    Tales Of The Uncanny – Movie Review:

    This feature length documentary covering the history and importance of the horror anthology picture actually started out as a bonus feature intended to have been included with the Blu-ray release of The Theatre Bizarre but various Covid-19 lockdowns put into place around the world changed all of that. Soon enough, a series of Zoom-recorded interviews and discussions conducted for that featurette took on a life of their own, and director David Gregory found himself with enough material to put together a lengthier, more expansive piece than he originally intended.

    The finished product covers a lot of ground, digging pretty deeply     ...

    The Theatre Bizarre – Movie Review:

    Inspired by the French ‘Grand Guignol’ Theatre popular in that country from the late 1800’s through to the mid-1900s, The Theatre Bizarre is an anthology film made by some of the most interesting talent working outside of the horror mainstream today. A very different sort of horror anthology than most of the established classics of the format (the Amicus films come to mind, as does Creepshow), The Theatre Bizarre offers no morals or lessons as so many of the E.C. Comics inspired stories often did but instead goes right for the jugular, more interested in shocking you than in enlightening you.     ...
