'audio che uccide il timpano ti farebbe dir...( read more)
Critic Reviews
The looseness Raimi allows himself here results in an especially joyous kind of filmmaking, the sort where the filmmaker's delight in scaring us (and making us laugh) becomes part of the movie's fabric. full review
Is it as hilarious as the Evil Deads? Almost. full review
One of the best horror films to be seen in many years. full review
There's no truth in the title. Drag Me to Hell is horror-movie heaven. full review
The characters are solid, the shocks are grab-your-heart-medicine scary, the story glides from twist to twist with diabolical grace. And it's damned funny. full review
With the same twisted humor Raimi displayed in Evil Dead and Army of Darkness, his Drag Me to Hell is wickedly jolly and disturbingly frightening -- often at the same time. full review
An unabashedly schlocky, expertly executed blend of jack-in-the-box jolts and humour. full review
Drag Me to Hell is unlike any scary thriller in a while: frightening, frenzied and fun. full review

December 5, 2009Really really disappointing. The acting was good (Allison Lohman,Justin Long) but the "special effects" were so cheesy, over the top, and a failed attempt at comedic gore that it was almost unwatchable. The lines between comedy and horror blurred enough to give me a headache, and the story went from well-written scares to low-budget stupidity seemingly written by a pre-teen boy, too fast to keep track of. Add an ending that we all saw coming in the saddest most predictable way, and you have a failure of a movie with some great casting.

October 20, 2009I don't think I jumped out of my chair this many times before. And I love that (intended or not) homage to CARRIE.

June 12, 2009One of the least boring horrors I ever seen.
So sick of horrors that take themselves WAY too serious. It get's to the point you laugh at the movie, and the Director wasn't aiming for laughs. With this movie you laugh, however the Director wanted it. Great movie. -
June 12, 2009i absolutly love horror films, when they are scary, this movie sucked. it was one of the worst ones i have seen. this is some stupid underground made movie and it shoulda stayed there as well.

June 7, 2009Absolute crap from start to finish. So much for Sam Raimi ever being considered a horror director again. Very disappointing.
