I like horror anthology movies and over the years we've seen some fantastic ones from Creepshow (1982) to Trick R Treat (2007) but the main struggle they have is they can only be as good as their weakest tale.
Horror House has a wrap around (Like they usually do) sadly it features Lloyd Kaufman and I still to this day consider the man a festering boil on the rear end of the industry.
The stories are hit and miss but sadly more the latter, I'd summarize but even the good ones wouldn't translate very well.
They range from good all the way down to terrible and for that reason this certainly isn't one I'd recommend to anyone.
Not scary, not original and certainly don't expect even the slightest degree of humour.
From the cover art you can immediatly tell that this was never going to be anything special and in thinking that you'd be right. A knife, some blood and a pair of boobs does not equate to a good advertisement for a movie. Not the worst, but it isn't worth wading through the garbage for the moments of passable entertainment.
The Good:
Couple of the stories are passable
The Bad:
Lloyd Kaufman
Lame cover art
Most of the stories are really quite dire
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Don't have kids
Don't have dolls
Don't watch anything featuring Lloyd Kaufman!
