poor spelling is worse than poor grammar in my opinion.
not that there is an excuse for either.

I watched a lot of sport - F1 and tennis mainly. And the Apprentice. thought Kate should have won. Saw people, got drunk, cried over my bank balance and then got more drunk.

being as it was Raimi film. As I posted below I really enjoyed it, just the right balance of humour and scaryness.

It relied a lot on cheap scares, but in the context it worked.
And the goats too. Nicely done.

It's a film about a gypsy cursing someone to be dragged to hell by a goat demon, it's not going to realistic. What Raimi did really well was ratcheting up the tension using just noises and good camera shots so that when something happened, even if it was just shadows, that made it really shocking as the tension got released.
Admittedly the bit in the shed was quite ridiculous, although you could argue it was a dream sequence, but it was so funny that I didn't mind.
The talking goat though, brilliant.

I think that he relied pretty heavily on "making you jump" rather than "scaring the shit out of you", but that's a good thing, in my opinion.
The ending was great, and on the whole it made me laugh, lots.
Especially the cat-bit.
And the fight in the car.
I was very much entertained.

but there was no screaming. I didn't even grab Clendrix, which may have been a missed opportunity.

Next time I see her I will grab her extra hard to make up for this.
