Horror Anthology
26 August 2023
"Tell Me A Creepy Story" is a horror anthology released in 2023. The movie is directed by Samuel Dawe, Félix Dobaire, and Stuart Graham, and written by Samuel Dawe, Félix Dobaire, and Paul Holbrook 1.

The movie features a collection of tales dealing with serial murderers, home invasions, insatiable hunger, and more 1. The storyline includes a beekeeper who accidentally kills his wife before nervously burying her body under his vegetable patch, a child born with an insatiable and increasingly inhumane appetite, and a detective struggling with a number of missing children cases.

The downside is the film does not have a common over-arcing framework or theme connecting the four stories. Some of the stories don't even make much sense. As another reviewer said, its really four short stories with very little in common which each other sown together into a 1 hr and 26 minute run time. My favorite one would be the first one because the sounds of chewing made me uncomfortable and now I understand my sister-in-law who can't stand people who chew with their mouth open. Lol. This first short story made me see things from her point of view.

I won't say don't watch it. Just keep expectations low. It might be a stop gap between other movies or when you have time to kill. I like horror anthologies, but this one isn't successful which is a shame because some of the special effects were pretty good with the first two stories.
