Sam Raimi’s star Vehicle
When thinking of stars who appear in a Sam Raimi film, Bruce Campbell is the first name to come to mind. What people don’t realize is that Sam Raimi’s star vehicle is a 1973 Delta 88 Oldsmobile. The car was first seen way back in Evil Dead driven by Ash. In fact the car in the movie is actually Sam Raimi’s own car; and has appeared in every one of Sam Raimi’s feature films to date.
The car is actually a popular model for Hollywood film and has appeared in everything from The A-Team to Breathless, Meatballs. Ghostbusters, Lethal Weapon, Omega Man, Deadpool and hundreds of other classic movies.

Well…y’know…except for ‘Quick and the Dead’.
They’ve joked about it still being in there, but I’ve never spotted any proof of it. Seeing as the film took place before cars existed.
Yeah I am pretty sure it is in there somewhere – I need to watch it agian. Wait no I don`t.
They used the chassis for a wagon in Quick and the Dead
But of course!
And now in “Drag Me to Hell” too!
