8/10
Nifty horror anthology
20 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Goth hostess the Temptress (nicely played with saucy aplomb by Hannah Fierman) introduces a series of horror stories on a public access television channel on Halloween night.

First yarn, "Hellevangelist" - A seemingly harmless little old lady pays a huckster TV preacher a lethal visit. Bloody satisfying with a perfectly twisted pay-off.

Second anecdote, "Jasper" - A killer cartoon cat (voiced with zest by Bill Moseley) goes on a murderous spree. A total hoot.

Third tale, "Clean UR Room" - A teenage slob left home alone gets terrorized by a funky laundry monster. Yet another total hoot.

Fourth outing, "Heroes of Time" - A virtual reality game becomes dangerously real. Cleverly done.

Fifth and final vignette, "GutCruncher" - Three wimpy teens are forced by their sadistic gym teacher to fight a fierce demon in a wrestling ring. Silly, but amusing.

Moreover, there are assorted humorous mock TV commercials interspersed throughout the broadcast, with a vampire running for public office advert and a hysterically warped spot for mailing a bag of certain male parts to your enemies rating as the definite gut-busting highlights. Popping up in small roles are erstwhile softcore starlet Erin Brown (a.k.a. Misty Mundae), Kane Hodder (who sends himself up something rotten), Linnea Quigley, and the ever-obnoxious Chris Gore (he gets cut in half). An enjoyable omnibus outing.
