Ridiculous, long, boring drivel! Worst movie I've viewed in years!

Rating: 1/10 (1 June 2009)

Well, I'd first like to say that I've had an account on IMDb.com for many years and have voted on many titles, but never have I actually posted a review for a movie until now. But I felt the need to really get this off my chest.
"Drag me to hell", pardon the pun, made me feel like I was IN hell for the 1 hour and 39 minutes in which I had to endure it. There were many times where I wanted to just walk out of the theater but did not, thinking that "Sam Raimi has never made a bad movie, it will get better". Well, it didn't. It just kept getting worse.
The musical score was uninspired and sounded like a knockoff of "Exorcism of Emily Rose", the "special effects" were ridiculous, the writing was shoddy and copied far better "gypsy horror" genre films, such as Steven King's excellent "Thinner", which I'd recommend you see if you want to get a good idea of a gypsy horror film done properly. The acting was unconvincing and it was sad to see someone from a great series as "Sliders" reduced to this crap. I shall not give away the ending but suffice it to say, it really puts the final nail on the coffin on what could have been a good movie. Instead, we are left with an at times boring, ridiculous, cheap "scare" bore-fest.
I don't understand what other people see in this movie, but Evil Dead this was not. Shame on you, Sam Raimi. Shame on you!
