Sam Raimi's Oldsmobile

The Oldsmobile in Drag Me to Hell

  You probably heard of director trademarks. If you don't know what they are I'll explain. A director trademark is something that is featured in all of their films in some way. All directors have them and Sam Raimi is no exception. One of his many Trademarks in his films is his beige 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 sedan. It first appeared in The Evil Dead as Ash Williams car, and in Darkman and Crimewave and Evil Dead 2 and in modified appearance, Army of Darkness as the Deathcoaster. It is also in his western, The Quick and the Dead, not as a car, but disguised as a wagon. I don't know where it is exactly but Sam Raimi will never tell us neither will Bruce Campbell either. Also The car played the role as Aunt May's car in the Spider-Man trilogy. If there ever was an Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement for an Automobile, this car would certainly win it.
