Then there's Drag Me to Hell, in which Sam Raimi returns to his "Evil Dead" roots and Alison Lohman stars as a loan officer at a California bank at war with demons or something. Entertainment Weekly's Owen Gleiberman calls it "a delirious psych-out of a horror film... a candy-colored ghouls-gone-wild nightmare that treats every shock as a joke — or, at least, as an invitation to crack up at your own gullibility...Raimi's operating model is the fun house, with its jack-in-the-box terrors, but he doesn't just toy with the audience. He plays it, like a maestro. He orchestrates a tongue-in-cheek symphony of fear... the most crazy, fun, and terrifying horror movie in years."
