What’s that old saying about one for the studio, one for you? Sam Raimi had done three for the studio by spending over half a decade on his Spider-Man trilogy but roared back to his comedy-horror roots with Drag Me to Hell. A wickedly mean-spirited morality tale, bank loan officer Christine (Alison Lohman) puts corporate policy ahead of basic morality and ends up on the wrong side of a curse for her sins. Late-night horror host Roxy Midnite introduces this disgustingly insightful mix of political satire and slapstick. – Richard Whittaker
