Needful Things

Pete Cushing plays a sinister proprietor who sells cursed objects that wreck havoc on the customers lives'.

Decent anthology horror movie that provides legitimate thrills and chills. First, "The Gate Crasher," and fourth, "The Door'" segment provide the best art direction, lighting, set decoration, and special effects. The second segment, "An Act of Kindness," is the creepiest. The third segment, "The Elemental," excels in humor. Donald Pleasance and Margaret Leighton give the best performances in this underrated horror movie.

Don't go in expecting too much, it's only anthology horror. "The Gate Crasher" is a little sleazy (similar to "Hellraiser"). "An Act of Kindness" is low quality and a little offbeat for modern audiences. "The Elemental" is more goofy and silly. "The Door"has cheesy moments. In fact, all of the stories have cheesy moments.
