Although I love horror I don't really like anthologies so I had pretty low expectations, but I ended up really enjoying the movie. Most stories were fun and interesting and they managed to get the tone exactly right, which is very difficult. And the gore was lovely :)
At first I wasn't sure, but stuck with it and it was a laugh. Horror comedy with lots of 80s horror references. Worth a watch if you like cheesey.
The problems with anthologies is that one is as bad as it's worst short story. If your worst story is good enough, you're probably into a good anthology.
But this is not the case. I enjoyed the first one although I expected a lil more. The goo one I found it the most funny, even made me lol, which is weird in me, but I like horror comedy and silly gore when done right. The last story was entertaining at parts, at other's a lil cringey. The midle stories were avarage hit or miss.
So even if I give it a 4 for it's worse stories, I'd recommend it if you feel like watching a really silly horror movie, with some good and some bleh stories, with some meta commentary about horror and jokes about it but expect silly acting, lines, expressions and gratuitous gore (which isn't that bad).

Honestly For anthology it's pretty good. It's got a great 80s twist to everything and pokes a lot of fun jokes.
If you're into campy 80s horror and making fun at those movies... I think this will be a great fit for you. Oh It's also got a fun Cabin in the woods type of mix to it at the end if you know what I mean.

This movie begins with an interesting premise: make people laugh. This, in a horror movie, is absolutely key especially when your budget is tight. The work of the writers and production is excellent to bring the game to each situation to offer unexpected, hilarious moments, and the necessary dose of blood to have a nice time. The rhythm slows down in the final part but it is still a good example of the cinema to be made. Recommended.
