Leave My Kitten Alone

Rating: Null/10 (3 December 2009)

DRAG ME TO HELL is a salute to the Classic "B" Horror format of the late 1950's. Sam Raimi has created a film which implores you to have fun with the absurd plot twists which inexorably race toward a dire conclusion. The viewer is frantically plunged into the world of a young bank officer, played by Alison Lohman, who has incurred the wrath of a wizened gypsy crone with satanic powers, and if she doesn't act quickly, her immortal soul is toast. You find yourself anxiously imploring the protagonist to follow your directions, not based so much on what you are watching, but based on your knowledge of the genre. We all know some of the Cardinal Rules of "B" Movie Horror; Never assume it's just the wind, Be very aware of the sinister background music, Never utter the phrase, "I'll be right back", Don't go into the basement, and most important, Never decline to obey a baleful gypsy sorceress !!! If you liked the greats of kitschy horror such as, THE TINGLER, THE BLOB, SCREAMING SKULL, and TERROR FROM THE YEAR 5000, you'll probably thoroughly enjoy this film.
