I thought it was okay
It's no 10, but it deserves higher than a 4.6.
Son, you got a panty on your head.share
I agree, I liked it as well and thought it deserved at least a 6.

I watched the first two stories. Couldn't make myself watch the third. It is rare that I give up.

I didn't come in here and I'm not leaving now.
It deserves less IMO. I only liked the second story but it was mostly because I found it hilarious. The first one had potential but it was wasted. The third one was boring.
Esta es mi firma
This was more of a slightly creepy drama than a horror movie. It was kind of dull.
he thing that makes anthologies great is a pay off for each story. The pay offs for these stories were just blah. After watching I thought "So what?' rather than "WTF!".
It was as suspenseful as a lifetime Channel made for TV movie.
This was just dreadful. No suspense..vague, confusing and/or ambiguous denouement in every case. This was a similar idea to the much better 1972 portmanteau film 'Asylum'(in which the new head of an insane Asylum interviews several inmates all of whom have weird/horrifying back stories as to how they got there and the new guy has to work out which one of these inmates is his predecessor. In that each one had a great twist or horror ending. This pile of poorly written crap was simply a waste of 108 minutes I'm never going to get back...
share[email protected] I guess you are easily confused and don't know how what suspense is. While this may not have been anything close to a great movie people please don't listen to [email protected] as obviously he didn't see the same movie I saw. I feel that this movie did a good job of trying to get us into the minds of the mentally ill without giving the whole story away and not letting us think about certain things. As for suspense there clearly was huge suspense in the last part of story 2 and with story 3 it was a real wild trip as you didn't know what was and wasn't reality. Yes I did have an idea in story 3 that he already was where he ended up but it still was a fun ride through the story.
shareI'm agree with you. That's why I gave it a 6/10. I watched it in French on YouTube last night and the image resolution wasn't good. But I watched it all to the end... Painfully. I felt like shooting myself like Gustav at the end. But despite all this, I found it OK, but it could have been better. There was something missing in this movie, but I can't identify it. I think it had something to do with the rhythm and the music. And you ? What do you think ?
shareRedhawkof2008 I think there was enough to like about the film as it was made to get us in the minds of the mentally ill. It definitely had suspenseful moments and has me wondering at times what was reality and what wasn't. It also didn't give the whole story because it wanted us to think. The movie did it's job. I am happy to have seen it. As for a rating out of 10 there are periods of times where I just hate handing out ratings and other times I can do it and really lately I think giving scores is tough. All I can say is that this movie is worth watching if you want to use that head on your shoulders for something useful.
