01. Sam Raimi - Part 1

For this, our inaugral episode, we are starting as we mean to go on! This month we tackle an iconic filmmaker with a filmography that spans 5 decades. After bursting onto the scene as a plucky, funny, gore-obsessed film fan shooting movies with his friends on an 8mm camera, this director has stepped far beyond being simply a splashy horror auteur with a string of 15 feature films across numerous genres including horror, comedy, fantasy, drama, westerns, superhero, action and soppy baseball movies...I am, of course, talking about the iconic filmmaker (and Bruce Campbell best friend) Sam Raimi. Raimi expands his impressive portfolio to 16 feature films in 2026 with the arrival of his latest film 'Send Help', relaessing in Irish theatres on February 5th. To keep up to date with this and other releases across 2026, be sure to check out FilminDublin.ie. ---------------------The Complete Picture is a podcast for film completionists - seasoned obsessives and curious newcomers alike.
