Rob Hunter loves movies. He also loves working as a delivery driver for Planet Express. These two joys come together in the form of cash money payments that he receives every week and immediately uses to buy more DVDs.

With the release of Drag Me To Hell this weekend, we decided to take a look at a few accursed characters seen in film to learn a lesson about pissing off gypsies.

The obvious question this weekend is: will the box office go to hell, or will it go Up? Also — some more good Star Trek box office news.

A trio of high profile (well two you know and one you’ve never heard of) posters have arrived on the scene in recent days. One tries to capitalize on it’s star, another goes for a literal interpretation of it’s title, and the last highlights a tiny pair of hot Asian butt cheeks.

Although it wasn’t mentioned to the Paramount Theater’s packed house last night, the screening was a ‘work in progress’ cut of Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell. But if audience reaction last night is a true indicator, the vast majority of them loved the film. Work in progress or not.
