The Red Nightmare

Just a bunch of random stories and none are scary and none make any sense. Do not waste your time.

I don't usually review movies. I was searching for some horror movie, a lame one, so I could fall asleep while watching on my phone with headphones on. Found this gem on Tubi. I had to pause the movie as it was damn good. I saved it to watch it later but couldn't stop myself from reviewing it. The stories are short but scary enough to keep one engaged. The shortness works as there are no dull moments. I think this is the way to move forward in horror genre in this Tiktok era. Give it a try, it's worth it. The first story is 'Momo'. This should be enough for a horror fan to try this anthology. Great work creators.

Had to turn this rubbish off after 20 minutes & I can usually sit through ANYTHING. I've seen a better makeup job by a toddler who broke into their mum's makeup bag. I could forgive the awful effects if it made up for it with plot or decent acting but this film failed on all counts.

Let me quote before I get started: "One of the scariest horror anthologies inspired by a series of nightmares and brought into existence by the darkest mind in the YouTube sphere." Yep, that's what someone (I'm betting the "darkest mind" who brought it into existence) wrote about this what ever this is supposed to be. Reminded me of a term I learned long, long ago: hyperbole (It means way exaggerated for those who have taken English, during the last three decades in US schools). Story number one: female sees a very unrealistic female. Story two: female sees a very unrealistic female. Story three: geeky male sees a very unrealistic female. (I guess this one was "different".) All three were in their homes. I guess unrealistic females like to go around to different houses. I figured that the rest of the movie would followed the same route, so here I am rating this piece of hyperbole. LOL At least make it funny!

A lot of these bad ratings don't understand that this anthology is a collection of shorts are from produced and directed by mostly film students and possibly some well established "horror shorts" producers and directors that don't have a crazy Hollywood budget. I love watching "YouTube" horror shorts, so to have a collection that's put together without me having to search after watching each one is awesome! I enjoyed this. It's not for everyone but the effort put into each story I can definitely appreciate. It's nothing new and It is what it is, and one should not go into it with high expectations.
