Fever Dreams

Fun, reminds me of the old Twilight Zone series. Looks great, stories are great. Leaves you thinking.

I remember watching TZ when younger and getting that slightly creeped out but fascinated feeling - I just couldn't look away but wasn't sure I wanted to see what came next. Well, Fever Dreams brought all that back and that sensation increased as the film unfolded. The emcee character from the first short is great at helping the viewer change gears from one short to the next. And a couple of the later shorts have unique stories that went to unexpected places. Really great suspenseful evening!

You won't want to leave your seat once you start watching this film. Have all your goodies with you so you don't have to leave your search. This is a very entertaining and attention grabbing movie. Enjoy it and perhaps you will want to submit your own review when you have finished it. Also, this is a film that you will want to watch again in the near future. The acting is rather good and they will keep your interest up and want to see more. This could be one of those movies that would have a second installment that will continue to keep your attention for a second time. One can only hope so in the future.

This horror anthology brings some creepiness with a nice side of the Twilight Zone. A good addition to the pantheon of horror anthologies. More my kinda thing as it has supernatural and ghostly elements. I'm not into the overtly gross/violent/torture porn stuff, so this enabled me to feel creeped out without jump starting a vomit.

Also, it's nice to support and give props to independent film making. Big studios be darned!

Kick back, turn the lights off, maybe indulge in an adult beverage or three, and ride along with fever dreams.

By the way, keep that creepy kid with the camera away from me.

Shoo-wee! This is a major step up from most anthology horror films. Quality cinematography, writing, effects, acting, it's all here. Each tale is both gripping and palpable. There are elements of humor too. It's even got its own host between segments! Another great touch are the subtle nods to other segments that connect the different shorts together.

Honestly, it's a good grab bag of shorts wherein anyone will find something that tickles their fancies.

No idea what these shorts are titled as, so I came up with my own titles lol. Here are brief synopses:

1. The Agent: A screenplay agent with a deadline breathing down the back of his neck desperately searches for a quality screenplay to offer to his impatient client as a mysterious unkempt man keeps pushing a peculiar screenplay on him.

2. Entertainer: A man is interviewed about the loss of his wife: what of her estate; how will he go about dating again; and what about the family's lawsuit? Oh! That's quite the coffee table!

3. The Cameraman: A young man living at odds with his oppressive and denigrating mother strives to great lengths to create his own horror film.

4. It's My House: Showing up late for work again, a frazzled stock broker with performance issues discovers that he's on his last leg with his boss. To make matters worse, some strangers seem to have moved into his new home.
