Review of Drag Me to Hell (2009) by Hotelcentral — 20 Feb 2017

This is an entertaining horror flick, which, though never truly gripping, or terrifying, does deliver a few mild shocks while at times bordering on campy. Our heroine is generally endearing, ably played by Alison Lohman, and the whole cast performs their roles well. The dialog is well crafted and gives us a turn or two which I did not see coming -- and I am so used to spotting every twist and turn ten miles ahead of schedule that I must admit to feeling delighted by the surprises.

Drag Me To Hell, despite its foreboding title, will probably never be regarded as a horror classic simply because it's a lightweight bit of fun. Whether it will come to be seen as a "cult favorite" only time will tell. Meanwhile, I recommend it.
