"From Beyond the Grave" is a British horror anthology movie consisting of four stories....all tied together by an antique shop. The quality of the stories varies widely...with two excellent stories ("An Act of Kindness" and "The Door") and two weak ones. Each have to do with the supernatural and are rather bloody and creepy.
"Gate Crasher" is about a cursed mirror in which a Jack the Ripper-like being lives. It has the ability to control those around it and makes a nice guy (David Warner) become a serial killer.
"An Act of Kindness" is quite good...especially at the end. It's about a man who sells laces and matches and his witchy daughter.
"The Elemental" is sort of like a version of "The Exorcist" and a man apparently has an invisible evil entity that is trying to take control of him. Can a wacky woman help rid him permanently of the beast?
"The Door" involves a 17th century ornate door. Once installed, a hidden old room is exposed behind it and the warlock inside wants to capture souls.
Overall, a highly uneven but enjoyable film. If you had to only see one...see "The Door".
