“Tales from the Mopey Side” is more like it. The first segment in this set of three (plus bracket) is a reasonably entertaining take on “Lot 249” by Arthur Conan Doyle. The other two spots are considerably more mediocre, more depressing than spooky despite their supernatural underpinnings. And production-value-wise, this is very much the kin of the George-Romero-produced TV series that spawned it. Overall this is a cut or two above the average horror anthology piece, but that’s a fairly low standard of comparison. Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
