...that are considering seeing Drag Me To Hell (as I was)...
<<Screen Daily's Brent Simon allays fears that Raimi has gone soft with a PG-13 rating: "It's unlikely that most horror buffs will feel cheated. The director gleefully dispenses with the usual sacred cows (neither children nor kittens are safe), and also leans on wild gross-out moments to goose his audience.">>
This really ticks me off. Raimi has produced nothing scary since the Evil Dead; since everyone has grown weary of the Grudge "franchise", and he wasn't able to replicate the quality Japanese horror he was ripping off, we apparently get this instead.
I'm a firm believer in life imitating art, and a certain "validation" that can occur with the mere witnessing of an event.
Not cool.
