This movie wasn't horrible but it wasn't good either. The radio host character was absolutely abysmal. He tried so hard to be scary and suspenseful but came across as a piece of cardboard.
I only lasted 30 minutes and 2 stories into the movie. The 1st was completely nonsensical, boring. and not even remotely scary. The 2nd tried to have a punch but fell completely flat. It was a complete and utter snooze fest waiting for the completely anticlimactic ending.
I've seen up voting before but I'm surprised to see 800 possible fake accounts just to up vote this movie. Both of the written reviews are completely fake and you can always tell because they're so ridiculously over the top about how much they love the movie and then you watch it and realize there's no way that any real person could have thought that about THIS movie. In pretty sure they just cut and paste them from real movie review websites, made for different movies.
Imdb seriously needs to solve this problem.

This is not a 10 star movie. This is a 4. A few average stories, a few bad ones.
The best is the Russian subtitled one. Luck perhaps as they probably threw in a foreign language one for diversity. The rest are at most average. I'm not gonna review each segment I only am leaving a review so someone doesn't watch this expecting 10 stars.
The radio studio segments were not too good, not so much the acting but the inane writing. The whole radio studio segment is a borrowed adaptation I saw in one of many other horror anthology movies or shows but I couldn't place where, I spent more time trying to figure out where I saw it used before than caring about the bad stories.
The old music they use is by far the best thing in this movie.

7.1 avg rating upon viewing. This movie will avg out to be a 4.2 - 4.4, and thats generous.
I was given the chance to sit down and watch the 2019 horror anthology "A Night of Horror: Nightmare Radio" here in 2020. And since I hadn't already seen it, nor even heard about it, and it being a horror movie, of course I managed to find the time to sit through it.
Well, I must say that "A Night of Horror: Nightmare Radio" was not exactly an outstanding nor memorable addition to the horror anthology genre. 90% of the segments were just so bland that they came and went without leaving a lasting impression. In fact, it was the first story that turned out to be the most interesting and watchable, so anything beyond that is just filling. As for the narration story that ties the stories together, well...
I will say that the narrator, Rod Wilson (played by James Wright) was actually interesting enough, and that was especially because of James Wright's performance.
If you enjoy horror anthologies, then there are far better choices available out there. ""A Night of Horror: Nightmare Radio" was just not cutting it, nor bringing enough interesting contents to the table.
I am rating "A Night of Horror: Nightmare Radio" a mere three out of ten stars, given the fact that the majorities of the stories were just bland or downright pointless.

Short stories with a base line that was supposed to entertain and keep you on the edge of your seat. I unfortunately did not care for the ending let alone the long build ups to nothing but lame scares.
