Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Drag Me To Hell' (2009)
I think what makes this movie so brilliant is how brutally unfair it is. I've mentioned this before in early reviews, it's hard to take the horror seriously if you're rooting for the killer to win. In order to really drive horror home, you have to make the viewer empathize with the victims. That's what really makes something terrifying, being able to step into the shoes of the horror victim. And here's the thing, this movie is kinda silly. So, imagine a movie that's kinda silly but with characters so well developed and easy to sympathize with that it's still good horror. I mean, the plot is what really drives it home. Imagine if an absolute Karen was given the ability to send people straight to hell. Scarry, right? I mean, if we really go over it, Alison Lohman's character really didn't do anything wrong. Yeah, it's never fun to be the other person on the end of evicting someone out of their home, but as she said, her boss really has the final call. Sure, the guy tries to absolve himself by telling her she has the last say, but so did Paunchous Pilot when he "Washed his hands" of the execution of Jesus. Her boss knew he was dangling her whole life over her head and through that was clearly using coercion to get the answer he wanted. Seriously, only an absolute Karen would blame the employee and not the Boss. You imagine if someone that self-righteous was able to just pick who goes to hell? Frightening shit right there.

Die, Monster, Die!
Die, Monster, Die! begins, 1965-style, with swirling psychedelic colors with the credits projected over them, and ends with Boris Karloff becoming a weird radioactive fallout boy. In between, Nick Adams arrives from America, and, just as in every other horror story dating back to at least 1897 and Dracula, is warned off of going to "that cursed place" by local villagers who drink imitation German beer out of imitation German beer steins.

Will Encountering Frightfulness Help Your Cerebrum?
Dread gets negative criticism. It's a purported gloomy inclination, one that probably remains among us and our fantasies. It is surely a fact that unadulterated trepidation doesn't feel significantly better, yet that is the general purpose of the inclination. Dread advises us to get the damnation out of Evade in light of the fact that Avoid is a terrible spot. Dread advanced more than great many years to shield us from risk. In this way, indeed, dread is a vibe terrible inclination, yet in addition, and maybe oddly, the motor in an entire scope of pleasurable exercises and ways of behaving — which motivate what we can call sporting trepidation.
