Disappointing, but one major stand-out
1 May 2020
Found this disappointing, out of the 5 segments, only two are good, and only one is truly great.

The other 3 I found extremely sub-par, lazy writing and just generally uninspired. One is slasher bit with a twist, one is about religion, another is about death and afterlife....none of these 3 were very good.

I did very much like the one where the woman goes to get her facial scar removed - this was the second short film and was a really cool sort of old school 'body horror' piece.

And I absolutely LOVED the black and white fourth segment, it was actually superb and very like something you would see in Black Mirror. It's dark, unsettling, creepy, compelling, with superb acting.

That segment is completely in a league of its own and I would almost say is kinda too good considering the rest of the movie isn't of similar quality. I would have easily watched an hour or even feature length of it.

Overall this collection is worth a watch considering 2 out of the 5 segments are quite good.
