Welcome
to the world of Tom Holland, where the macabre is always welcome.
This is a series of short stories, from mad men (and woman),
supernatural creatures, making deals with the devil, to even the end
of the world. Each story tells a tail of about human desire and
revenge..with dark consequences, that when dealing with forces of
evil, be careful what you wish for... because you just might
get
it.
These
are a series of campfire/ghost stories, each one with it's own unique
twist and moral, how dark desires can lead to one's downfall. And in
the end, making deals with the devil it is the devil who always wins;
that evil is born from human nature and their hearts.
Tom
Holland is writer, director and actor in his film Twisted Tales,
while he is famous for his tales of horror, I found the actual
Twisted Tales stories fright level to be about middle school
level. While there was a bit of blood, dismemberment, violence and
monsters, it was fake looking and thus wasn't very scary.
Picture
and sound quality can vary from short to short, so expect unevenness
in presentation and some to look better than others. Extras include
the making of the tales.
