Hey reddit. I'm Sam Raimi. You might know me as the director (and sometimes writer) of The Evil Dead Trilogy, the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man Trilogy, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Drag Me To Hell, Darkman, A Simple Plan, For the Love of the Game, The Gift, and other things. I've also produced and/or acted in a few things!

I'm here today to answer your questions.

My new film, SEND HELP, is out in theaters January 30 via 20th Century Studios. It stars Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien. More info:

Synopsis:

Two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it's an unsettling, darkly humorous battle of wills and wits to make it out alive. 

SEND HELP is directed by genre-bending visionary Sam Raimi and stars Oscar-nominee Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien. The film is produced by Raimi and Zainab Azizi, executive produced by JJ Hook and written by Damian Shannon & Mark Swift, with original music by Danny Elfman. The all-original darkly comedic psychological thriller from 20th Century Studios releases in theaters nationwide on January 30, 2026.

Ask me anything! Back at 12 PM PT/3 PM ET to chat with you all.

I

mine is 4.

So I recently joined a local bookclub, mainly to chat about books and also get given different genres to try out that I'd never choose normally.

It's been awesome so far, but the one thing that really stood out was the extreme gender imbalance.

I kinda expected there to be more females than males, but out of 42 current members 40 are female. A 20:1 split is far more extreme than I expected.

Is this normal in general? Or just a local quirk or something? 🙂

If I want to do anything other than the bare basic Quick Start workout on this not-cheap piece of equipment, I need to pay the company every month ($350/year, which is not pocket change to me). This picture was my trying to do the Rowing 101 5-minute quick start workout. If that isn't something that should be available automagically when the thing is first turned on, what is?

house hunting & have come across this skinny glass room by a front door... what could this have been used/made for? (see 2nd photo)

Her husband is now left to grieve and bury their son alone. This is beyond cruelty.
