10 Best Horror Movies About Hell

6. Drag Me To Hell

With a title like that, you know this movie was going to make it onto this list. But, while the title, look and advertisement of this flick had you thinking you'd be walking into a pure nightmare-inducing time, the quirky nature of Sam Raimi helped to chuck in some hilarious and fun moments amidst the horror.

Drag Me To Hell follows a loan officer named Christine, who turns down an older woman for a loan and subsequently finds herself cursed to be damned to Hell. She attempts to save her soul, all while dealing with a ton of terrifying encounters and evil forces.

As this film came from the mind of the man behind the Evil Dead series, it's full of goofiness as well as horror. You get to see sights like a talking possessed goat, gross-out moments, and an overall campiness that makes watching it a blast.

However, the sillier aspects don't negate the horror of the flick, as Christine's inevitable descent to the fiery depths below fills you with anxiety. Plus, the constant demonic presence and horrifying imagery are likely to keep you from blaspheming whilst watching.
