A babysitter is looking after a couple of bratty kids when one of the kids reveals a blank VHS cassette that was left mysteriously in his bag at school. Letting curiosity overrule common sense the sitter sticks it on and we get treated to a series of bloody and mostly quite effective short stories including a coven of witches and an alien. The final (and creepiest) tale is about an evil clown and is genuinely quite effective.
The effects are perhaps a little sloppy in places, the acting is not 100% but overall this is actually pretty good and a real surprise given the amount of turds i've waded through over the years. Certainly I will be giving it another watch at some point. Well worth seeking out.  |
That alien segment, though... just madness... just a woman in a house being chased by a guy in spandex and a mask for ten minutes, then... nothing! Didn't think you could do that these days, but I'm glad you apparently can. The rest of it is a slop-bucket of partial craziness and semi-competence. I do like, but reservedly.
