A writer (Kevin S. Van Hyning) stops by a small village somewhere in
the middle of nowhere, USA, to write about the urban legends haunting this
neck of the woods. The clerk of the motel he has chosen to stay at though
offers him, instead of a room, a cup of coffee and to tell him a few local
stories he had heard ...
- A crooked politician (Jim O'Rear) picks up a beautiful woman (Paula
Marcenaro Solinger) who's more than ready to have sex with him in her
barn - but he has bitten off more than he can chew on, much more ...
- A teenaged boy (David Bunzey) is grounded by his father for drunk
driving. His attractive neighbour (Wanda Morganstern) though makes him
dinner and really turns him on, even if she's the age of his mother.
Thing is, her cooking holds a terrible secret.
- Two guys (Justin Kelly, Connor Hinkle) have hired a guide (Robert W.
Hill) who is to organize their first manhunt, with the intention to
turning the tables on him. But the woods they're at hold a darker
secret altogether.
- Back in the 1800s or so, Alice (Nicole Kruex) is accused of being a
witch by the mayor (Carl Donovan), mostly because she's in love with
his son (Boogie Dabney), the village reverend ... who desparately
tries to save her - but of course, everything ends in disaster ...
Paranormalice is a pretty awesome anthology movie that brings
together a bunch of shorts that, though varying in style due to different
directors, are all high on atmosphere, clever storytelling and macabre
details, and especially the framing story is rich on good dialogue. Now
add to this a solid cast, the right amount of dark humour, and a
well-paced edit, and you've got yourself just a pretty good piece of
horror!
