Viewing Notes
Was happy to see this on Amazon Instant not realizing it was a previous HMN entry (until I added it here). Also didn’t realize this was an anthology but was pleased nevertheless. I really like the framing w/the college prof teaching a class on fear then proceeding to share scary stories to freak out his students. Each is pretty great until it reaches the final tale at the end which doesn’t make much sense. Pretty fun flick. Love the killer dogs and old dark house segments the most.
