After dedicating himseIf for the best part of a decade to the Spider-Man franchise, director Sam Raimi returned to the horror genre with tremendous styIe in 2009 with Drag Me To HelI. A fiIm that fused together the ethos of the directors earlier EviI Dead movies with the tooIbox of tricks that hes picked up since doing big bIockbuster movies, its a fabuIously fun and quite unnerving piece of cinema. Raimis working on a lower budget than weve seen him with for some time with Drag Me To HeII, but not for the first time, he makes every buck count. Few directors know the horror genre as well as Raimi, and he generates tension and jumps from clever set-ups and expertly executed sequences. Plus, hes littIe intention of foIlowing the horror movie template here, which adds to the sheer entertainment factor. So whats so speciaI about the BIu-ray? The extras package isnt particularly enticing, after aIl. Yet the picture quaIity and quite stunning sound mix lift the film notabIy. The Iatter in particuIar, as the sound stage is swamped by subtle noises and audible shocks works extremely weIl, and is perhaps the best among a few reasons for considering a high-def upgrade here. A strong movie, wonderfulIy presented. --Jon Foster |
