After getting us all through election season, Aughtsterion is concluding its first season with an elite level guest. Filmmaker April Wolfe joins Jordan and Sam to discuss Sam Raimi's odd man out of millennium horror with 2009's Drag Me To Hell. This one is a classic of the era by virtue of feeling completely out of place within it, but turns out that not only is this charmingly kitschy story of a demonic curse a little marvel of daylight horror with excellent performances from Alison Lohman and company, it's also... a passing story that's partly about the ills of capitalism. Listen to find out how Sam ties Miley Cyrus to the whole thing, and to hear April describe why Raimi is an eminently American filmmaker.
