Reasonable horror anthology


Dan Curtis anthology horror movie, in three segments. Ed Begley Jr restores a 1920s car and finds himself transported back in time; Patrick Macnee attempts to deal with his wife's fear that she's the victim of a vampire; and Joan Hackett tries to bring her drowned son back from the dead. The last is the best, very atmospheric; it starts out with a 'Monkey's Paw' feel to it, but ends up more along the lines of Pet Sematary. Not bad, although far from Curtis's best. 6.5/10
