Hail to the king, baby.
Sam Raimi has the distinct honor of being one of the few director/producers in existence that can actually make films that are campy AND scary at the same time and have them come off as excellent pieces of film. Known mostly for his cult series
Evil Dead, he also gained some notoriety for directing a trilogy based on some obscure comic series known as
Spider-Man.
Raimi is also no stranger to television as well, as he executive produced the syndicated shows
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and
Xena: Warrior Princess (and, currently, an executive producer on
Legend of the Seeker and
Spartacus: Blood and Sand). Early on in his career, he was a frequent collaborator with
The Coen Brothers: Joel was an assistant editor on
The Evil Dead, the three of them wrote
Crimewave and
The Hudsucker Proxy together, Raimi had cameo apperances in
Miller's Crossing and
Hudsucker, and finally (whew) Raimi directed a montage sequence in the latter.
