Stories From The Dark Side

About This Movie

Stories From The Dark Side (2018) is a curious entry that blends various narrative threads into a single anthology-style film. It carries a certain atmospheric weight, often veering into the unsettling, reminiscent of classic horror tales. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing each story to linger just enough to unsettle you, though it might test the patience of some. The practical effects, sparse but effective, give it that raw edge which is sometimes missing in today's CGI-heavy fare. Performances vary, but there's a genuine effort to evoke dread and intrigue, making it feel like a throwback to earlier horror. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but I find something compelling in its ambition to explore darker themes.

This film has had a somewhat limited release, making physical copies a rarity among collectors. It’s not widely discussed, which adds to its mystery, leaving some collectors eager to discover its nuances. The combination of anthology format and a modern twist on classic horror elements draws interest, and there’s a growing demand for boutique labels to take a chance on it for a proper release.
