The Theatre Bizarre DVD Review



Synopsis: Down a seedy city street, a young woman is obsessed with what appears to be a long abandoned theatre. One night, she sees the front door slightly ajar and impulsively decides to sneak inside. But there in the vast, eerie auditorium, a show unlike any other unfolds before her eyes. Its host is an odd marionette-like man who will introduce her to six tales of the truly bizarre: A couple traveling in a remote part of the French Pyrenees crosses paths with a lustful witch; A paranoid lover faces the wrath of a partner who has been pushed to her limit; The Freudian dreams of an unfaithful husband blur the lines between fantasy and reality; The horrors of the real world are interpreted through the mind of a child; A woman addicted to other people's memories gets her fix through the fluid of her victims' eyeballs; And a perverse obsession with sweets turns sour for a couple in too deep. But as the stories unfold, something strange is happening to the woman. Something irreversible and horrific. Something that awaits its next audience in THE THEATRE BIZARRE.

Review: The Theatre Bizarre is a great new horror compilation.  It features six tales of horror in the tradition of great series like Creep Show.  There are, of course, homages to many of these older films included in these various tales, which I think is fantastic.  We're at a point now with horror that we can look back and see what really works and make it new again.  These tales are told in a unique way and will definately appeal to anyone that misses Tales from the Crypt, like we do!

Interest Range: Horror
