This review may contain mild spoilers, but nothing that would do significant harm. Timo Tjahjanto stole the show again! I want to see a "Mortal Kombat" Special Mode with Tjahjanto with a chainsaw vs Flanagan with a bible and a cross! I'm satisfied. The first segment called Storm Drain will please fans of The Tunnel and The Blair Witch Project type of horror. It's about a reporter trying to do a story on a mysterious creature and goes to do some research into a really nasty and dark sewer, but nothing nice awaits her there. The cinematography is rubbish and the grainy image doesn't add much to it, but the atmosphere is very decent, there is one scare, the look of the monster is solid and there is an unexpected ritual with an interesting twist – 70%. The second segment called Empty Wake takes place in a funeral home, where nothing interesting happens for the first half, but then comes a decently atmospheric inferno. An open casket, a storm, a creepy setting and a dead man with half his head gone. Brr... 70%. The third segment is The Subject, a clear winner. Tjahjanto outdoes himself once again and made a sort of cross between “Bioshock”, Silent Hill, The Raid and Frankenstein, and it's a perfectly twisted gore Fest that's half an hour long and I wished it would never end. This is the only short story that also has good cinematography. It’s about a mad scientist who crosses people with mechanics in his basement and produces really scary creations. Of course, a SWAT team gets in there and they all have a wonderful fight, so much so that blood and limbs fly everywhere. Hell of a gore fest. Yes, this is what I've been waiting for all year. Thanks man. 100%. The fourth segment is Terror, a pretty boring and cheaply made story, but with a great finale. Good monster and decent gore. 60% The fifth segment is Holy Hell. It’s an odd short story as it always starts with a segment before another short story, so it's a bit inconsistent, but there was some nice gore here. 50%. Some people probably won't enjoy this, it's a bit unrewarding to watch because of the distracting camera, I had fun though and the Subject totally blew me away. Story 3/5, Action 4/5, Humor 0/5, Violence 5/5, Fun 4/5 Music 3/5, Visuals 3/5, Atmosphere 4/5, Suspense 3/5, Emotion 1/5, Actors 2/5. 7.5/10.
