Don't be afraid; it's only your life

Horror

Daffy undead gal Penny Dreadful, her smitten zombie buddy Ned, and lycanthrope Wolfboy relate three tales of terror in an old rundown movie theater: A young couple find themselves being stalked by a lethal jack-in-the-box in "Slash-in-the-Box;" mousy young lady Alice tries to figure out what exactly happened to her last night in "The Morning After;" and a group of friends encounter an eccentric backwoods family after their van breaks down in the middle of nowhere in "The Slaughter House."

VIBE

A delightfully trashy anthology that revels in its low-budget charm. Expect over-the-top gore, cheesy scares, and a meta-narrative that’s as fun as it is forgettable. Perfect for a schlocky, fun-filled horror night.
