Featured review
An atmospheric horror anthology...
Well, this was definitely a horror anthology that had atmosphere, and that is something that counted well in favor of the movie. But I am getting ahead of myself here.
First of all, "The Mortuary Collection" is a horror anthology, which the movie's title sort of also indicates. But just so you know, this is indeed a horror anthology, for better or worse.
The different short stories in the anthology were of various degrees of entertainment and contents, not surprisingly really, as it usually goes with horror anthologies. Some of the stories were very good and interesting, where as some were just bland if not actually unappealing.
I was initially lured in to watch this 2019 anthology because of the movie's cover. Sure, I hadn't even heard about the anthology before now in 2021 as I was given the chance to watch it. Of course I did so, because I enjoy horror and because I was intrigued by the movie's cover/poster. And when I saw that Clancy Brown was in it, this was a given movie to watch.
Personally I liked most of the stories told in the anthology, but oddly enough, as it actually is with many anthologies in my opinion, it was the narrative that binds the various segments together that actually had the most appeal. Perhaps because it was that narrative that had Clancy Brown in it. But it was also a rather enjoyable narrative story binding the other stories together.
Visually then "The Mortuary Collection" was rather interesting and good. I liked the special effects and the make-up. The special effects, both practical and CGI was rather good in all the segments and the narrative. And the make-up and prosthetics department really worked magic in this anthology. I particularly liked what they did in terms of putting make-up on Clancy Brown.
I was genuinely entertained by "The Mortuary Collection", and this is an anthology that I can warmly recommend you spend some time on sitting down watching.
My rating of "The Mortuary Collection" lands on a seven out of ten stars. It is without a doubt one of the better anthologies since the "Creepshow" ones.
