Featured review
Poor storytelling
I'm sorry but I cannot agree with many of the reviews written here about the anthology. The stories are unvarying in structure and development, only in theme, and after a while this becomes predictable and tiring. For example, every segment has a dream-within-a-dream-that-may-not-be-a-dream sequence just to introduce ambiguity to story. So when something terrifying happens in the story, don't get too excited because the entire event may not have happened at all, but is just the wild imagination of a character. The third story, moreover, about two sisters vying for the hand of a wealthy who unknown to them is a cannibal, does not make much sense and the viewer is expected to just make a lot of assumptions to fill in the gaps. And in the last story, it is obvious that the ambulance is going deliberately slowly so that the zombies can catch up to it and wreak horror on its occupants because no way can a zombie run faster than an ambulance if the ambulance was traveling at vehicle's speed. All this reflects lazy storytelling with attention given only to what would scare/disgust the audience, not entertain the audience with a good narrative corresponding with horror. Good films, whatever the genre, should tell an effective story, without which the film is just relying on its affect. A roller-coaster ride would be more thrilling and worth it for that purpose.
