Watched this anthology film last night and if you haven't seen it I'd definitely recommend it. It's set sometime in the 80s and the segments span the 50s-70s, so modern tech like cell phones, internet, etc. don't feature which actually makes the film feel refreshing. It's got excellent atmosphere and asthetically it's like if Tim Burton and Guillermo Del Toro collaborated together. The wraparound is very entertaining, in no small part due to the always good Clancy Brown as the undertaker and the twist by the end of it all honestly took me by surprise and I was surprised they went the route they did. As for the segments themselves, the first is entertaining but too short and feels like filler, the second is rather lame with the forced social commentary but the latter two are thankfully much better and help to salvage it all. There's a definite TFTC/EC Comics flare to it all and if you enjoy anthology Horror this definitely comes recommended. I blind bought it at Best Buy just recently and I must say I don't regret it.
