Moving unlikely claim[edit]

Moving this here from the article:

The 2009 film Drag Me to Hell is a looser adaption of this story, though is not credited to James' source story.^[1]

The cited source does not support the claim that this film is a loose or any other kind of adaptation; neither James nor his story are even mentioned (Night of the Demon is mentioned, but only in describing the physical appearance of ths film's demon, and not to suggest that this film is based on/derived from that one). The claim is extremely tenuous, and if the claim is allowed to remain, then we must allow all films and novels involving some sort of revenge curse (Stephen King's Thinner, Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, Cat People, The Wolf Man, etc., etc., etc., etc.) at which point we invite a cruft dump larger than the rest of the article. 12.233.147.42 (talk) 23:02, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
