""I still can't take them,""
""I'm a very weak subject for them... I'm like the coward kid that likes to scare others, but is actually terrified himself.""
""I love both movies. They're both obviously classics and brilliant,""
""But I made it a point to not only not watch them again, but when I recognized similarities, to try and take the other path. I didn't really like working that way, but they're such great classics that I had no choice.""
Sam Raimi returns to horror-comedy with Send Help, reuniting with Rachel McAdams. The plot follows Linda Liddle, a once-mocked corporate employee whose expert survival skills become indispensable after a plane crash strands her and boss Bradley Preston on an uncharted island in the Gulf of Thailand. The narrative flips power dynamics as the subordinate gains control over the situation. Raimi deliberately avoided rewatching classic survival films and pursued a different creative path. The art department developed a distinct approach to staging and filming the plane crash to differentiate the film from similar desert-island stories.
