Black Mirror, The Outter Limits and The Twilight Zone were among the legendary Science Fiction anthology films of all time. Substance and telling stories about human nature from new perspectives.

This on the other hand comes on strong and you really get the vibe from those legendary films but then falls flat after a peak midway through the series of short sci-fi short films.

I can't say much more without trash talking and pointing out that since it is an anthology they could really have tried much harder to perfect the selection (there are others out there that would have made this a top notch compilation of shorts.

So as an anthology of which this is not because real anthologies direct their own stories and don't just lump together a bunch of other people's, I thought not too many of them were very good and some were only vaguely science-fiction themed from where I was looking, and I thought most of them were just sloppy and rushed and kind of all over the place like "Flesh Computer" and "Eden" and especially "Kingz" which I found moronic and especially unappealing...German rap, no thanks.. To me the highlights of the shorts were "Iris", where a man's sentient Iphone-like device gets the better of him when it disapproves of his callously murderous ways, that one had a nice easy setup and payoff and was coherent and darkly comical and macabre enough at the end that it was the one short that actually felt like it could have been in a horror comic! "Pathos" I thought was a very sharply made and grim story of dark sci-fi that sees mankind condemned to a nightmarish hell of existing as complete slaves to a ruthless computer system that was originally meant to free the mind of man from the harshness of a hopelessly polluted reality... It was very atmospheric and visually striking and a little saddening, that short had a lot going for it from a thematic standpoint, it had me pondering on it a little afterwards... Are we all going to be freakish techno slaves in the future? I liked "Entity" too because it had a lot of claustrophobic ambiance, if that's the correct word for a story about a woman lost floating in space.. It made you scared for the woman and feel her incomprehensible fear as she was drawn into the gulf of some unfathomable cosmic horror. I didn't entirely get the confusing ending but I enjoyed the buildup and the visuals of it, it had an effectively vast, celestial feel to it. And it was kinda lame but I liked the wraparound thing with the poor guy stuck in the malfunctioning cryogenic pod and forced to watch space tales of terror as his life support slowly dwindled as he failed to guess the correct password, and when he finally did it really wasn't much help! This anthology was about decent, I didn't enjoy it as much as "Minutes After Midnight", but I always like to see as many new short films as I can to hopefully find the gems, and this didn't really have any, but sci-fi short films are always hit and miss and tricky to do well compared to the horror ones. Not particularly good but it's worth a look at least once for the better stories. Enjoyable!!
