III Slices of Life (2010)
Fun Independent Horror Film
I saw "Slices of Life" (called "3 Slices of Life" now apparently) at the Horror Society Film Festival in Chicago, and was pleasantly surprised by it.
The filmmakers' introduced the picture as a "micro-budget independent horror film", or something to that affect, and that it took four years to make from start to finish. "Slices" hearkens back to those horror anthologies of the '80s where there are a number of story segments (in this case three of them) along with a wraparound story that brings them all together. Each story has its own tone, look, and feel that probably owes much to the film's length of production, with each segment looking better than the last. I don't remember the segments names, but story-wise there are Office Techno-Zombies, Demon Kids, Vagina Monsters, and Magic Books of Flesh! I went with a couple of friends, and each of us had a different favorite story segment.
Considering how low budget the film must have been, the end result is very impressive. Overall "Slices" is pretty fun and twisted, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Check it out if you get a chance!
