The 100 Candles Game

That's what this is. What dissapoints me, is that one of the stories, 'The Visitant (2014)', was also a short movie among others in 'Patient Seven (2016)'. If you make a movie like this, at least put original, newly made, shorts in your movie. Don't use existing ones. That's so cheap. Watch this for the shorts. The rest is just luggage.

The whole anthology is fine, many of the short stories are great but the red string that ties them together is weak and ridiculously bad, from the effects to the acting cast. Thumbs up for the cat, the best actor of them.

No pun intended - and quite a few interesting actors in this. Been a while since I last saw Amy Smart. Was it the Crank movie(s)? Probably - anyway, she is one of the segments and the stories themselves are overall quite well told (again no pun intended of course).

That all being said, the movie is quite predictable. The jump scares to be expected. Still the effects are good or rather decent enough. If you like horror movies and specifically this format of more than one story being told ... well you have a winner for yourself here. At least not a loser, am I right? Now you may wonder why people even play those games - but think about it: in real life you might play them too, because you expect nothing to happen ... also we need these decisions, otherwise you wouldn't have a movie at all ...

I'm down with a collection of horror stories - but this one is a wee bit boring. The mini tales were predictable for the most part, as was the ending of the short stories.

I don't mind the odd horror anthology, it's a bit of a lucky dip, but for the most part this one is okay. Some of the acting is questionable, particularly the 4 main characters, but sometimes it's hard to tell if it is the actor or the script. The sub stories are done fairly well, with pretty good acting throughout, and interesting storylines. There is no back story as to where they were, and why they were doing it, and the characters are fairly bland. But for some reason I can't put my finger on, the whole thing just seems a little soulless. Whether it is the lack of empathy with the main characters, or the, at times, clumsy story telling I don't know. Worth a watch if your not expecting too much.
