I watch a lot of indie films, I love finding a new one from a director at a convention and that's where I picked this one up.
I watched each segment and treated them as separate films, this was wise as there isn't really a link to them, not that that was an issue but I think perhaps this should have been 2 volumes with a linking narrative .
That being said it didn't feel as long as it was. Each segment was directed by a diferent director and it shows as they all had a diferent style, some obviously more skilled than others but again this was low budget.
My favourite segment was Monster, a familiar face in the cast and the acting above par compared to the others, lighting and camera was also better in this story, it was gory and the fx were great.
My next favourite was Snow, a dark version of Snow White, this segment I wish had been longer as I quite liked it but felt the characters needed a bit more development.
The other stories were very hit and miss, the gore wasn't quite as gory as I would have expected. Saying it was unrated as well made me expect more.
Nevertheless, given the option to just watch a single story at a time I think this anthology has some rewatchability and I'm glad to have it in my collection.
Lots of violence towards women, some uneasy to watch scenes and of the no to low budget stuff that is out there this is not bad, a lot better than some but worse than others.
If you find it, check it out, but from the filmmakers directly, it's on Etsy, don't buy the overpriced ones on eBay from people blatantly trying to exploit the rarity of this what I guess was a very limited self release.
