Revealing mistake: When Christine is looking at the obituaries in the café, one of them is for Fredericka S. Freund. However, once you get past the first paragraph the obituary seems to be for Dr. Mary Allen Engle (nee English). Also, they forgot to put "Dr." before Freund's name. It may not be a coincidence that the Property Master for the movie is named Ellen Freund. (01:25:00)
Drag Me To Hell (2009)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Sam Raimi
Starring: Justin Long, Alison Lohman, Lorna Raver, Ruth Livier
Christine (Alison Lohman) and Rham Jas (Dileep Rao) defeat the demon for a night, but he warns her that it will return in the morning to take her to Hell. The only way to stop the curse is to give the cursed button to someone else. She puts it in an envelope and tries to give it to Stu (Reggie Lee) but her conscience stops her. She decides to go to Mrs. Ganush's grave and give it to her. She stuffs the envelope in the body's mouth. The next morning she showers and goes to meet Clay (Justin Long) at the train station platform. He pulls the button out of his pocket, and Christina realizes in horror that she accidentally switched envelopes when they were in the car, and she left his coin in Mrs. Ganush's mouth. As she backs away from the button in terror, she falls backwards onto the train tracks. Clay tries to help her onto the platform as a train speeds toward her, but as he does the ground starts to crack and burn below her. As the train passes over her and stops his hand from reaching her, hands reach out and pull her through the ground. Clay can only watch in horror as her flesh burns away, and she is dragged down to Hell. The hole in the ground closes.

Christine Brown: I beat you, you old bitch!
Trivia: Long time friend of Sam Raimi, and star of his "Evil Dead" trilogy, Bruce Campbell was approached for a role in this film, but had to turn it down due to a time conflict with his television show "Burn Notice."
Question: Christine needs $10,000 for a dangerous seance, so she goes to the shed to gather up some items to pawn, whereupon she again encounters Lamia (as Mrs. Ganush). Christine uses her ice skate to slash a rope that conveniently drops a 100-lb blacksmith's anvil on the demon's head. After the demon vanishes, the anvil, rope and chain are seen on the floor where they fell, so it wasn't just a fantasy sequence. Why does petite little Christine Brown (or anybody, for that matter) have a 100-lb blacksmith's anvil suspended 8 feet in the air with rope and chain out in the shed?

Answer: Because it's a film and Sam Raimi obviously thought it was funny. But I did also wonder.
