Ep. 05-28: Drag Me to Hell (2009)

Listen Later
Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) has a loving boyfriend (Justin Long) and a great job at a Los Angeles bank. But her heavenly life becomes hellish when, in an effort to impress her boss, she denies an old woman’s request for an extension on her home loan. In retaliation, the crone places a curse on Christine, threatening her soul with eternal damnation. Christine seeks a psychic’s help to break the curse, but the price to save her soul may be more than she can pay.

Sam Raimi, it’s been way too long! Four seasons ago we discussed a little movie called The Evil Dead (1981) and why we have such a connection with it. Today we’re back in horror territory (as Sam was at the time) with 2009’s Drag Me to Hell. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of Sam’s return to horror, including the cast, screenplay, and special effects. Listen as Johnny Has the Keys has a very short time to remove a curse before demons come and drag us to hell!
