Those films were what got me interested in the filmmaking craft, and the reason they were so magnetic is because of his ludicrous performance. And while it was great to see [...]
We heard a giant collective sigh coming from horror fans when Sam Raimi’s new thriller, Drag Me to Hell, landed a PG-13 rating -normally a death blow in the genre. The vaunted director of The Evil Dead and Army of Darkness explained the decision and why fans shouldn’t get hung up on his new movie’s [...]
