About this movie

Horror master George A. Romero, writer-director of the famed NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, has created the horror anthology GEORGE A. ROMERO PRESENTS DEADTIME STORIES. The second volume of this terrifying set contains the following three short horror films: THE GORGE: Three best friends go hiking on a fun morning expedition when a sudden avalanche leaves them trapped in a cave with no way out. Now imprisoned in a living nightmare, how long can the three survive before they begin to turn on each other? ON SABBATH HILL: A chilling tale about a handsome playboy professor who is a stickler for student attendance. When his wandering affections cause a female admirer to commit suicide, his stern attendance rules come back to haunt him. Literally. DUST: When a scientist at a high-tech space lab discovers dust from the planet Mars might have the ability to cure cancer, a security guard steals a sample for his terminally ill wife. What at first appears to be a miracle cure turns into an unimaginable horror.

Ratings and reviews

If you liked Tales From the Crypt, you'll be fine w these. Similar presentation & cheese factor. They're not very scary, but if you're into short horror stories, this is worth a watch. I WOULD expect more zombie factor from George Romero but he did ok leaning away from what he knows.

I wish the movie had more short stories on it besides 3 of them.

It is not scary at all.
