Besides, maybe that was Raimi's intention was to make a slapstick horror cartoon. Between Evil Dead II and Drag Me To Hell he hasn't made anything related to horror (I don't count Army of Darkness) so yeah... there are definitely strong horror elements in Drag Me To Hell and that's enough to consider it a horror movie.Mr. Johnny Sandmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052255118249746992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736156794348437082.post-53577557867066593172010-10-22T18:25:05.599-05:002010-10-22T18:25:05.599-05:00Here's what really happened: Evil Dead came ou...Here's what really happened: Evil Dead came out and slid under the radar. Evil Dead II came out and everyone picked up on it, but only got half of the horror from the first with the other half replaced with more slapstick humor from Raimi's love of the 3 stooges. Decades later, he tries to return to form and misinterprets what the fans loved from Evil Dead II- the horror. SO, what we end up with is three quarters slapstick comedy peppered with horror = live action horror cartoon. /FAILAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
