In a library, a student (Corey Schuler) finds a hand-written journal
chronicling four stories of horror:
- Boo Men: A guy (Danny Costa) thinks he is pursued by masked
men. His psychiatrist (Timmy Jordan) thinks nothing much of it - until
the guy kills his father (Rich Bolen), believing him to be one of
"them".
- Full Moonlighting: Colin (Doug Matthews) has just returned
from Europe, only to find out that he's a werewolf now. He breaks up
with his girlfriend Jen (Katie Harris) in order to protect her from
harm ... not knowing of course she's a werewolf as well.
- Skeleton Keys: Sarah (Jen Saraullo) and John (Sean Quinn)
spend a night in her deceased aunt's (Christina Jorro) house, only to
find out more about her than is good for them - like that she was
haunted by the ghost of her mother, a ghost that's still present in
the house even now ...
- Suckers: Brian (Dan Vidor) and Kevin (Joe Bahar) decide to
close up their movietheatre for good with a vampire movie marathon -
only to find out that vampires are very real, and they have found
abode in a room behind the big screen.

Back in the library: The student finds the next page of the journal
empty - but the masked maniac behind him sees to it that it will be filled
shortly.
Independent low budget horror anthology that does exactly nothing to
reinvent the genre as such - but that said, director Chris LaMartina shows
a sure hand in both creating atmosphere and storytelling. So if you don't
expect any real revelations and are content with competent genre fare, you
might want to check this one out.
