...Yeah, this is a <i>great</i> substitute for HorrorFest!<br /><br />You're right, I did kind of get TV quality and horror anthology quality mixed up. When I think of horror anthologies, I instantly think of TV, even though some of them do come in the form of feature films.<br /><br />Softcore porn, you say?

Great review, very illuminating treatment...Awesome! Great review, very illuminating treatment. I thought you might like this, since Horror Fest is over I thought this might be an adequate substitute.<br /><br />As a diehard TVphile I do have one minor, minor note to contend: TV's reputation as compared to film. That may have been true in the past, but in the post-Sopranos world TV is as consequential a force as film, culturally speaking. Masters of Horror is itself an aspect of this wave. Is The Walking Dead not on par with or better than any recent zombie movie?<br /><br />As far as anthology horror TV goes, I can't blame you there, you're right it can often be terrible... but I'd argue that's the modus operandi for anthology horror films as much as for anthology horror TV. In fact Tales from the Crypt (film) and The Twilight Zone (film) are generally considered inferior to their TV counterparts. I mean, you're 100% right about the *reputation* of TV and horror anthology, it's just not necessarily an accurate reputation.<br /><br />Ooh and since you mentioned sex & nudity being worthwhile in the Chocolate review, you should definitely watch The Hunger. It's available on Netflix, *another* anthology horror show from Showtime but this one was from the 90s. The stories aren't spectacular but the show has a creepy vibe and every (?) episode is full of sex & nudity, verging on soft core porn.<br />Tenzin Swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05925867097747621833noreply@blogger.com
