4 friends take turns telling ghost stories before approaching a mirror to blow out the candle. They have to do this 100 times. Fortunately, we only have to endure 8 of them. Go to Full Review

100 Candles will probably spawn some good stories if fleshed out further, but as it is now the audience may have preferred something more unique. Go to Full Review

It's a crying shame that this good work has been so clumsily packaged. Go to Full Review

Al R Feb 14 Tolerated this movie until the story of the girl in the casket. What the hell was the deal of language change? I don't speak spanish nor will I ever learn it. If an American movie is going to tell a story in another language, at least have subtitles so we can understand the story. Thumbs down to the wroters of this mess!!!! Not worth the watch See more Charles M 07/20/2024 It was hard to watch. I had to turn it off with the last twenty minutes to go down, and that’s only cause I was watching it with my partner. She thought it was alright. See more 04/07/2022 O filme é ok. Tem umas reviravoltas bem razoáveis, mas a grande reviravolta do final foi mal aproveitada. Porém deu pra passar o tempo. See more 07/02/2021 This movie is not bad. It is one of those campfire storytelling movie. It's a horror plus thriller combo. I love each of the short stories:- so many varieties of scare tactics, plot twists, surprise endings and very easy to understand. Not too suitable for kids though; lots of foul languages. See more Jerod S @jeroduptown 06/25/2021 I'm down with a collection of horror stories - but this one is a wee bit boring. The mini tales were predictable for the most part, as was the ending of the short stories. See more 05/29/2021 The game of 100 Candles has trapped a group of friends, who find themselves forced to tell one another horror stories in front of a magical mirror. One story must be shared for every candle and the group cant't leave until all of the candles have been extinguished. If they do, they will fall to a witch's curse. 100 Candles uses this storytelling engine to enter into the anthology conceit while taking content from several other shorts, including The Visitant, Blight, When Demons Die, Black Eyed Child and A Little Taste. No, there are not a hundred stories in this movie. Of these stories, The VIsitant has the most star power, as it features Amy Smart (The Butterfly Effect, Road Trip) as a mother trying to protect her children from a demon played by Doug Jones. It was directed by Nicholas Peterson, who has made several music videos for bands like Bad Wolves, Sixx AM and Five Finger Death Punch. Buried Alive has one of my most fearful themes. Obviously, it's being buried alive, but since this story is all in Spanish, it loses some of its power with Western audiences. As usual with anthologies, not every story works, but those that do are pretty powerful. The framing sequence is well-filmed and sets things up quite well. Of the modern portmanteaus that have been released, this is one of the better I've seen. See more Read all reviews
