A Night of Horror: Nightmare Radio

This film does not deserve a 1/10 rating. Its original in some shorts and meh in others. But enjoyable over all.

A collection of YouTube short horror films remade. Good selection.

The core of the story, the DJ is perhaps the chink in the armour.

I recommend to horror fans.

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.

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.

Hard to rate this anthology anything than middle 5/10. Its not bad, its competently made but, at least for me, non of the stories stand out much. Comparing to for example some V/H/S episodes that haunts me to this day, this was rather forgettable experience. Still decent ride for avid horror fan.

I totally understand if someone is not really on board with a film and sees a high rating that they immediately go the exact opposite route (or vice versa if you think a rating is way too low and you just plain dug a movie). But as I stated above there is a middle ground. And with an anthology movie you most likely have a mixture of stories - some will grip and some won't.

In some instances you might be love everything or hate everything of course, but if you remain open minded, you probably will select the stories/things you liked and the ones you didn't. And while life is probably not a box of chocolate (man that sugar rush would be quite something wouldn't it?), you can be assured that you will get a mixture of things. So while the quality may vary (I especially liked the spanish language one here to give one example, although even that had some minor things I disliked), this overall is more than a decent effort! If you are into horror short stories/anthologies that is
