Tales from the Dead

About This Movie

Tales from the Dead is this intriguing Japanese anthology that offers four distinctly chilling ghost stories. Each segment plays with fear in different ways, from haunting revenge tales to thoughtful reflections on life's fragility. The atmosphere is thick with suspense, and the pacing varies—some stories draw you in slowly, while others hit hard and fast. The practical effects have this rawness that adds to the eerie vibe, and the performances really sell the horror, making each character's plight feel real. It's not your typical hack-and-slash; there's a certain artistry in how these tales unfold, which sets it apart from many Western horror anthologies.
