A Horror Anthology?
Yes, please!
One anchored by the late Tony Todd.
Double yes!
This is...
She tells him Stories along the way...
In 'Ruby Gates,' a guy hires an arsonist to force out a family so that he can sell the building for a profit.
Things go horribly awry and they die, leading to him being haunted by visions and sounds.
In 'The Bunker,' a lone white man shouts to himself and people over a Radio about how he's surviving in a wasteland against the government.
Of course, it's not that simple and remember that this is Tales From the Hood...
In 'Operatic' a young woman wants to be a Singer and is lead to an older woman who used to be an Opera Singer.
Her boyfriend has some bad intentions for the old lady, but is it that simple?
In 'Dope Kicks,' a guy makes his 'living' by attacking and robbing strangers.
He's cursed by an angry Voodoo Woman and things go crazy when he steals some shoes.
As for the Framing Device, things reach a climax in the basement.
I'm sure that the little girl telling stories of murder and mutilation is not up to anything.
The End.
A random mix of stories that don't actually connect together.
Do Horror Anthologies usually have a full Theme? I feel like the last one did.
In that case, let's look at the Stories...
The first one is a pretty basic tale, but the Effects really sell it. No shocks, but good scares.
The second one is right out of Black Mirror. It's not exactly subtle.
The third story is a bit drawn out, but features some creative dark magic nonsense.

The final tale is a decent one about revenge, punishment and kinda like that middle part of Constantine.
Tony Todd is thankfully a delight in his Supporting Role. He doesn't do much, but...he's also Tony Todd.
All in all, the Film isn't structured smoothly, but is quite enjoyable. Now to put up my yard sign...
Another mix of random stories that vary from Sci-Fi to classic Horror. It would be nice if there was a stronger throughline, but it is still fun.
