I really liked the film, but it is rated R for a reason…….Language and most likely going to give kids under 14 nightmares. Very entreating, sure to make you jump out of your seat a couple times and also sure to make you laugh, (especially if you are an evil dead fan) I really only have one problem with it…..Christopher Young……really come on! I was very unhappy with his score and mainly because he tried to do an Elfmanisque movie score; and failed. See I kind of find it ironic because in Spiderman 2 it kinda went like this….
(Spiderman 2)
Sam Rami (director):“Danny, can you make it sound like Hell Raiser? You know Christopher Young like?”
Danny Elfman (film composer) :“Oh……um….no…Hell no go hire Chris if you want Hell Raiser”
Sam Rami (director): “okay”
But in Drag Me To Hell I’m sure the conversation went something like this.
(Drag Me to Hell)
Sam Rami (director): “Hey, Chris, can you make it sound like Danny Elfman?”
Chris Young (film composer): “okay”
It didn’t.
