The Hunter's Anthology

Yes, everyone; it's low budget. But why is that a bad thing? Lower your Hollywood expectations and appreciation the passion behind the production of something like this. It's a five part anthology series inspired by The Twilight Zone with stories that are engrossing and spooky- each using a different sector of the paranormal, helping to keep the saga fresh. There's witchcraft, home invasion, mental hospitals and love potions; making The Hunter's Anthology accessible to a wide variety of viewers whether you're into mystery, horror or science fiction.

I thought I'd give it a go, though suspicious that out of 22 votes it had a higher score that even really high quality stuff doesn't get; usually a sign of people involved in production upvoting. I'm only going on the first episode because I sat through it just to be fair, even though the acting was terrible and the plot a re-hash of so many stories like it. Nothing original and so tedious I wouldn't watch the rest. Watch if you like bad actors playing out predictable stories.

I have to say right off the bat, this Is one of the better indie film anthologies that I have seen. The music was freaking awesome. No spoilers, but there is a post credits scene with an amazing score and I got chills! Rarely happens to me. I absolutely love how the anthology starts, then each episode takes us through the characters on the train. I found it very intriguing and kept my attention. I also think the cinematography did its job for this and painted a 'Constantine'-esq feel. The lead was believable and that is a tough thing to nail, the almost cowboy, smug character that also needs to be likable. Overall, had a great time with this and would recommend!

I can't believe all the 9s and 10s this has scored, must have been reviewed by 10 year olds or relatives of the cast. The acting is truly awful, the dialogue is cringeworthy and the stories so predictable. The main character is such a walking cliché, Clint Eastwood meets Harry Dresden, with a bad wig and worse dialogue. There is very little original about any of this, from the characters to the stories. I really can't say how stunned I am at the positive reviews. Worth watching, if only for a lesson in how not to make a horror anthology.

Ok this is low budget, bad acting and crap effects. But it's also fun. It's similar to Creepshow or Trilogy of Terror. I kept watching in spite of myself, so there's something to be said for that.
