Review: Forgotten Tales
By William Pattison, aka Eric Morse
For Horror Bob's Blog
I just finished watching Reyna Young’s new film Forgotten
Tales.
I have to say I was very impressed. Reyna has constructed an
anthology film in the vein of Creepshow. I loved the fact that all the stories
in this film were inter-connected. I also like the fact that Reyna made these
character centered stories rather than gore centered. Don’t get me wrong, there
is enough violence and mayhem to satisfy any horror fan. The thing I like was
that Reyna, rather than going heavily for blood and innards, went more for
story and playing with the viewers psyche with camera and startle techniques.
Most lower budget horror films don’t do this. They shove a bunch of gore down
the viewer’s throats and give them very little else. This film I highly
recommend and I give 8 out of 10 howls…..
