i've read a few reviews of this online. Some good, some not so good. so of course i have to check it out. i netflixed the movie and watched it last night. i'm a big fan of creepshow and anthology films so that is what peaked my interest. there are 5 segments with a skit tying them together. all in all i was pretty entertained. it wasn't a bad little film at all. the first segment was pretty good with a guy getting tortured. technically the sound was off here and there. it was shot pretty good for a low end format. the acting was good on some and not so good on others. i am going to give this 10 stars to defend it from bad reviews but i would probably say 6 out of 10.
I watched this movie based on the trailer I saw on youtube, you pretty much get what you see. Anybody purchasing this movie knows whats in store for them.
All the above comments bashing this movie are not real comments, just some angry schmuck. This has flaw as does any low budget horror movie, anybody who watches these types of films already know what they are in for. The music is good from start to finish, the sound is so-so and the lighting could have been better is a couple of the segments.
The acting was bad in a couple of the segments but overall was good. The zombies in the old west was pretty funny and had great costumes, the Vampire segment "Night Scream" had tight make-up effects and the introduction to each segment was good and entertaining.
I give it a 8 for trying something new.

Slices hearkens back to the days of the anthology (most popular in the eighties). That the director got Trent Haaga to play the macabre theater host was a great coup. Unfortunately none of the other actors rate above C-grade in this movie. The scripts on a couple of the shorts are terrible. The Dead Letters or whatever is barely a horror movie, while zombie one ends with a whimper. The first segment was okay even though it has the actor (the always lovable Chuck Williams) bleeding profusely with nary a scratch on him (it really could have used more good gore!) The last short was okay too. The vampire movie one was a bit absurd at the end with the twist, but it was shot really good.
If two or three of the directors acted together they might have been able to flesh our 4-5 good shorts into this anthology. Too many cooks spoil the broth--and in this case the movie as well. It is worth a look only if you like horror anthologies in the mold of Creepshow, though Creepshow is by far a better movie.

I've seen this before but forgot until about 5 min into it. I see I haven't rated it yet, so let me say "DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!". It has all the redeeming qualities of a mid-80's college assignment - crap writing, crap acting, and some attractive women who don't show enough to make it worth watching. Film has 5 stories and a wrap around, but none of it is good. All the IMDb reviews echo "it isn't that bad".....I'd have to say "it isn't that good." Again, do NOT waste your time on this one, even if you watch utterly unwatchable horror or kung fu crap like I do. And I watched it twice. I am ashamed, but I'll blame the non-sober part of me.
Slices- The Movie is a series of five separate films that all come together in the end. A man with what seems like insomnia is plopped on the couch watching late night TV titled Theatre of the Macabre with a peculiar horror host named Professor Luscious Phibes. He introduces us to the first film on the menu called The Exterminator. Here a nasty executive gets his just deserts when he is kidnapped and tortured in the veins of films like Hostel or Saw.
The next film on Professor Luscious' list is Dead Letters and in it a very popular author named Ash can't seem get over his ex wife who has passed away. He is pining at her grave when his agent Tyler comes and tells him he needs to move on and get his ass back to writing best selling novels. Tyler also thinks he can get him a pretty nice book deal. When he comes to Ash's house for dinner, really sees how hung up the old man really is! My favorite one outta the bunch was the next called Night Screams. Here two couples head out to what they think will be a sex filled party type of situation until there is a knock on the door and Sandra shows up to sink her teeth into the situation. The Range had the whole western 1880's theme with three Confederate soldiers on the run from the law. After they meet up with skin ripping zombies they'll wish they just nested up behind those jail cell bars! The final show on Professor Phibes list is The Turn Out where a guy and his girl are led out to this romantic spot by a friend so he can drop on one knee and ask the love of his life to marry him. So when they get there the friend wanders off to give the two lovebirds some privacy. Well too bad they didn't notice the old dirty man lurking in the woods. Now he has the couple in his grips, will they manage to escape or will that wedding never come to be? Written by The Angry Princess http://thisissomescene.com

- WissenswertesIn the segment "The Range" Col. Cain, Billy, Skillet Bob and Isabelle run down the hill into camp. This comes directly from a scene in Das zauberhafte Land (1939) when the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, the Lion and Dorothy are walking along the Yellow brick road.
