The Devil's Tail

The 1st scene was great,I thought this was setting the tone for the entire Movie. BEWARE<NOOO,,It was different vignettes,After the first 6 minutes this became UNWATCHABLE!! Totally ridiculous,what was that thingy on the floor! Listen friends, I have been trained for 50 years to critique Movies,STAY away from this ABOMINATION!! I was actually embarassed for who ever filmed this JUNK!! OH I watched 15 minutes of this for free on a channel we all love. I was actually shocked to find it. But even FREE I turned it off. The older gent in the 1st 6 minutes was awesome after that bathroom scene, TURN IT OFF!!

This is an anthology, and while it seems to try and have a wrap-around story, that wrap around in no way ties them together and is in itself just another short film in the anthology. The most unfortunate part is that the wrapper story is the only one worth watching, and it's split up by several much worse stories. Actually, the stories may not be all that bad, but they make very little sense - it's like they chopped off the last 5 minutes of each one. I suppose the one with the metal girls actually does have an ending, but that's the only one. Honestly, if you're reading this review to decide whether or not to watch the movie, then I recommend you find another one to watch.

Yeah, so first off, neither the synopsis nor the video trailer said this was an anthology, which might be how they get people to actually watch it since most if not all horror anthologies really aren't done well enough to get someone to watch the whole thing. This one is no different, and I wouldn't have finished it if I wasn't "watching" it while playing mobile games and browsing the internet at the same time.

The stories don't seem to have any common connection beyond how people can be cruel. The only bit that really would fit into a horror movie would be the burnt guy from the trailer, so if you've watched that, then you've seen all the scary bits that the film had. The acting was mediocre, except for the nurse who was horrible. I honestly don't know what this was supposed to be about, if it even had a story behind it.

This isn't horror, I'm not sure what it is, but it isn't that... Maybe some art student can contrive some far fetched idea what the artist wanted it to be like people do with modern art. Time is better spent rewatching Kitchen nightmares as that's scarier than this by far.

There's nothing as disconcerting as going on IMDB for a little illumination on what you just watched to find "I only watched for six minutes. Don't waste your time," or "It only played to the end cause I was reading." In other words, you felt compelled to review a film you haven't seen. Some people must really like to see their names in print. That said, it took me a bit to realize that this was an anthology. I think that was because they aren't so much complete stories as they are vignettes. The closest to a complete tale is the one about the metal-head chicks attending a rock festival and staying in a rental house. And maybe the one about the girl getting her first period. Anyway, the stories piqued my interest at some points, lost my attention at others, but overall provided me with some unsettling moments and some gruesome imagery, which is all I require for a direct-to-video horror flick. I look forward to these filmmakers' future works, hopefully staying within the horror genre, as it's fertile ground for innovation. Some of these vignettes could be exapanded into full-length features, such as the one about the old man collapsing at the train station.

An hour thirty minutes of my life I can't get back. This movie is billed as a single story but after spending 45 minutes confused, I realized there won't be any cohesion in this anthology. If I didn't spend $5.99 to watch this travesty, I would have shut it off. A truly horribly done wreck.
