After the success of THE EVIL DEAD, Sam Raimi and his Michigan Mafia were given the chance to work on their first "Hollywood" film. Working from a script co-written by the Coen Brothers, the resulting film, CRIMEWAVE, was hindered by studio interference and remains the one film in his career that Sam Raimi has all but disowned.

This is the story of the making — and un-making — of CRIMEWAVE.

Theme Song: "There's Still a Little Bit of Time, If We Hurry and I Mean Hurry" by Slasher Film Festival Strategy.

This episode was written, produced and edited by Gary Horne, Justin Bishop, and Todd A. Davis.
