While the subject matter of the stories is intended to explore racial problems using the horror genre, the film mostly falls flat because of sub-standard writing.
By far the worst of the bunch is the second segment - a truly dreadful script - but elsewhere there isn't really much that shines, in spite of the very competent cast.
Thanks to Laura Crichlow's performance, the most successful story is probably the period piece, and elements of humour sometimes rescues the final story from mediocrity.
Overall, a wasted opportunity which doesn't do black cinema much in the way of favours.
Given that this site is now insisting that I type more, and having nothing else of importance to say, I'll point out that it's now raining outside my window.
