I have heard and seen the banner of this movie a few times, and finally it was the time to watch it. I got a big problem and that's i have watched this without subs, which means i had to follow the movie the best as i can. When i have subs i can accurately follow the plot(s). This time it was a bit different.

1st story: The couple Lovecraft frog story. I can tell you that it's unique, and pretty dull. There really isn't much going on except this couple decides to visit a witch, that then turns both of them into frogs. That's pretty much it. I think i need to know about the original Lovecraft story that this was based on, in order to truly understand this.

2nd story: Was i think the best of all 6. This story would of benefited if it was it's own movie. What i mean is, i wish that we had more info on how truly did our two main stars love each other. Like a more more indepth build up. It is a fascinating story, of spiral into Madness. The acting seemed fine, the gore effects are the best of all 6 stories, and this segment needs it's own film.

3rd story: Funny. That's all what i can say. It's was a "meme" story about nightmares. However, the ending kind of sucked because the ending was spoiled with both of their dreams. However, i still found the second story funny, and interesting take on dreams.

4rd story: Pointless. A kid is asking her mom about death. That's is the 4th story. Felt incredibly boring, and out of left field. Every story seems are a titan compared to this one. This feels like it does not belong here at all, and it just felt incredibly slow. Maybe if the 4th story had it's own movie, that could of helped?

5th story: Mixed bag. At first, it was fascinating. At first, i though that all of this was kinda stupid, because why do you have to end someone, in order to write a story about them??? It does not make sense, when you can just interview them? Or i think this is it: Our main character can not dream, so she takes other peoples lives as dreams? She then tries to cross the line with understanding what happens before life, which escalates in her getting punished for it. (Herself). It's a unique story i can tell you that, but i am unsure how much sense it makes.

6th story: Minus the gore, everything else was just bad. Probably the worst story of all. However, the main actress in this segment is pretty good looking.

Score: A Tier: 2nd Story (This deserves it's own movie. The twist at the end really makes everything tighter.) 5th Story (It was unique, even though it does not make much sense, it still was a fascinating watch).

B Tier 3rd Story (As i said, a goofy story, that makes you chuckle).

4th Story (Too slow. Again i think it would benefit if it was it's own movie, prolonged).

C Tier 1st Story 6th Story

I mean if you enjoyed the V/H/S Franchise and Tales of Halloween, you'll probably find something here that you'll like.
