It's completely gonzo, 29 August 2000
9/10
Author: i5683 from Stamford, Ct

The three stories were pretty wild. The first one was ok, I was hoping it would have had more of the spooky graveyard type stuff. Cool effects, though. The next story, of Red Ridinghood, was pretty normal, by horror standards. The last one rocked... I never saw anything like it before. Well worth the rental price.
