A Samhain Liturgy: Epic diabolic horror! A couple prepare to go to a Heavy Metal Halloween party. He's a deathbanger {complete with spikes, & a pentagram on leather jacket}, she's a pretty goth-type girl. Her little brother is a little devil, who provides the sacrifice for the night's ceremony. Apparently, unbeknownst to them, a satanic panic cult has gathered in the basement, where a twisted demonoid is unleashed to feed. Fantastic transitions here!
Dead Lift: An uber/lyft driver picks up a man in a Count Dracula costume, covered in (fake) blood. Turns out he's a real vampire after all, but not the typical variety. Happy ending. The predator and prey both get what they want in the end. More of a psychological thriller, containing a Lovecraftian vibe, and an Invasion of The Body Snatchers influence.
Overkill: A most amusing episode where serial killers are literally arguing with eachother as to whom shall take the next victim, whose dancing inside a house in a sexy nurse's costume. One reminds one of BTK, the other, Jason. In a surprise turn, I think it went to the beast man after all. If you snooze, you lose!
Apache Hatchet Massacre II: A vengeful american native spirit seeks justice for ancient grave desecration, possessing minds & bodies to deliver the executions. Reminiscent of Scalps. The premise itself could work quite well. But unfortunately, the presentation seems rather gratuitous. The characters are lazy, obnoxious, pretentious, and sloppy, which does deliver somewhat of a pleasing sensation to watch them massacred. I suppose the 'indian' {"feather, not dot", sic} used a hatchet because there was no actual tomahawk available. A parody of a parody of slasher films.
Sister Mary: An 'oppressed' former nun's schizophrenia is awakened wherein she encounters her own traumas {"demons"}, desiring to explore her carnal nature, but because of various unnecessary dogmatic guiltrips, recedes into mental illness. She could very well have been named "Sister Sybil". Includes chopping up a lover's body, hiding it in the basement which inadvertently summons a demon like a sacrifice, who becomes her true lover.
