The idea of this film is actually pretty interesting. With short horror, almost vignettes, from all around the world and culture specific tales and creatures. But that's about all that ended up good here. All the short stories were not scary in the least. With most being weird or gross at best. It was as if it was a bad art film combined with a bad horror film. It is very "artistic" interesting direction of the scenes and acting, but at the same time the acting is terrible and like a film school project while having slightly above the worst special effects. The film will really test your patience. Some of the stories really made me want to fast forward through parts of them and i needed to begrudgingly check a few times how much longer was left in the film. As an anthology, I felt that there were either too many stories in general or possibly it could have been split into multiple films, like other anthologies. Overall I think that the idea was interesting, but it went way too far into the artsy imaginative type of role and wasn't able to secure the horror it set out for, nor even the general interest from people looking for something to watch.
