Featured review
Usual Mixed Bag
Collections of shorts by different directors can vary wildly but this is relatively even. Stories about a chupacabra and two school meal cooks are probably the weakest, the latter out staying its welcome to drag out a predictable twist.
A story of an inanimate object coming to life is fun, and should appeal to anyone who enjoyed Rubber (2010) as the two have a similar feel. Another sketch is reminiscent of Pick of Destiny (2006), while others have the feel of American Werewolf in London (1981) and Life After Beth (2014) or Nina Forever (2015).
That's it, in a nutshell. Nothing particularly innovative, but fun to tick along with. The first and last sketches are my favourites but I felt the film could have been better with a connecting thread, like a crypt keeper, a summer camp counsellor or deranged psychiatrist to smooth the transitions. Even just a Twilight Zone (1983) twist to link those bookend stories.
