This One gets my vote for "WORST HORROR MOVIE EVER MADE" - the Amazon product details are are outright lies, as there IS no horror, sex, chills or or even one coherent storyline in ANY of the 9 fabrications that we`re subjected to here. I love a good horror film, I love a good 'bad' horror film, I even have high tolerance for a outright lousy horror film, and this one charts lower than THAT. Shot on video, the picture quality is wretched, the acting like that of a high-school play, the dialogue buffoonish and laughable, not one imaginative camera shot or angle, not one story developed beyond a rough draft, and not one charactor believable, likeable or able to hold your interest. My wife kept looking at me throughout, asking "You paid money for this torture?". AND it`s a dvd-r burn to boot, which SHOULD be listed in the product details(shame on you Amazon!). The other 2 reviewers are either severely mentally challenged or on the producer`s payroll... folks, don`t waste your time or hard-earned cash on this nonsense (in the truest sense of the word), leave this Vault closed as there is nothing of value inside.

My title for the review says it all....... my copy was broken when I ordered it so I have to be thankful for that because I could return it. I AM sorry I found someone who had one for me to borrow - yes, they WARNED me this was possibly THE WORST "THING" EVER MADE (I cannot stress that line ENOUGH)..... no acting, sound, picture quality AT ALL. Geez, I can't spend the time it would take for me to type all the BAD things I want to say about this so in short, HA HA HA..... joke will be on you for wasting your money if you purchase this.

This is NOT a movie or Movies. They are really bad excuses for space. I thought this was going to be a collection of movies or at least something worth watching.. It seemed that it was clips of some bad movies. JUST CLIPS! Ridiculous!

Starting off with an effort to replicate the grindhouse use of "coming attractions," complete with grainy, scratched film, we expect the cheesiness to continue as the feature is not one, but nine separate horror shorts.

I am sure everyone will find their favorites in the collection, but I was particularly impressed by "Alone" with Mandy Amano as a sorority girl alone in the house with a killer on the loose. The sets and costuming were excellent and really gave a 50s feel to the story. It had a nice twist at the end.

"Mental Distortion" with Kim Sønderholm, who also wrote and directed this short, as well as the first one shown (When John Met Julia) stars with Maja Muhlack and the voluptuous Danish model Barbara Zatler who've by the way just signed a contract to be a Playmate for Playboy. The story is really open to multiple interpretations, and I am sure each viewer will have their own.

"Disconnected" is the story of bloody brutality, but it is the twist that will have your mouth dropping open - totally unexpected.

Those are my three favorites, but the other six shorts are just as interesting and others are left to find theirs.

I've seen both of these films and they are amazing. Scary, sexy and funny short film that will keep you glued to your seat. Glad to see that they've combined the two films on to one DVD...
