Galaxy of Horrors

Honestly, These short movies aren't worth the bother to watch. there is no time to build up a story line, And the editing so chopped up, that it's almost like watching clippings that don't belong together. This movie also represents everything that is wrong with modern movies. It goes straight for the nudity and gore, And sacrifices credibility as a trade off. I do not recommend it, Unless your into cheap thrills.

So as an anthology of which this is not because real anthologies direct their own stories and don't just lump together a bunch of other people's, I thought not too many of them were very good and some were only vaguely science-fiction themed from where I was looking, and I thought most of them were just sloppy and rushed and kind of all over the place like "Flesh Computer" and "Eden" and especially "Kingz" which I found moronic and especially unappealing...German rap, no thanks.. To me the highlights of the shorts were "Iris", where a man's sentient Iphone-like device gets the better of him when it disapproves of his callously murderous ways, that one had a nice easy setup and payoff and was coherent and darkly comical and macabre enough at the end that it was the one short that actually felt like it could have been in a horror comic! "Pathos" I thought was a very sharply made and grim story of dark sci-fi that sees mankind condemned to a nightmarish hell of existing as complete slaves to a ruthless computer system that was originally meant to free the mind of man from the harshness of a hopelessly polluted reality... It was very atmospheric and visually striking and a little saddening, that short had a lot going for it from a thematic standpoint, it had me pondering on it a little afterwards... Are we all going to be freakish techno slaves in the future? I liked "Entity" too because it had a lot of claustrophobic ambiance, if that's the correct word for a story about a woman lost floating in space.. It made you scared for the woman and feel her incomprehensible fear as she was drawn into the gulf of some unfathomable cosmic horror. I didn't entirely get the confusing ending but I enjoyed the buildup and the visuals of it, it had an effectively vast, celestial feel to it. And it was kinda lame but I liked the wraparound thing with the poor guy stuck in the malfunctioning cryogenic pod and forced to watch space tales of terror as his life support slowly dwindled as he failed to guess the correct password, and when he finally did it really wasn't much help! This anthology was about decent, I didn't enjoy it as much as "Minutes After Midnight", but I always like to see as many new short films as I can to hopefully find the gems, and this didn't really have any, but sci-fi short films are always hit and miss and tricky to do well compared to the horror ones. Not particularly good but it's worth a look at least once for the better stories. Enjoyable!!

I was drawn in by this 2017 movie's cover, as it was rather interesting, and I must admit that I opted to watch the movie based on the cover alone. I hadn't even bothered reading the synopsis or checking IMDb first. So I didn't know that I was in for a sci-fi horror anthology.

And "Galaxy of Horrors" is exactly that - like almost every other horror anthology out there. The eight segments and the narrative that ties them together were of various degrees of production value, entertainment value and such. Of course they were. It would be silly to say otherwise. Some of the segments were good and watchable, while others were just mediocre, bland or pointless. So this is definitely a bag of mixed goodies.

While "Galaxy of Horrors" was watchable, it was not an outstanding or memorable anthology. In fact, I doubt I will even remember it in about a week's time or so. There are far better and way more enjoyable - and memorable - horror anthologies out there, if you enjoy horror anthologies. Some of the stories were good, others were bland.

The acting in the anthology was also of a very varied degree. Some acting performances were good, some were dubious, some were bland, but I will not say that anyone was outright bad or poor.

Visually then "Galaxy of Horrors" was surprisingly good. There were a good display of effects, but of course, some segments fared better than others. The most outstanding here was the "Entity" segment.

Ultimately then "Galaxy of Horrors" was just another run-of-the-mill horror anthology, for better or worse. So you basically know what you are getting here before sitting down to watch "Galaxy of Horrors", if you opt to read the synopsis or check IMDb first.

My rating of the 2017 anthology "Galaxy of Horrors" lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.

If you are looking for something scary to watch this Halloween see this movie. It is very scary. It has great story lines. It also great acting. It also has great special effects. I do not know why people are giving it a 4. That is just underrating it. This is so mush better then Sinister. This one of the scariest movies I have seen. I give this movie 6. It is very underrated. It is so mush better then The Bride of Chucky. If you are looking of a good horror movie this is the one to see. It is very scary. If it does not scary you no movie will. It is very creative. See it. It is a great movie. It very very scary. Scarier then The silence of the lambs could ever be. If you like science fiction stories you will like this movie.

"Galaxy of Horrors" is a terrible anthology of eight sci-fi / horrors shorts.

The lead story of a man trapped in a malfunctioning cryogenic pod is absolutely boring.

The segments "Eden", "Flesh Computer" "Pathos" and "Eveless" are gruesome and unbearable.

The segments "Entity" and "Kingz" are watchable, but not good.

The segment "Iris" is reasonable and can be watched.

Only "They Will All Die in Space" is the only one worthwhile watching.

The IMDb User Rating (4.9) is overrated. My vote is two.
