I "liked" two out of twenty-six segments. Each director went for the absurd approach, I suppose because they felt they couldn't do anything truly disturbing with 5k and six minutes. Instead of digging deep to produce segments that dissect death and the many tragedies that lead up to it, most went for comedy over drama. The two segments I "liked" were D is for Dogfight and X is for XXL. I only say I "liked" them because they actually unsettled me, and that's what horror is supposed to do. I truly couldn't believe these were professionals at the helms of these movies. I've seen better amateur shorts on Youtube, and most of those were terrifying in under three minutes with nonexistent budgets. Highly disappointed.
