Offers the kind of variety and creative opportunities that help paper over the movie's weaker narrative aspects.

"you'll be terrified -- that you wasted your time"

hanks to casting that is savvier than the horror norm, and to direction by John Harrison that is workmanlike and sometimes even witty, at least it's fun.

Top CriticA Creepshow ripoff that wallows in the fact.

This is just another miss along the lines of Creepshow and Twilight Zone: The Movie.

Not nearly as cool as Creepshow, but a lot better than...Campfire Tales? Deadtime stories? Tales from the Hood? Creepshow 2? See, there just aren't enough cool horror anthologies out there.
