Masters of Horror: Chocolate


I'd heard some bad things about this so I wasn't expecting much, but I was quite surprised. Though Garris does have some good films under his belt, I'd be hard pressed to call him a "master". That said, this was a very good offering. I really enjoyed the plot, even though I'm not usually a fan of psychic stuff. It moved at a good pace until the end, it had some twists, and still left room for a bit of comedy. With one glaring exception the actors were all pretty good. That exception is the girl that our hero was psychically linked with, her delivery was flat and I just overall think she could have done a better job. All in all though, I recommend this. Not as good as the first 2 Masters of Horror DVDs, but a little better than Incident On and Off a Mountain Road.

8/10
