A pretty competent horror anthology which succeeds in its goal of being "entertainingly gruesome" rather than too scary. The Tales from the Crypt comparisons in the logline mean that Amicus anthology fans can tell what the closing twist will be pretty early on. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, and there are some intriguing additions to the familiar tropes (a female "Storyteller", and an intriguing timeloop gimmick), but it would be interesting to see a horror anthology with a different format...
