13 Phones of Halloween #6

.

Something...


... wicked...


... this...


... way...


... RINGS!!!

Yesterday was Sam Raimi's 55th birthday, so let's celebrate by paying tribute his last great movie, 2009's Drag Me To Hell. (Sorry Oz, but no.) This was one of my favorite scares in the movie (that image of the witch on the cell phone has been an MNPP banner in the past!) because of its silly chutzpah - it's a great way to bring the curse right into the room with a surprise sleight-of-hand. And somehow I never noticed that we can see Alison Lohman's hands trying to hold the witch off in the shot too - what a nice little touch, breaking down the barrier between the two spaces even further.

Whoa! I didn't know Gary Busey was the badguy in this movie.
