An anthology that pretty much has something for every genre fan, as it ranges from reality-bound psycho-horror to ghosts and possession, varying in tone from the genuinely terrifying to the darkly humourous, and covering the field from psychological to visceral horror over the course of its run. But what all the segments have in common, they're well-crafted by a genre-savvy hand, the individual casts are all strong, and the stories told are engaging, making this into a pretty cool collection of horror entertainment.
