Video Shop Tales of Terror

Great little anthology film. Shows how good uk indie horror can be. All set around a old video rental store which I remember some being a little grimy but not this bad🤣 as with all anthology films some segments stand out better than others. My personal favourite segment was Mary Whitehouse you're a c#@t which the title alone is aimed at people of a certain age that remember her personal vendetta against our freedom of choice. We also need to mention the spoof trailers especially Tony Mardons don't sit on his face which is absolutely bonkers. All in all a decent watch especially for indie horror fans. Sequels are already in the works which bodes well.

One of the best horror films I've seen in a long time. The style of the segments were unique each with the own way of proving differential memories of nostalgia from its audience.

As somebody raised when video tapes were loosing fashion I've always had an appreciation for these kind of retro movies. Video Shop Tales Of Terror, what with its cheesy pun filled comedy to the use of physical over digital special effects. This is a movie I shall watch again and recommend to others.

Overall I want to finish this review by thanking all the different teams due to this being an anthology movie which in recent times have become more of a limited concept and all parties involved should ultimately be proud of what they've achieved.

Fun, Campy and Gorey Horror Anthology. Some great Atompsheric Filming and Referances to some Classic Horror and it stars Dani Thompson as a Video Shop Horror Hostess.

A lot of fun a great Anthology by Genre Filmmakers.

I watched a showing of the Horror Anthology at Quad Cinema in Derby in early 2023. I also own the Self-Distubted Blu Ray sold by the film-makers.

It was great fun and ambitious ar two hours running time.

I really loved the retro style the film was shot in. I also liked the Evil Dead and Mary Whitehouse tributes. Whitehouse was of course an anti-advocate for Horror films on VHS in the day.

Check out it out, if you can. Good Horror Anthology Fun.

Cheap brit horror anthology.

Way too long, but surprisingly not terrible at times.

I particularly liked the evil dead/video nasty segment.

Overall it's hard to recommend. A lot of it is unimaginative & dull. & it is over 2 hours ffs. Needed to be trimmed massively

But it had its moments. Enough of them that it makes me wonder why most of it was poor when they clearly had the ability to make things that weren't too bad.

Some of the girls were pretty hot. Wish there was more nudity. Shame Dani Thompson is in it cause she cannot act. She must be good for one thing. Everyone else is pretty good though.

Low budget horror comedy often corny but spirited. Production values dubious enough it often shatters any attempt at serious; hanging onto questionable acting or video filter effects. It's not necessarily intentionally funny but a knowing campy vibe, sometimes 'dont sit on his face' type silly and other times more traditionally earnest. It's a good thing these are short, I almost turned it off after the second story and even relatively better ones dont seem good enough to stand alone. The best part is the fake advertisements and style touches between stories. In an example of bad, one story has a twist that appears the fellow is just wearing an obvious rubber mask. There is an Evil Dead homage though - an example of not offering too much fresh but in a garage made popcorn passion project sort of way. "Because Saint Murnau said so..." Your turn.
