Andy the Arsonist (Cory Jacob) invites us to his private theatre of the macabre, where he tells us five tales of terror:

• Lust for Blood: A fortune teller (Kim Phillips) tells her young customer (Shawn C. Phillips) that he will turn into a homicidal monster before too long ... not knowing of course that he will turn into this homicidal monster right then and there ...
• Bad Dennis: Four teens (Nino Borzoni, Sasha Morgan, Joy Miller, Quinn Miller) go on a camping trip to the country - but their trip just happens to coincide with a local legend coming to life - in a deadly way.
• Speak Easy: A guy (Jon Bloch) has slept with his best friend's (JD Fairman) girlfriend. Most of this segment depicts how their conversation the next day should have been - level-headed. Instead of course, it was bloody murder.
• Doll Parts: Rebecca (Angie Keeling) thinks it's a good idea to give abode to Travis (Sean Kasky), a suspected but never convicted serialkiller, mainly because this way she can make him do her bidding (her killing that is). To keep him from killing her, she has her boyfriend Jacob (Dustin Ferguson) for protection - or so she thinks, because behind her back, Travis and Jacob are lovers ...
• Cannibal Blood Girl: A gang of rapists (Brian Redban, Kevin E. Scott, Doug Waugh) think it's a brilliant idea to bring a couple of girls (Veronica Ricci, Ivy Pemberton) to a back alley where only a year ago, a pornstar (Sophie Dee) was brutally raped and murdered. To bad then that the pornstar, in all her naked glory, has decided to come back this very day, to kill, mutilate and partly devour whoever she finds at the scene of the crime ...

Theatre of the Deranged is a fun trip to contemporary indie horror, presenting the audience with five shorts that include everything from psychodrama to trash horror, from psychological horror to gore fest, from monster movie to slasher, from gross-out horror to broad humour. And while these films are so diverse in style and approach that it's almost a certainty that not all of them will be your cup of tea, this film is an excellent document that at least in the indie scene, horror is still alive and kicking - and kicking strongly.

A must-have for every self-respecting horror fan.
