DVD Synopsis

Evil Dead director Sam Raimi takes the helm for this "spook-a-blast" shocker about an ambitious L.A. loan officer who incurs the wrath of a malevolent gypsy by refusing to grant her an extension on her home loan. Determined to impress her boss and get a much-needed promotion at work, Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) lays down the law when mysterious Mrs. Ganush (Lorna Raver) literally comes begging for mercy at her feet. In retaliation for being publicly shamed, Mrs. Ganush places the dreaded curse of the Lamia on her unfortunate target, transforming Christine's life into a waking nightmare. Her skeptical boyfriend, Clay (Justin Long), casually brushing off her disturbing encounters as mere coincidence, Christine attempts to escape eternal damnation by seeking out the aid of seer Rham Jas (Dileep Rao ). But Christine's time is fast running out, and unless she's able to break the curse, she'll be tormented by a demon for three days before literally being dragged to hell. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

I think ANYONE who likes horror movies with plenty of creepy gypsies, ghosts, legitimate jump scares & a bit of gross out moments that doesn't take itself TOO seriously will get a kick out of this Sam Raimi vehicle. This is Sam's answer to being called a "sell out" by doing big budget studio movies (namely the Spider-Man trilogy)...it goes to show he hasn't lost his touch one bit! Definitely worth a watch!

From everything I had seen online and through trailers I thought this was going to be a real shocker of a film. It has "gross out" moments but nothing that would honestly disturb a horror fan. Quite a few things are comical in it. Yes, I understand Sam Raimi (of Spider-Man and Evil Dead fame) directed it, but it left much to be desired. Am I glad I went out and bought it for retail price? No. Is it worth getting for a credit on here to check out on a lazy afternoon? Sure, just don't expect anything spectacular.

I must be jaded because so very little that is classified as horror appeals to me. At least this is definitely not in the "torture porn" category. It has its moments: some unexpected acts and disturbing images. Alison Lohman was never quite believable in the title role, but not a bad way to spend an afternoon.
