Podcast appearances and mentions of Sam Raimi

Just in time for the spooky season, we're reaching deep into the furthest, darkest reaches of the Bullseye archives for this conversation with Bruce Campbell. The cult movie actor starred in Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead" – an absolute horror classic. When we talked to Bruce in 2011 he spoke with our correspondent Jordan Morris about the DIY aesthetic of his projects, obsessive fans, and how he came to make cult horror movies.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

This week's Empire Podcast sees Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara and James Dyer pay tribute to two cinematic greats who left us this week: the legendary Oscar-winning actress, Diane Keaton, and Drew Struzan, the artist who defined posters, and people's walls, for decades. Struzan's work inspires this week's question, which asks our trio to identify the greatest poster of all time. Elsewhere in the show, they discuss the week's movie news, including the return of Sam Raimi, and review Roofman, After The Hunt, Black Phone 2, and briefly discuss Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein and Edward Berger's Ballad Of A Small Player. Guest-wise, our cup overfloweth yet again, as Chris sits down on Zoom (sorry about his audio track, he didn't have access to his microphone) with Rebecca Miller, director of the excellent Apple documentary about Martin Scorese, Mr. Scorsese, [25:26 - 40:19 approx] and in person with the delightful stars of Roofman, Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst. [1:04:01 - 1:19:13 approx] And Sophie Butcher has a lovely chat with Black Phone 2 stars, Mason Thames (who, contrary to what Chris thinks, does not pronounce his name like the river) and Madeleine McGraw. [1:43:07 - 1:58:08 approx] Enjoy!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay get groovy baby, during Spooky Sleazon as they discuss the indescribable classic, 'Evil Dead II.' Andy kicks it off telling a story about the time he and friends tried to channel their own Ash-like maybe by having chainsaw battles, and it turned out about as well as reading a passage from the Necronomicon. Then the fellas make an argument for this being possibly the greatest film of all-time as it starts as a one man show that blends live action Looney Tunes-style comedy with truly unsettling moments. Body parts get severed, blood pours from every conceivable opening, and it's all held together by the undeniable charisma — and classic Hollywood good looks — of Bruce Campbell. The 'Evil Dead' franchise not only reshaped horror, but the reverberations of its impact changed comic book movies forever as director Sam Raimi would later be given the keys to one of the biggest franchises of all-time. Check out the ep, and you'll be having a burning in helluva good time. 

On this week's OTS News, we talk about our favorite wrestling finishers, the Peacemaker S2 finale, and which movie trilogy is better between Sam Raimi's Spider-Man versus Christopher Nolan's Dark KnightWant more Cousins Of The Cosmos?

Spooktoberfest takes a super-heroic turn as we shine a light on 1990's Darkman. Directed by the amazing Sam Raimi over a decade before he tackled Spider-Man, Darkman features a very different sort of crimefighter. Dr. Peyton Westlake is busy developing a revolutionary “synthetic skin” intended to treat burn victims, but the substance is unable to handle prolonged exposure to light. Westlake is soon forced to don his own creation after being attacked and disfigured by crime boss Robert G. Durant. Dead to the world, Westlake adopts a variety of new faces as he sabotages Durant's operation from within. Westlake uncovers a larger scheme involving the ambitious real estate mogul Louis Strack, who has his eyes on Westlake's girlfriend Julie. Desperate to rebuild his life with Julie, Westlake continues fighting and forging new masks. But as “Darkman” emerges from the shadows of Westlake's mind, how much of a future can the doctor hope to have?

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT MAY DISTURB SOME LISTENERS.  What's the rumpus? This week TGTPTU gives the Coen Brothers movie classic MILLER'S CROSSING (1990) the treatment as part of its Squib Season, see.  Lensed by Barry Sonnenfeld in his last frolic as the brothers' cinematographer, Ethan Coen told the man with a golden eye that Miller's Crossing should be a handsome film about men in hats, and Sonnenfeld delivers the goods with one spectacularly shot period piece from the Prohibition Era.  The picture stars Gabriel Byrne as Tom Reagan, the hard-drinking, harder-gambling Irish consigliere who knows all the angles, who's having an affair with his boss's skirt Verna Bernbaum (played by Marcia Gay Harden, who shortly after filming would originate the role of Harper Pitt in Tony Kushner's two-part play Angels in America, see Season 7 of TGTPTU for more!).  Pod favorite John Turturro plays her brother Bernie, a conniving low-life crook who causes the friction in the ranks and can turn on the waterworks when needed. Jon Polito plays a loving dad allergic to the high-hat and with his right-hand J. E. Freeman playing the Dane (same year he'd star in Wild at Heart, see Season 4) they plan to take over the town from Albert Finney in one of his two roles as Tom's boss Leo (the other appearance uncredited, spoilers during the episode for this Easter egg). Also, director and occasional second-unit-for-the-Coens-director Sam Raimi (and, can you believe it, brother of actor Ted Raimi from Hard Target covered earlier this Squib Games season!) shows up to plug a speakeasy patron grabbing air before himself getting gatted. And if you still haven't had your fill, at this buffet of talent we even get a smattering of Steve Buscemi delivering ratatat dialogue for a scene.   This ep, Jack brings the book report, Thomas the Danish facts, Ken reenacts the experience of watching Miller's Crossing with him by dropping movie quotes throughout the episode, Ryan brings up Gabriel Byrne's acting chops, and all four hosts harmonize on the greater good.   Now get outta here. You're stinking up the joint.  THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi cut deep into Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead (1981)—the raw, relentless, cabin-in-the-woods classic that jump-started a whole splatter language. We unpack how Raimi's scrappy camera attacks, Tom Sullivan's gnarly makeup/stop-motion, and Bruce Campbell's live-wire performance forged a cult juggernaut on a shoestring. We also trace the Michigan-to-Tennessee origin story (yes, that Morristown cabin), why the movie's fever-dream logic still rattles modern audiences, and how the film's ratings saga (X → NC-17; many releases unrated) fed its outlaw reputation.  Inside this episodePure nightmare mode: Why the 1981 original plays it straight—and meaner—than its sequels, leaning into fever-dream momentum instead of jokey splatter.DIY brutality: Tom Sullivan's prosthetics and stop-motion meltdown; Raimi's aggressive camera grammar that makes the cabin feel alive. From Michigan to Morristown: How a Detroit proof-of-concept led to a Tennessee shoot—and the enduring lore around that cabin site. (We discuss the oft-told lightning-strike story and what locals say.) The ratings fight: Festival buzz, an X rating, later NC-17 notes, and why many home releases stayed unrated—fueling the film's “forbidden” aura. Where to watch (U.S.) — checked Sept 23, 2025Prime Video — https://www.amazon.com/Evil-Dead-Bruce-Campbell/dp/B01CY5KYRCFandango at Home (Vudu) — https://athome.fandango.com/content/browse/details/The-Evil-Dead/13752Apple TV — https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/the-evil-dead/umc.cmc.2zdhjrx2rwh7e0hu6a0iczqfqJustWatch (availability tracker) — https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/the-evil-deadQuick-answer FAQHow scary is it?

PG-13 rating be damned, Drag Me To Hell (2009) might be one of the most horrifying movies we've covered yet. Between the flies and the mucusy sound effects and the embalming fluid, it isn't afraid to go for the gross-out factor — and the timing packed a powerful punch, too. Despite being penned a decade earlier after writer-director Sam Raimi wrapped up the original Evil Dead franchise, this flick's release landed it smack-dab in the middle of the late 00s housing crisis, something that's surprisingly relevant to the setup. On our latest Spooky Tuesday, we're diving deep into the discourse as we talk throat goats, Justin Long, diet culture, and White Phillip.

The wheel on the show keeps on spinnin', but at least the spin is entertaining. Peacemaker goes head to fist with Flag, Leota may have a new career and there are astonishing revelations about Eagley. Also: is it too simple for the alternate Earth to be a white supremacist world, or does that actually offer Peacemaker a chance at the redemption he's long wanted?Before that: Tom Holland gets injured on the set of the new Spider-Man, we congratulate my girlfriend on her new Emmy and Doomsday finishes shooting.

This week we head back into the MVM archives to take you behind the scenes on the making of the 2011 Thor movie! We'll explore the failed attempts to make a Thor movie in the 90's and 2000's - from Sam Raimi, to Matthew Vaughan, to Guillermo del Toro! We'll dive into Kenneth Branagh's long fandom with Marvel Comics and the stories of Thor, and the big conflicts he had with Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios! We'll take you inside the casting of the movie, the big name stars who nearly wielded the hammer, how Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston got their roles, and the disdain that Anthony Hopkins has for this movie! We also dig-in to just how important this movie was to the success of Marvel Studios - after the failure of Incredible Hulk, Marvel badly needed Thor to be a hit!

A spot of smoky rooms and heavy drapes suits us as finely as they do Lew, and somehow the more obscure the corner of history referred to by the couple-three iconoclasts he meets, the more our hosts find to discuss.

This week, Jeff and Garret dive into Sam Raimi's 2000 Southern gothic thriller The Gift. They comment on the deplorable depths of Keanu Reeve's abusive character, the film's eerie atmosphere, Cate Blanchett's gripping performance as a small-town psychic, and how Raimi blends supernatural tension with real-world drama. From its chilling mystery to its star-studded cast, this episode uncovers why The Gift still leaves us feeling haunted.Would you like to hear an episode about one of your favorite directors, or films?

Troy and Roger dive into Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell (2009), a horror ride that mixes jump scares with slapstick in only the way Raimi can. They unpack the plight of Christine Brown, a loan officer whose one bad choice leads to a curse that makes her life.....well....absolute hell. From gross-out gags involving dentures and goats to the unforgettable showdown with Mrs. Ganush, the guys revel in the film's balance of camp and terror. They also dig into the morality at the film's core, questioning whether Christine really deserved her fiery fate. Along the way, they gush over Raimi's signature style, the film's inventive sound design, and that jaw-dropping ending. It's a conversation that proves horror doesn't always have to be serious to still pack a punch. Find out more at https://dark-night-of-the-podcast.pinecast.co

Available HERE. Blockbuster box office. Critical acclaim and Oscars recognition. From Get Out and M3GAN to The Substance and Sinners, the horror genre is enjoying a glorious–and gory–golden age. Screaming and Conjuring details the films and frights that led to this extraordinary renaissance, from the release of the groundbreaking Scream in 1996 to the arrival of 2013's The Conjuring, which spawned a multi-billion dollar franchise. Written by entertainment journalist Clark Collis (author of You've Got Red on You: How Shaun of the Dead Was Brought to Life), this exhaustively researched book is the first in-depth examination of a remarkably fertile and influential time for big screen horror. Wes Craven's Scream was followed by a flood of classic terror tales such as The Blair Witch Project, The Sixth Sense, Final Destination, The Others, Pan's Labyrinth, 28 Days Later, Resident Evil, Saw, Hostel, Paranormal Activity, and Insidious. This comprehensive history covers the often difficult and tortuous making of all these films (and many more), giving readers the exclusive lowdown on productions which were often as intense as the horrifying sights that ended up on screen. Screaming and Conjuring features recollections from a host of genre icons, including actors Jamie Lee Curtis and Neve Campbell, directors Eli Roth and Sam Raimi, and legendary makeup effects artist Greg Nicotero. The book also includes 200 production stills, film posters, and rarely seen images. Blood. Sweat. Tears. More blood. Clark Collis takes you behind the scenes, and the scares, with this fascinating history of the modern horror movie. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Enjoy Movies!  This week, we head back to the Cold War comedy days of Spies Like Us (1985), directed by John Landis and written by Dan Aykroyd, Lowell Ganz, and Babaloo Mandel. Inspired by the Hope/Crosby “Road” pictures, the film takes a satirical jab at espionage and military absurdities of the Reagan Era. Aykroyd and Chevy Chase play bumbling “spies” who are unwittingly used as decoys in a high-stakes mission to distract the Russians, only to accidentally stumble into the real operation and prevent World War III. We break down the story, the scathing humor, and the long list of cameos, from Frank Oz and Bob Hope to filmmakers Sam Raimi, Terry Gilliam, and Ray Harryhausen.

SPOILER ALERT!!! AS WITH ALL SPECIAL EDITIONS WE HAVE A LOT TO SAY AND SAY IT ALLHorror movies have ramped up their marketing efforts in recent years. Weapons is the latest example. The movie created a website, released two hour security cam footage, along with traditional tactics like an awesome poster and excellent trailer. The end result? It exceeded box office expectations.Where does Zach Cregger stand among current horror directors? There is a very strong argument that he is the best at mixing horror and humor. And this includes the Winters and Osgood Perkins. Along with being satisfying, the ending of Weapons is one of the funniest of the year.The major twist comes well before the final moments. How much people enjoy the twist will also determine how much they like the film. More so than any other movie in recent memory. It will be the point of return for everyone who watches it. For some, Weapons will not be able to do any wrong; for others it will be a complete turnoff.Non-linear storytelling is very tricky to pull off. Not only can it disorient the audience, but it can open things up to plot holes. We talk about one possible issue with Weapons and another nitpick. We also debate how effectively Weapons told its story.Whatever a person's final opinion on Weapons, there is no denying the amazing performances. There has been a shift the past few years, but horror tends to get ignored around awards season. It may not end up getting nominated for anything, but it would be surprising if some names from Cregger's release are not thrown around. One character will definitely be an inspiration for Halloween.What does the success of another original movie IP mean for horror movies in the future? Obviously, franchises and Stephen King adaptations are not going to end; they are the lifeblood of the genre. But will studios be willing to take more risks on new properties?

The film is bloated, it's busy, it showcases numerous failures at human communication, and doesn't hit some points it needs to. And yet, Spider-Man 3 screenwriter Alvin Sargent managed to weave together the many plotlines thrust on him to make a script with a message – although not necessarily the one director Sam Raimi had … Continue reading “Spider-Man 3” (2007)

In this episode of 2004: A Film Odyssey, Mirandia and Ben suit up to swing through one of the greatest superhero sequels of all time — Spider-Man 2. From Doc Ock's iconic villain arc to Peter Parker's soul-crushing struggle with responsibility, we're diving deep into the emotional (and very meme-able) heart of Sam Raimi's web-slinging masterpiece.   We talk bad pizza delivery timing, train fights that still hold up, and why Tobey Maguire's sad eyes broke a generation. Plus: Ben shares a personal ranking of Spider-Man actors, Mirandia relives her first Spider-crush, and we both get slightly too outraged over phone etiquette. (We know it has nothing to do with the film but…)   Whether you were Team MJ, Team “Give Peter a Break,” or just here for the J. Jonah Jameson quotes, this one's for you.

From Sam Raimi, the acclaimed directer of the Evil Dead Trilogy AND Spider-Man Trilogy comes this action thriller which FEELS as if it was based upon a comic book though was actually an original concept developed by Raimi when he was unable to land the rights for The Shadow back in the late '80's.  Oscar-nominee Liam Neeson (Schindler's List, Taken) stars as Payton, a mild-mannered scientist trying to develop synthetic skin.   Oscar-winner Frances McDormand (Fargo, Nomadland) plays his attorney girlfriend Julie who uncovers a real estate scam, and Emmy-winner Larry Drake (LA Law, Dr. Giggles) plays Durant, the mob enforcer who comes along with his goons to rough up Peyton for the evidence, brutalize him, and leave him for dead after dipping much of his body in acid leaving him burned all over....only Peyton isn't dead.  And what results is a wild, crazy, and quotable revenge thriller which came out 35 years ago this summer and developed into a cult hit.WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE PORTRAYED VIA MOVIE CLIPSHost & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Hail to the queen, baby, and join the ghouls as we celebrate our hostess with the most-ess, Jacki one of our favorite regulars, AJ. This time, we do not try to scare AJ, but, rather, let him chuckle along at the silly shenanigans that are Sam Raimi's Army of Darkness. The gang celebrates the film's groovy FX. They give Bruce Campbell the props he deserves, and they chuckle at the films slapstick. Marissa, of course, goes on to bring everyone down with a feminist rant about the Evil Dead Movies. But Marissa does redeem herself with some fun history of slapstick comedy trivia. So happy birthday Jacki, you little she-bitch. You really are the heart, brains, and beauty of the ghouls empire.

This week we're saddling up with The Quick and the Dead (1995), Sam Raimi's spaghetti western by way of a Looney Tunes fever dream. Sharon Stone rides into town with a score to settle, Russell Crowe tries to outrun his past, and Gene Hackman chews the scenery like it's a steak he overcooked himself. Leonardo DiCaprio is all charm and babyface bravado, and every gunfight is a crash zoom carnival of smoke, sweat, and a ticking clock. It's duels at high noon, showdowns at sundown, and the kind of over-the-top visual flair that makes you wonder if the camera's going to start shooting bullets too. We're locking, loading, and going full Raimi on this one. Did you enjoy the episode? Don't forget to hit that subscribe button and join us for more retro movie discussions! Want even more?

It's our third episode of Patreon Request "Month" 2025, and the randomizer is going all the way back to 2002 to pick Joejira's request for one of the most groundbreaking superhero epics of all time, a box office record-shattering worldwide phenomenon that finally brought one of the most legendary comic book characters ever created to the big screen in a timeless coming-of-age fable about great power and great responsibility, helmed by an offbeat yet aesthetically perfect visionary filmmaker. It also contains an extended cameo from a dead pro-wrestler who used to do Slim Jim commercials, a line of dialogue about Julia Roberts in a thong, and a scene in which Evil Scorsese-Jesus tries to make a case for objectivism on a rooftop while dressed kinda like a Power Ranger. Yeah, this one's a lot goofier than you remember, folks.

Read transcriptWelcome back, web-slingers and button-mashers, to another delightfully unhinged episode of Play Comics! This week we're crawling back to 2002, when flip phones were cutting-edge technology, everyone was still trying to figure out what the heck a “blog” was, and Activision decided the best way to capitalize on Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movie was to let Treyarch loose with a development kit and what we can only assume were several energy drinks and a prayer. We're diving deep into the pixelated web-slinging wonderland that somehow convinced an entire generation that swinging through New York City while your webs mysteriously attach to invisible sky anchors was totally normal. This PS2, Xbox, GameCube, and Game Boy Advance spectacular managed to squeeze Tobey Maguire's voice into a polygonal suit while adding enough extra villains to make you wonder if someone at Treyarch had been hoarding Spider-Man action figures since childhood and finally found an excuse to use them all. Joining us for this nostalgic journey through early 2000s gaming jank is the magnificent Chris Ferrell from All Things Good and Nerdy and The Official GonnaGeek Show! Chris brings his encyclopedic knowledge of all things delightfully nerdy to help us navigate the treacherous terrain between movie adaptation and comic book faithfulness. He's the perfect guide for exploring whether this game captured the essence of everyone's favorite wall-crawler or just gave us a really expensive tech demo for air-based web physics that would make actual physics professors weep quietly into their coffee. So dust off those sixth-generation consoles, prepare for some seriously chunky character models, and join us as we swing into action with a game that dared to ask the important question: “What if we took a two-hour movie and stretched it into twelve hours of gameplay by adding every Spider-villain we could think of?” The answer, as you'll discover, involves more air combat than anyone expected and enough stealth sequences to make you appreciate that this was made before every game decided it needed a mandatory stealth section. Get ready for web-slinging, wall-crawling, and more mid-air punching than should be physically possible – it's time to find out if this early millennium marvel holds up or if it belongs in the same category as those websites that still think animated GIFs are the height of digital sophistication. Learn such things as: How do you decide who to use as a boss in a movie tie in game? Will we ever have a bad Spider-Man game ever again? What if…..Chris had latched onto The Flash instead of Spidey? And so much more! You can find Chris on BlueSky @chrisferrell.bsky.social and of course his podcasts All Things Good and Nerdy and The Official GonnaGeek Show.

Play ball! This week on Cocktails & Classics, we step up to the plate with the 1999 baseball drama, "For the Love of the Game," starring Kevin Costner. Join us as we explore Billy Chapel's poignant journey to throw a perfect game while reflecting on his life and loves. We'll discuss the film's blend of sports action and romance, its portrayal of a legendary pitcher, and its place among iconic baseball movies. Feeling nostalgic for the diamond? Don't miss this heartfelt episode, fueled by classic cocktails and engaging discussions.The Kevin Costner Effect: Baseball's Leading Man: It's almost a given: if there's a serious baseball movie, Kevin Costner is probably in it. For the Love of the Game marks his third major turn on the diamond, following Bull Durham and Field of Dreams. How does his portrayal of Billy Chapel in For the Love of the Game compare to his other iconic baseball characters? Sports & Romance Blend: Balancing the Mound and the Heart: For the Love of the Game isn't just a baseball movie; it's a sports romance drama. The intense, almost meditative focus on Billy Chapel's perfect game on the mound is constantly interrupted by flashbacks to his tumultuous relationship with Jane Aubrey (Kelly Preston). We'll analyze whether this blend enhances or detracts from both storylines.The "Perfect Game" Narrative: The Ultimate Pitching Dream: We take a look at how the film sets up and executes one of the greatest feats in all of sports, A Perfect Game. Does the film show its cards too early in the build-up? Is Billy throwing a perfect game in his final game, too much of a happy ending? Baseball Authenticity: From the Dugout to the Diamond: We'll discuss how director Sam Raimi (yes, that Sam Raimi!) uses tight shots on the mound, the escalating pressure in the dugout, and the growing excitement of the crowd to build suspense. From the pitching mechanics to the dugout banter, the film attempts to capture the feel of a real game. We'll take a look at how they made a believable major league game, the choreography of the plays, and the overall atmosphere of the stadium.Detroit Sports Talk: The story of Billy's perfect game brings back horrible memories for Dylan of a real-life near-perfect game for the Tigers.

Geoff sure did like 2002's Spider-Man from Sam Raimi. Then came 2004 and Spider-Man 2, and it is still, decades later, one of his favorite comic movies ever.

Kulap Vilaysack (Add To Cart) joins Jason, June and Paul to break down Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3 starring Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst. The four discuss how the movie is mostly about Mary Jane's failed Broadway career, all the bad CGI, Peter Parker basically becoming Austin Powers, and how there are simply too many villains.
