Sam Raimi
Spider-Man (2002)
Zesty and essentially true to its source,
Spider-Man
does the job.
Spider (2002)
Spider-Man 2 (2004)
Freer and more commanding, even as it serves the grand designs of a superheroic trilogy.
Spider-Man 3 (2007)
Go-for-broke pop entertainment...more action, more humor, and more nastiness than either previous installment, often in loopy combinations.
Army of Darkness (1993)
Drag Me to Hell (2009)
Raimi puts his pent-up energy to good use in
Drag Me to Hell
, an unpretentious horror hoot that's scary and funny in equal measure.
Darkman (1990)
The wild pulp adventure that prefigured Raimi's eventual direction of the
Spider-Man
franchise...If you've a taste for Hollywood-funded outré,
Darkman
is one of those rare films that fits the bill.
Oz the Great and Powerful (2013)
Oz the Great and Powerful
gets saved from the junk heap by Franco and especially by director Sam Raimi, who happily treats the enterprise as a sandbox.
Ash vs Evil Dead: The Complete First Season (2015)
It's difficult to imagine how
Ash vs Evil Dead
could be any more fan-pleasing than it is...packed with all sorts of looney fun that conjures back up the "splatstick" style Raimi and friends popularized.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)
A legit comeback for Raimi...He meets the moment with the good ol' Raimi dynamism and winking movie-love savvy.
