The directorial debut of 15-year old horror movie sensation Johnny Dickie, Slaughter Tales is a loving tribute to the no-budget horror video revolution of the 1980s, featuring practical special effects, stop-motion animation and genuine storytelling. A teenager steals a mysterious VHS tape from a flea market only to find himself tormented by the spirits that are trapped inside it and the horrible film within. Ignoring a spiritual warning not to watch the tape, he pops it in anyway, and seals his fate. What follows is a 90 minute fever dream horror anthology, where each story is worse than the last. But is he living the worst story of them all? Slaughter Tales is more than a bad movie, it is a video nightmare you can't escape!

A true masterpiece that homors its VHS roots
