ChristineChristine Brown is an ambitious L.A. loan officer. Life is good until the mysterious Mrs. Ganush arrives at the bank to beg for an extension on her home loan. Should Christine follow her instincts and give the old woman a break? Or should she deny the extension to impress her boss, Mr. Jacks, and get a leg-up on a promotion?

In retaliation, the old woman places the powerful curse of the Lamia on Christine, transforming her life into a living hell.

Owen Gleiberman

Raimi has made the most crazy, fun, and terrifying horror movie in years. Read full review

Matthew Sorrento

With brother Ivan as his co-writer, Sam tosses out a delightful batch of tense, hilarious set pieces. The two are giggling behind the proceeds like the Coen brothers scripting fresh off a critical triumph. Read full review

Stephanie Zacharek

Unlike so much contemporary horror, it's devoid of sadism and mean-spiritedness. The looseness Raimi allows himself here results in an especially joyous kind of filmmaking, the sort where the filmmaker's delight in scaring us (and making us laugh) becomes part of the movie's fabric.

Nick Pinkerton

If the booga-booga shocks are sometimes repetitive, Drag Me does its audience right in its last-act burst of giddy momentum, sustained by crack editor Bob Murawski through a burlesque exorcism. Read full review

Wesley Morris

Working with his brother Ivan, Sam Raimi is laughing with us - and often louder than we are. Read full review

Liam Lacey

An unabashedly schlocky, expertly executed blend of jack-in-the-box jolts and humour. Read full review

Kyle Smith

Drag Me to Hell is pure cheese. Goat cheese. Read full review
