The Profane Exhibit

The ten year wait is over, but how to review this extreme horror anthology? Let's start with the obvious. Extreme horror anthologies usually suck. Partly this is true of The Profane Exhibit, but then there are also moments (really just moments) of almost brilliance. For most of the directors, these little snippets (most are about ten minutes) do not present their best work or even their most extreme work. Overall it is better than I expected (yes I expected very little), but it's nothing special and falls way short of the 10 year hype. Two snippets stand out for watchable storylines and three for their unique viewer experience (yes there is an overlap). This film is probably only for a select audience. I'd say probably a 6/10 for an extreme anthology.
