* CreatorBacklash:
** He seems to agree with the consensus that ''Film/SpiderMan3'' was the worst of the trilogy.
** After ''Film/TheQuickAndTheDead'' flopped, Raimi admitted that he was "confused" and thought himself to be a "dinosaur".

'''Samuel Marshall Raimi''' (born October 23, 1959) 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 ''Franchise/EvilDead'', he also gained a greater level of fame for [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy directing a trilogy of movies]] based on the long-running ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' comic books.
