Film Review: 'The ABCs of Death'
25 April 2013 8:50 AM, PDT | CineVue | See recent CineVue news »
★★☆☆☆ Considering the subject matter of The ABCs of Death (2012), the new compilation horror from producers Ant Timpson and Tim League, it was always going to be - to some degree, at least - controversial. With segments by directors such as Srdjan Spasojevic (A Serbian Film) and Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police), how could it be anything else? Imagine 26 different film directors each being given a letter of the alphabet, before being told to think of a word starting with said letter and base a horror short around it. The result is The ABCs of Death - a film so frankly off-the-radar, it almost defies description.

One of 26 fatal segments of The ABCs of Death.
The horror film The ABCs of Death is a high-concept anthology movie if ever there was one: 26 individual “chapters” on the topic of death, each helmed by a different director assigned to a specific letter of the alphabet.
Showcasing the wide variety of possibilities when it comes to that most final of topics, the segments include the fatal visions of such established genre filmmakers as Ti West (The Innkeepers), Xavier Gens (The Divide), Adam Wingard (V/H/S) and Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police) amongst a whole helluva lot of them.
The unrated ABCs of Death, which features an ill-fated a cast of performers from around the world, received a limited release to theaters in the U.S. following its rollout to genre film festivals around the world. »

‘The ABCs of Death’ Review
16 April 2013 1:45 PM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
Directed by Ben Wheatley, Simon Rumley, Jake West, Lee Hardcastle, Ti West, Jason Eisener, Kaare Andrews, Bruno Forzani, Noboru Iguchi, Jorge Michel Grau, Srdjan Spasojevic, Adam Wingard and many more…
The ABCs of Death is perhaps the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning fifteen countries and featuring segments directed by over two dozen of the world’s leading talents in contemporary genre film, including the directors of House of the Devil, Hobo with a Shotgun, A Serbian Film, Tokyo Gore Police, and You’re Next as well as four homegrown British directors – Ben Wheatley (Sightseers), Simon Rumley (Red, White & Blue), Jake West (Doghouse) and Leeds based Lee Hardcastle, who with his claymation short, won a competition to be the final director (and whose short is one of the highlights of the film).

Bradford After Dark, the festival's home of the creepy, the bizarre and the fantastic, returns to Biff with a handpicked selection of horrifying delights to keep you awake at night. Each of this year's After Dark films (selected by programmer Robert Nevitt) has something slightly different to offer those who seek out the darker side of cinema.

The ABCs of Death
7 March 2013 11:59 PM, PST | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
Directed by: Nacho Vigalondo, Angela Bettis, Ti West, Banjong Pisanthanakun, Adam Wingard, Srdjan Spasojevic, Ben Wheatley, Jason Eisener, and more
Running Time: 2 hrs 9 mins
Rating: R
Release Date: March 8, 2013
Plot: 26 filmmakers from around the world were each given one letter of the alphabet. From there they had free rein to create a killer short horror film based around words ranging from “Apocalypse” to “Zetsumetsu.”
Who’S It For? Some segments will be loved, others hated, but anyone who likes the idea of a horror anthology needs to check this out.
Overall
Twenty-six shorts from 26 directors based on the 26 letters of the alphabet is one ambitious experiment. As a fan of anthologies, I went into The ABCs of Death wanting to like it, but even I’m surprised by how successful I found the film as a whole. Sure, there are a handful of middling entries that »

The ABCs of Death is now available on a variety of VOD services and will receive a limited theatrical release on March 8th. If you’re looking to learn more before checking it out, we have a new featurette with a number of the directors involved talking about the movie and their segment.
“Twenty-six directors. Twenty-six ways to die. The ABC’s Of Death is perhaps the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning fifteen countries and featuring segments directed by over two dozen of the world’s leading talents in contemporary genre film. Inspired by children’s educational books, the motion picture is comprised of twenty-six individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free reign in choosing a word to create a story involving death.”

The ABCs of Death Review
1 February 2013 2:07 PM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »
The ABCs of Death Directed by: Kaare Andrews, Angela Bettis, Hélène Cattet, Ernesto Díaz Espinoza, Jason Eisener, Bruno Forzani, Adrián García Bogliano, Xavier Gens, Lee Hardcastle, Noboru Iguchi, Thomas Cappelen Malling, Jorge Michel Grau, Anders Morgenthaler, Yoshihiro Nishimura, Banjong Pisanthanakun, Simon Rumley, Marcel Sarmiento, Jon Schnepp, Srdjan Spasojevic, Timo Tjahjanto, Andrew Traucki, Nacho Vigalondo, Jake West, Ti West, Ben Wheatley, Adam Wingard, Yudai Yamaguchi The ABCs of Death is at times revolting, inventive, funny and fascinating. It’s also a wildly uneven anthology collection from some of the most well-known horror directors working today. The film was announced a few years ago and rolled out at the Tiff and Fantastic Fest film festivals in 2012. The premise is intriguing. A letter of the alphabet was assigned to 26 different directors with one stipulation: they must create a short starting with that letter and pertaining to death. Then let them have it, no holds barred. »
