Clive Barker Horror Movie Box Set - Dread, Midnight Meat Train, Book of Blood [DVD] - Perfect for Halloween Movie Nights & Horror Film Collections

Having seen all of these individually, i was very pleased to see them all in a boxset. Although i was initially put off by the price when first released(£20+)and even considered buying them individually second hand, i perservered with this product, hoping it would come down to a more 'reasonable' price and at last it did do! Here are my opinions on the indiviual films:DREAD: MY second favourite in the boxset. 3 college students decide to do a study based on fear and what makes people afraid. Whats starts off as a normal study however soon takes a sinister turn when it becomes obvious that one of these students has an ulterior motive for taking part. I really liked this movie. I think it was because it doesn't follow the normal horror film path. The bad guy in it isn't an evil supernatural being or a huge masked killer with knives, machetes, etc Hes a normal guy whom you may just meet on a bus, albeit a bit nutty. Yep, worth watching *****THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN: My favourite of the 3 movies. A photographer who goes out taking photos of city night life gets sucked into a surreal world of murder and mayhem when he encounters a serial killer who murders late night commuters on the tube train. The closer he gets to this killer, the more dangerous things get. This film had everything i'd want from a good horror. Suspense, scares, fun, blood and gore. Great stuff! *****BOOK OF BLOOD: For me, the weakest out of the 3 films. A paranormal researcher's investigations lead her to a young man who appears to be channeling messages from the dead. As her investigation intensifies, the line between living and the dead becomes blurred until your left wondering whats real and whats not. I found this film rather confusing for this reason. Sure, it has scares and an ambitious story but i believe it could've been handled better. It also has a 'made-for-tv' kinda feeling about it and you almost get the impression it was added just because like the others, its a book of blood story. Not bad to pass the time though ***All in all, a very decent boxset. Recommended for any Barker or horror fan and for a good price!
