      Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Among the many horror anthology films that have appeared over the decades, this ranks as one of the most feeble. Rated: 1/4 Mar 19, 2024 Full Review Courtney Button Starburst It nips along at a fair pace, with a running time of only 83 minutes, but it never makes an impact. Rated: 5/10 Sep 5, 2018 Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat The twisted tales range from "pretty bad" to "mediocre." Rated: 1.5/4 Feb 27, 2017 Full Review Lucius Gore ESplatter All in all, this is a bad horror and bad comedy film. Rated: 1.5/4 Mar 24, 2009 Full Review Alex Sandell Juicy Cerebellum Sickly twisted in parts, but not worth a rental. Rated: 2/5 Oct 17, 2002 Full Review Scott Weinberg eFilmCritic.com Forgettable low-budget anthology schtick. Rated: 1.5/5 Jul 26, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member "Thats not the way mommy tells it!" In this horror-comedy anthology the framing story is an uncle telling stories to a young boy who can't sleep (kind of like "Princess Bride"). The tales he tells are overly violent and sexual yet childish, cartoonish and goofy. In fact, the whole thing is very uneven, almost as if it were filmed at different times by different people. The middle story lampooning Little Red Riding Hood was my favourite, with the other two being just too strange. Not sure the target audience it wasn't very funny or very scary. The woman playing Goldi Locks was perfect for her roll! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Mildly funny. Uncle Mike is the worst uncle ever. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Yeah... it's pretty bad. I'd say stay away unless you have a deep nostalgic connection to it. It's better left in the past, as a fun memory. The only decent segment is the original story... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Some little jokes with these twisted fairy tales, but overall it isn't funny and not well done at all. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Just twisted and stupid enough to be entertaining. For hardcore 80's fans only. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A very disappointing and terrible low budget horror movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
