Viewing Notes
A glowing orb terrorizes a young girl with a collection of stories of dark fantasy, eroticism, sci-fi and horror. I remember seeing the preview for this one off of Cinemax back in my teens. They were showing it late night and I only saw two clips of it and had to get a look, so I set my VCR. I’ve had a copy of this in some shape or form ever since. This has not aged particularly well, the stories are extremely loosely based off ones that actually appeared in the Heavy Metal magazine. Probably one of the best things about this film is the soundtrack which is still fantastic. This isn’t one I’d recommend to anyone as most people are probably going to hate it, but it’s one that I manage to watch at least once a year.
