Viewing Notes

via Netflix

In this audacious anthology film, 26 masters of horror work their way down the alphabet with terrifying, humorous and poignant tales about death.  There were a number of interesting segments.  There were a lot more than didn’t do much for me at all.  I only watched this as I was going to go through ABCs of Death 2 to get it off my pull list, but I might end up waiting awhile.
