Christine Brown has a good job, a great boyfriend, and a bright future. But in three days, she's going to hell.
I can honestly say that it's the best horror flick in ages. Raimi did an absolutely marvellous job. It is the film that scares the crap out of you and makes you laugh, sometimes at the same time. It got very positive reviews, I mean how could it not when it is a masterpiece! Period.
One of the rottentomatoes.com review goes like this:
So, no, if you're looking for a modern classic -- something that's going to creepy-crawl under your skin like "Pan's Labyrinth," or "The Others," or "The Ring" or "The Sixth Sense" -- sorry. This bit of ghoulish, gory black comedy doesn't deliver on that level (mostly because it doesn't want to).
But if you're not looking for a coolly creepy, elegantly eerie classic -- if all you want are shocks and bumps and screams and laughs and a couple of they-did-NOT-just-show-that jawdroppers -- then "Drag Me To Hell" is definitely the funhouse ride for you.

When the film ended I rushed to the loo with some fellow scared girlies. The lights were off and we could see the silhouette of an old lady with a head scarf on, just like the gypsy from the film. We ran out of that toilet like crazy.Talking about mass hysteria huh?! :P
Well, after all we're all going to hell eventually...
