Pretty bank loan officer Christine (Alison Lohman) is trying to work her way up the career ladder to the assistant manager’s role. The plot of Drag Me to Hell is certainly strong enough. But in the ’00s would that combination work as well as it did in the ’80s and early ’90s? For the most part, the answer is yes, but not without its issues. Drag Me to Hell appeared to meld a scary, witch’s curse-led tale which meant plenty of creepy and jumpy moments throughout, with a heavy line of dark, over-the-top humour a combination that made Raimi’s original Evil Dead trilogy a cult hit and Bruce Campbell a horror icon the world over. Released in the spring of 2009 to mostly overwhelmingly positive reviews, Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi’s new attempt at horror definitely felt like a shot in the arm for horror fans everywhere.
