Don't sleep on this

You've most likely heard of A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare. Well this is A Midsommar Night's Dream. This thing's a banger!

Directed by Ivan Asen (Ender's Game), Chad Heffelfinger (Get Out), and Cody Heffelfinger (The First Purge), Spooky boasts some stellar talent.

Here's the premise: Before his blind date, our affable and humorous host, Doug Jones (Abe Sapien of Hellboy), discovers that his TV has opened up a new application, Spooky , of its own volition. It's an app that comes with some very enticing otherworldly features, and it insists that Doug watches the movies it has in store.

Anyway, this is one of the strangest fever drea- anthologies I've seen in a while. I'm not positive, but I strongly believe, based on evidence, that this anthology's intended to be a satirical pastiche of straight-to-TV horror anthologies. The production quality oscillates wildly, yet with such precision that I can't help but believe it is intentional. The pastiche theory is even more compelling when considering the clever and sparse use of low-quality practical effects, the excellent scripting, the deliciously campy acting that swings harder than Benny Goodman, and some splendidly gaudy, brilliant sound design.

We've got 10 stories that are all over the freakin' place in the most wonderful way, containing anything from a vampiric human-slayer, to a yogi who creates a new market for herself during a zombie outbreak, then back around the block to a story about a young girl that believes her toys are getting jealous of her new relationship.
