I don't get the discrepancy in score with this movie. One of my friends said it was absolutely terrible, yet another said it was amazing and a must see.
Is it like a certain type of humor that only cult followers of this guy can appreciate?
Drag Me to Hell
Not so much cult followers but more people who like Raimi's take on comedy/horror.
If you liked his Evil Dead films and Darkman you'll love this film.
I suppose a lot of people would go to see it because it was "made by the director of the Spiderman movies" but it is as far from those types of films as possible.
This is classic Raimi, not classic DC or Marvel comics......
I'm not so convinced by this theory. The trailers for this film don't hint at all that the movie would be akin to the Evil Dead movies. I've not seen it myself but i do like the Evil Dead movies and i have no inclination to watch Drag me To Hell, it's a personal pov but i can't see where people would find the suggestion that they'd be getting more of the "Evil Dead" esque horror from the film. Maybe the film is very much like it when you watch it but the trailer is not indicative i don't believe.
Horor movies are generally hit and miss, love/hate things. If you don't like it don't be shocked if someone else loves it, you don't need conspiracies of "cults" or "fanboys" or whatever, they may exist but you don't need them.
