Peur(s) du noir

I liked the bug story and the Japanese school girl segment was rather unique.. but the rest was pretty forgettable and the monologues in between were horrible.

It's hard to know what I think about this as it is six distinct offerings. Half were good (the man in the house, the abstract interludes and the solitary bugwatcher) half weren't so good (the man with the dogs, the Japanese schoolgirl and the village attacked by a monster). Worth watching, I think. Perhaps it could have done with a tighter specification being handed to the directors.

Alright

The parts don't all really complement each other, and some are much better than others. I haven't seen a lot of animated horror movies though, and this one was mostly cool.

Too little in common between these six animated shorts to call it a concept film. Although I liked the idea of it at first, but it seems too little work was put into scripting, and in the end it is just a showcase of animators' work. Film offers a few different and quite interesting styles of animation. Abstract monologue interludes were my favorites, and the part about japanese schoolgirl was just terrible.

"All told, the entire collection runs about 82 minutes, and it closes with one dazzlingly (darkly) amazing piece of animation."

"A collection of superbly wrought black-and-white animated vignettes." - Nick Schager

Visually great...like the b/w optic very much, but there's nothing scary about it, and the story isn't very thrilling or interesting too.some kind of burton / gilliam mix but overall nothing special.

They don't work well together for their styles are vastly different. However, they are most definitely creepy and I still remember the imagery from all 6 of these shorts.
