There's something a little more traditional in Drag's concept though, centering things around a literal old gypsy's curse but once it gets going it gets as crazy and enthusiastically insane as the ED films, and that's the heart of what we were all asking for anyway, isn't it? In fact, some will argue that it could be considered a direct sequel, operating in the same world and mythos (and one demonically possessed character, about midway through the film, is straight-up doing the entire Evil Dead schtick), just not in name and not focusing on Bruce Campbell's character this time around. And while he didn't quite come up with the Evil Dead 4 fans kept asking for, he gave us something very much in the same spirit. Fans had been calling for him to return to his roots for ages, and by all accounts Raimi was having the same feelings. Drag Me To Hell is Sam Raimi's return to horror, as well as a return to smaller films he has more creative control of, after having worked on a bunch of more traditional Hollywood films, particularly the Spider-Man trilogy.
