On death row, Killer Callahan (Mike Ferguson) gets told three tales of
terror by a mysterious co-convict (Mel Novak):
- Countdown: Carmen (Nicolle Ashley) gets increasingly weird
and threatening messages on her cellphone - but even if she's properly
freaked out, none of her friends seem to take this all that sertiously
...
- Dine In, Die Out: Salesman Fred (Daniel Schweiger) travels
through a God-forsaken village and decides to grab a bite at the local
diner - but fails to realize the place's cook (Timothy Patrick Quill)
reacts rather peculiar to critique from out-of-towners ...
- The Dark Lullaby:
It starts out as a girls' night out for best friends Marinella (Donna
Hamblin) and promiscuous Joanie (Helene Udy), then evolves into
Marinella actually killing a serial killer (Geovonna Casanova), and
culminates into being haunted by her in weird ways ...
Genre icon Lynn Lowry plays a fraudulent psychic in this one
- Reformation: Young Audrey (Geovanbna Casanova) has worked
with photographer Jordan (Ahmed Asghar Baig) many times before - so
she doesn't even suspect that anything might be off this day until he
chlorophorms her and she wakes up tied to a chair in his basement.
Thing is. she isn't even Jordan's only victim ...
- Terror at Station 13: It's deep space, way into the future,
when a spaceship crew stumbles upon an alien lifeform, and is
uncertain how to handle it. Thing is, the lifeform has a pretty good
idea of how to handle them ...
- Jack Incarnate: Walking the streets one night, prostitute
Elizabeth (Geovonna Casanova) is followed by an unknown person who
might just be the local prostitute killer, but is saved in the nick of
time by cabbie Jaclyn (Maria Olsen). Thing is, Jaclyn mightnot be the
do-gooder she at first appears to be ...

A very nice horror anthology with tales from all shades of the genre,
held together by a strong enough wraparound to stand on its own. And while
the individual segments may vary wildly both in general tone and when
comes to approach to horror, they're all decently produced and offer
splendid genre entertainment - so if you're at all into horror, you're
bound to love at least some of this wildly ...
