One of the better crafted episodes of MoH. It's not the best horror tale ever, but George Wendt puts on a great performance. I could easily watch this multiple times.

George Wendt was great but the other two leads not so much. Every time it switched over to the couple's storyline I was bored. The twist was a waste and I was hoping it would end on a meaner note.

A shift away from the gory slapstick of Deer Woman and towards butt ugly black comedy and legit scares. It's at least as effective at what it does as that previous short, although its world is scaled down to a fishbowl and its tone is subdued. The performances aren't all up to the task of making something small like this work. George Wendt is sufficiently pathetic and keeps you involved, but the rest of the cast is too weak to garner much interest.

Interesting idea that sort of works more in the comedy element than the horror one (though it has some decent thrilling moments). The concept was very interesting and the ending worked for me. Funny story and an episode I certainly enjoyed.

Was not all that happy with this one. I was excited to see George Wendt as "the bad guy" but then I just felt sorry for him and his victims. It was a neato concept that fell flat with some bad acting.

Has the feel of a 90s sitcom, and is not anywhere near what you'd call 'horror,' but the solid acting by George Wendt and the lack of a plastic puppet antagonist makes this one of the better MoH installments.

Like most of MoH, no better than a very good Tales from the Crypt episode.

Not a disaster but pedestrian and forgettable.
