Drag Me to Hell: Difference between revisions

* [[Can You Hear Me Now]]: When the Lamia attacks, Christine attempts to call Clay. Of course, since [[A Wizard Did It|this is a supernatural demon we're talking about]], it doesn't work; the Lamia drains the battery power in 5 seconds, [[Jump Scare|then has an image of Mrs. Ganush jumping at Christine appear on the screen]].

* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: {{spoiler|The coin}}.

* [[Cool Car]]: Sam Raimi includes his 1973 Oldsmobile in all his movies. Here it is the Gypsy woman's.

* [[Cosmic Plaything]]: Poor Christine.

* [[Karma Houdini]] - Averted with Sylvia Ganush. She dies almost immediately after cursing Christine and has her corpse exhumed and gypsy-handled. And since odds are that she killed the boy in the intro and {{spoiler|curse killed Christine as well}}, there's really only one place she's going to end up. Hint, it's not [[Heaven]].

* [[Large Ham]]: The Lamia absolutely ''[[Chewing the Scenery|devours]]'' the scenery when it's summoned at the seance.

* [[Obnoxious In-Laws]]: Well, more like Boyfriend's Obnoxious Mother.

* [[Oh Crap]]: {{spoiler|When Christine realizes that she used the wrong envelope}}

* [[Ontological Inertia]] - The curse set upon Christine by the old woman is still in effect {{spoiler|even after the old woman dies}}.

* [[Orifice Invasion]] - The fly that ends up going into one of Christine's nostrils while she is sleeping, audily buzzes around inside her nasal cavity for several seconds, then crawls out her ''other'' nostril. And she doesn't wake up!

* [[Shoot the Dog]] - More like {{spoiler|stab the kitten}}.

* [[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]] - See [[Downer Ending]].

** ''[[Evil Dead]]'' - When the {{spoiler|Lamia possesses people, it might as well be a Deadite. It even makes a call back to the classic line "I'll swallow your soul"}}

*** A further ''Evil Dead'' shout-out occurs in Clay's description of the cottage he plans to take Christine to for the weekend - "Lots of trees, private..."
