Experience Terrifying Visions from the Greatest Minds in the Genre - These Are the Masters of Horror.
Features: Widescreen
John Carpenter changed the course of cinematic horror with Halloween. Cigarette Burns is equally challenging and mysterious, and goes deeper into obsession as a young film fanatic tracks down a fabled film that drives its audience mad... to the point of murder.Dreams in the Witch-House reunites director Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator) with the world of H.P. Lovecraft. There's something quite mythological about the mysterious house a young student takes up residency in, and Gordon takes us further into the dark madness than expected. William Malone (House on Haunted Hill) brought a sense of visual adventure and excitement and experimentation to The Fair-Haired Child, a chilling story about the price paid when selling one's soul...with a great monster to boot.
"[Cigarette] ...a terrific first outing for its screenwriters, and it's a joy for horror buffs to watch because it's a celebration of the ideas that surround horror films." James Emanuel Shapiro, Reel.com
"[Dreams] In addition to the small, fine cast, the atmospheric setting provides the requisite amount of creepiness to the proceedings." Russell Engebretson, DVD Verdict
