Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

burgif I am amazed with all the negative here, this show so far is superb, put it this way it is the twilight zone; tales from the crypt and the outer limits in one show, it is far more entertaining than the flood of B grade horror movies that came recently, the show episodes deals with different horror themes like Canibalism and witchcraft in (Eater), Zombies in (New Years Eve), Vampires in (Sacrifice), Ghosts in (Spooked), Body switch in (Family man) and the list go on. The actors, the scenario, the direction and the cinematography are all excellent, in short words this series is for the die hard horror fan and I really wish that the producers of this show just keep making more seasons of this amazing series.

raavveenn I missed the first episode and I thought to myself, maybe this will be horrible.Then 'Spooked' came on and it wasn't as bad as expected but Eric Roberts acted good and the shocker was that there was no one living in that house at all and the girl was the ghost's sister and he accidentally gets shot by his buddy in the end and the sister gives a little grin. I found out what was happening when he walked into the empty house.Along comes 'The Family Man' which has to be the greatest episode I've ever seen, even better than 'Masters of Horror,' with an ending so magnificent, I was in shock.'IN Sickness and IN Health,' well, I don't want to talk about it.and Eater with a great ending, good ending and creepy characters, also a great story and sets, that one gets my vote.Overall I love Fear Itself and if it plays more episodes along the lines of 'The Family Man' and 'Eater' it might be the king.

Navaros Horror anthology on TV has been getting progressively worse since it hit it's pinnacle with Tales From the Crypt (TFTC). TFTC was an amazingly brilliant masterpiece of horror TV anthology series that set the bar for this type of programming as high as it could possibly be. ittedly, TFTC jumped the shark and became a bad show in Season 7 when it moved production from USA to Britain for no reason. But that is only 1 bad Season out of 7. TFTC still provided 6 Seasons worth of perfect TV horror.Then came Masters of Horror (MoH), and next notable TV horror anthology series. MoH was hit and miss. 8 of the 26 episodes of MoH were brilliant masterpieces. The other 18, however, ranged from mediocre to terrible; the lion's share being terrible. Despite being a bad series overall, at least that's 8 brilliant episodes of horror television that MoH contributed to the annals of great TV horror.Then comes Fear Itself. Fear Itself is by it's very format, a vastly degraded version of MoH. TFTC which was made for HBO, MoH was made for Showtime. Both channels are not standard channels which the FCC regulates a lot and therefore both shows were able to get away with a lot more mature content than Fear Itself ever had any hope of doing on NBC. The result of this that that Fear Itself is by it's very format, a show geared for little kids. In of format and flexibility about what content they cannot show, Fear Itself is exactly on par with the old kids' TV shows "Goosebumps" or "Bonechillers" or "Are You Afraid of the Dark?".However, although they are exactly on par with each other in of tone and what they cannot show, the *quality* of the content of Fear Itself is laughably worse than all of those kids' shows, to an extreme degree.Fear Itself is horror anthology TV hitting rock bottom.The 'theme song' to Fear Itself sounds like it's sung by a laboratory baboon who has just been injected by mad scientists with all kinds of wacky drugs. The 'singing' is profoundly asinine and painful to the ears. A shame that such good visuals during the opening credits are utterly ruined with that babyish assault upon the senses of a 'song'.You may often have heard that Fear Itself is an hour long - that's wrong, don't believe it. Fear Itself is only 42 minutes long and 18 minutes of commercials. Despite having a very short 42 minute running-time, Fear Itself cannot even fill a fraction of that with meaningful content.Fear Itself fails by trying to pad 15 minutes worth of content into 42 minutes. It's a problem with bad scripts and bad writing far more-so than running-time. The 42 minute running-time of Fear Itself is ittedly a less-than-ideal handicap for good storytelling. But Fear Itself doesn't do much of anything with the characters or plot even with the time they *do* have. In Fear Itself, the amount of content in the episode does not fit with the running-time of the episode. For example, look at the 'In Sickness and in Health' episode; 17 minutes wasted on repeating the same content over and over again (a bride panicking about a note in the Church and having inane conversations with her friends). All of that content which could *easily* have fit into 5 minutes or less.The acting in Fear Itself is terrible across the board. As is the writing. As are the production values. As are the monster effects. As is the overall atmosphere which looks amateurish, as if it's shot with the cheapest rundown consumer camcorder you would find a local pawn shop. Definitely no suspense or scares to be found in Fear Itself. Fear Itself only employs D-List actors or worse. Sometimes, like in the episode 'Family Man', the D-List actors can surprise you and be excellent at acting. *Usually* though, they will be every bit as terrible as you expected them to be.Almost every episode has dozens of plot-holes. To add insult to injury, the 'stories' are just rehashes of stale-old clichés that have been done a million times before.Any viewer of Fear Itself could *undoubtedly* write *much* better dialogue, characters, and plot lines than are in Fear Itself; even someone with no talent for writing whatsoever.A feature-length running-time is not required to tell a good story, as some have argued to try to make excuses for Fear Itself. For example, the MoH episode 'Incident on and Off a Mountain Road.' 55 minutes minus a few for opening and closing credits, and it had brilliant character & plot development and is a masterpiece in own right. Likewise with the MoH episode 'The Black Cat' which is ~57 minutes minus opening credits.TFTC was a half-hour show, but those characters and plots were amazingly immersing and fleshed-out *despite that* in almost every single episode. In fact, some people TFTC as being 1 hour episodes because the episodes *feel* like they are due to being so richly-made with great characters and plots. That's *with* the opening and closing credits *and* Cryptkeeper's bookend segments before and after the content of each episode eating into the episode content time. Which just makes the accomplishment all the more remarkable.Understandably, some horror fans want to accept Fear Itself simply because it is horror on TV, which in and of itself is a rare thing. The problem with accepting Fear Itself , despite it being garbage, is that it sets the bar for horror TV as low as it can possibly be. If that precedent is accepted, then future horror TV shows will be just as bad. Therefore, it is better to be honest about Fear Itself in order to let the makers of horror know that a good horror product is expected in the future, not more crap.
