Splendid and Playful Little Jaunt!
Just watch the opening sequence and you know you’re in for a treat.

This movie (1:30 long) is one of the most playful and enjoyable anthologies I’ve seen in a good while. I think what sets it apart from others is that it doesn’t take itself too seriously and it knows it. All the stories are cleverly produced with rather good acting and effects, camera angles, etc. The only drawback is that, while it is very entertaining all the way through, it isn’t necessarily entirely filled with horror. The up side to this is that we’re given a wide spectrum of horror, suspense, and thriller so that it doesn’t grow stale over time.

There are 5 tales and they each feel as if you’re being given a gift to open and enjoy. Pretty packaging, full content, and the stories are enthralling to say the least. It’s easy to get into the stories and look forward to what’s coming next. Even greater is the fact that they are all tied together with subtle clues as to how they are connected. But these subtleties are important enough to make you feel the connection in a very roundabout way such as in “Cabin in the Woods.”

I’ll go into a brief synopsis of each tale so you can get an idea of what to expect (skip this if you’d rather know nothing going in, but I’ve kept it bare minimum):

1. Smell – This tale is about a man who is down on his luck but picks up a special aroma that turns his life around, but at what price? As an opener, this one doesn’t quite set the stage for what’s to come. It’s possibly the most playful of the 5 tales, but the ending is pretty funky fresh haha. This one is often considered a weaker tale, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. It’s full-bodied and robust *see what I did there?* =D

2. Sight – This tale is about a lonely man who works as an optometrist and uses his machines to extract memories from his patients in order to enjoy their memories. He’s a stalker basically, but when he finally takes certain matters into his own hands, trouble ensues. This one is rather short, but the build up is great and the finale is very enjoyable and somewhat psychedelic. It is chilling, gory to a degree, and creepy. The approach of sight on this one is very creative and engaging.

3. Touch – The best tale in my opinion, this one is about a blind boy who seeks help for his family after a car crash. This tale is amazing and feels so real and almost empowering as the boy makes his way through a rather troublesome environment. It’s further strengthened by the boy’s intelligence.

4. Taste – If you’ve paid attention to the clues throughout the film, this is where they lead you – what ties the tales together. This tale involves a young man who is offered a job for a strange company. Upon his arrival, things get a little. .. .distasteful. You’ll never see this one coming, and it’s a bit funny while also a tad gruesome.

5. Hearing – A found-footage attempt, this film involves a crew who’s task is to compile some found footage into one film. The film involves a song that has lethal effects on it’s listeners. This one is possibly the weakest. It is a great idea, but it lacks in proper execution. It’s neat little way to end everything though I suppose. Not unenjoyable, but not really super enjoyable either.

Keep in mind that these were filmed in roughly 4 days per tale, so the window wasn’t large, but they did amazing considering.

sometimes 5 senses are not enough
This movie contradicts its own premise in a way. The short vignette format works very well for horror, maybe because we don’t really want to stay in those designed to be unpleasant environs for way too long. Everyone can remember being exhausted by some bloody and horrific film going on and on, like a nightmare we’d much rather just wake up from. Once we meet the good guys and the bad guys and the severed heads start flying, we get the idea pretty quick. The great old Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock TV shows both used only very short tales that were just long enough, they led us into and back out again of an chilling or startling worldview in a way that was just complete enough to be satisfying and never too much to be dull, like a great restaurant that brings just enough to your plate, but not piled on with a ladle. The problem with this effort is that the brevity is actually too brief. It suggests a writer’s laziness instead of a skilled and intuitive conciseness. After each segment we are surprised by the fade out and ask, “Wait. Is that all?” This is especially true of the middle film about a clever blind boy, we just barely meet him and he takes his leave, and he is an intriguing enough character that we would love to get to know him more. The 5 senses motif is really just a pose of course, like a writer’s class exercise, it offers nothing substantial to increase interest and every storyline is pretty much unoriginal and forgettable except the final one about a song that kills people. That is just bizarre enough to leave a permanent mark. One cute trick the filmmakers use is to recycle the actors, proper names and places in unexpected ways in different stories so that we get to have fun keeping track and see who pops up again. I kept expecting some of them to wink at the camera and say “Hey! Remember me”? I would be happy to wave back.
