5.0 out of 5 stars Very Scary Movie with one outstanding story., April 29, 2002

By	Daisy Randone (Chicago's North Side (Edgewater)) - See all my reviews

This review is from: After Midnight [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is one of those with four different stories connected by stories being told by a group of people. They all manage to be frightening, especially the one about the teenage girls and the very last on with miss CSI herself, I warn you to lock your doors and leave the light on.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun, but not good, December 29, 2005

By	PolarisDiB "dibness" (Southwest, USA) - See all my reviews

In the vein of stuff like Creepshow and the like comes a movie about a strange college professor (Ramy Zada), who attempts to provide to his students the most intimate understanding of fear by scaring them as much as he can.

So they go to his house and tell typical urban legends complete with women in distress, creepy phone calls, empty gas stations, and yes, a flat tire in front of a scary mansion. Well, it started all right.

The three stories are overarched by the story of the students in the professor's house, one that has its own sort of horror conceits coming in towards the end. In typical 80s b-movie bonanza, it's just a dream. So honestly, if you're looking for something--I don't know--compelling? you won't find it here. This is just something to have around for, like, television fright night specials or Halloween ghoulies for preteens.

Which is too bad, because the beginning of this movie points out something very important, something that I wish horror film makers would realize to a stronger degree and utilize correctly: fear is a profound psychological effect, and in a way, it's important to feel strong levels of fear to understand yourself more, how you function and who you are. Too bad horror movies then just throw all that stuff away for cheap skeleton effects, bugs, and cat-out-of-the-bag gags.

Oh well.

3.0 out of 5 stars "Trilogy of Terror Part 3", March 8, 2007

By	Kristina M. Jaworski (Hamilton, New Jersey) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

At first when I purchased this DVD, I thought it was just your typical B flick horror movie, but it was like another Trilogy of Terror movie. Not just one main story line, but a few storys within the story. I personally enjoyed it. I originally bought it because I'm a big CSI fan, & wanted to see a Marg Helgenberger film. I was a little disappointed when I found that she didn't have as big a role as I thought she would. But overall, I enjoyed it.
