Mike Haberfelner

In a library, a student (Corey Schuler) finds a hand-written journal chronicling four stories of horror:

• Boo Men: A guy (Danny Costa) thinks he is pursued by masked men. His psychiatrist (Timmy Jordan) thinks nothing much of it - until the guy kills his father (Rich Bolen), believing him to be one of "them".
• Full Moonlighting: Colin (Doug Matthews) has just returned from Europe, only to find out that he's a werewolf now. He breaks up with his girlfriend Jen (Katie Harris) in order to protect her from harm ... not knowing of course she's a werewolf as well.
• Skeleton Keys: Sarah (Jen Saraullo) and John (Sean Quinn) spend a night in her deceased aunt's (Christina Jorro) house, only to find out more about her than is good for them - like that she was haunted by the ghost of her mother, a ghost that's still present in the house even now ...
• Suckers: Brian (Dan Vidor) and Kevin (Joe Bahar) decide to close up their movietheatre for good with a vampire movie marathon - only to find out that vampires are very real, and they have found abode in a room behind the big screen.

Back in the library: The student finds the next page of the journal empty - but the masked maniac behind him sees to it that it will be filled shortly.

Independent low budget horror anthology that does exactly nothing to reinvent the genre as such - but that said, director Chris LaMartina shows a sure hand in both creating atmosphere and storytelling. So if you don't expect any real revelations and are content with competent genre fare, you might want to check this one out.
