Viewing Notes
First “movie” in my 31 in 31 horror challenge for October. Not a movie but a collection of short films which I believe were compiled from a TV show. A few are interesting but mostly unsatisfying as each short feels like a chapter in a larger story that we’re only left to guess how it’s resolved. Essentially a collection of teasers of potentially longer movies. All of the shorts deal with some type of supernatural element with genuine creepiness. Then they end. Really odd format. I wanted to see more.
