Short Review

Considering the movie features performances by actors such as Malcom McDowell and Lou Diamond Phillips, it's painfully average. The setting was interesting, but underutilized considering the potential. The shorts were okay, but felt they could been underdeveloped episodes of 90s horror television series rather than a theatrical production. As well as they all feature unoriginal themes such as puppets, a boy and his monster, and alien conspiracy. Effects are also sparse despite decent film quality. Could have been a lot better.
