Well, to make a long story short, Sam Raimi is Jewish!

Since Sam Raimi's mother is Jewish, and in Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism, those with a Jewish mother (or those who underwent a halakhic conversion) are considered Jewish, then that makes him Jewish. His father is Jewish too.

Sam Raimi (whose full birth name is Samuel M Raimi) was born on October 23, 1959 in Royal Oak, Michigan, U.S..

He is famous for directing the cult horror comedy ''Evil Dead'' series, the superhero film Darkman, the Spider-Man trilogy, and Oz the Great and Powerful.
