Drag Me to Hell, 2009

Ever since getting into horror films (quite a recent thing for me) I have employed a strict WAHO (Watch At Home Only) policy. There's a very good reason for this. Many years ago I accidentally saw a scary movie at the cinema and spent the whole journey home looking over my shoulder and checking the back seat of my car for psychotic axe-murderers!!!
However, this film came up and I decided to take the plunge and give it a go on the big screen. What a mistake! After about 10 mins of jump-out-of-your-seat terror, I turned to Matt and said "I've messed up, I can't cope!". He laughed and told me that was the whole point, to get scared. Top-notch acting, PLENTY of frights and not too bad a story line. Although I was utterly exhausted at the end the film, I did have a big smile on my face as my first WOBS (Watch On Big Screen) experience has been a great one. Highly recommend you all go out and scare yourself silly with this one!
