333. Directorpiece Theatre: Drag Me To Hell and the Raimi Horror Sequence

Adam and Abe discuss Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell. Abe walks us through a few sequences and the tactics Raimi uses to spook us time and time again. Adam asks the very important question: what’s with all the mouth stuff? Abe doesn’t so much answer as continue to talk about cool tricks one could use to make their own Raimi homage.

I totally see it.

I just realized I read this in a cracked article in 2001.

Do you guys know the eating disorder/non supernatural descent into madness read of this film? I was aware of it on my first viewing, and it totally works.

HPLoveshaft

Abe agrees!

Tho in many ways you could see it as a critique of the American sense of justice. That would be stretching a bit tho.

Not liking a horror film cause the protagonist didn't deserve what happened to em? That's .... kinda why they're horror films. No one, usually, deserves what they get.

Pulp Fiction is absolutely a cult movie.

Additionally, this is why the term “gypped” is also quite offensive to many Romani people. It’s a double whammy of using a slur while also eluding to a duplicitous nature.

Jesse Jordan

Adam, since you asked to be corrected: Gypsy is a slur for the Romani people, sort of in the same way as saying Indian instead of Native American is a slur - it's a term created by outsiders based on an incorrect assessment of a groups ethnic origins.
