En la década de 1980, Art Barbara no era lo que se dice popular. Era un estudiante solitario que escuchaba hair metal, tenía que dormir con un monstruoso aparato ortopédico por su escoliosis y había iniciado un club extraescolar de voluntarios en funerales poco concurridos. Por eso fue una sorpresa cuando una chica se apuntó al Club de los Portaféretros y le dijo que era una idea genial. ¡Si hasta se llevó su Polaroid para hacer fotos de los cadáveres! Vale, esa parte sí había sido un poco rara. Como también lo era su obsesivo interés por una famosa tradición de Nueva Inglaterra.

Un virus que se contagia como la rabia ha arrasado Massachusetts. Pero, a diferencia de la rabia, el periodo de incubación de esta enfermedad es inferior a una hora. Los afectados pierden el juicio y muerden a otras personas. Los enfermos y los moribundos abarrotan los hospitales, y todos los protocolos de emergencia han resultado ser insuficientes.

In June 1993, a group of young guerilla filmmakers spent four weeks making Horror Movie, a notorious, disturbing, art-house horror flick. The weird part? Only three of the film’s scenes were ever released to the public, but Horror Movie has nevertheless grown a rabid fanbase. Three decades later, Hollywood is pushing for a big budget reboot.

In a matter of weeks, Massachusetts has been overrun by an insidious rabies-like virus that is spread by saliva. But unlike rabies, the disease has a terrifyingly short incubation period of an hour or less. Those infected quickly lose their minds and are driven to bite and infect as many others as they can before they inevitably succumb. Hospitals are inundated with the sick and dying, and hysteria has taken hold. To try to limit its spread, the commonwealth is under quarantine and curfew. But society is breaking down, and the government's emergency protocols are faltering.

Après "Rosemary's Baby" et "L'Exorciste", le nouveau classique de l'horreur. Malgré une mère alcoolique et un père au chômage, la famille Barrett tente de mener une vie ordinaire dans la tranquille banlieue de Beverly, Massachusetts, jusqu'au jour où leur fille de 14 ans, Marjorie, commence à manifester les symptômes d'une étrange schizophrénie. Alors que des événements de plus en plus angoissants se produisent, les Barrett décident de faire appel à un prêtre, qui ne voit qu'une seule solution : l'exorcisme.

Ein Meisterwerk des psychologischen Schreckens. "A Head Full of Ghosts" schildert auf mehreren Zeit- und Personenebenen die Erlebnisse der 14-jährigen Marjorie. Als sie Anzeichen einer Geisteskrankheit zeigt, gipfelt die Hilflosigkeit ihrer Familie und der Ärzte in einem Exorzismus, der als Show live im TV ausgeschlachtet wird. Jahre später gibt Merry, die jüngere Schwester von Marjorie, ein Interview und spricht über die tragischen und unheimlichen Geschehnisse, die seither zur urbanen Legende wurden.

The Little Sleep is Paul Tremblay’s nod to Raymond Chandler starring a PI who nods off. Mark Genevich is a South Boston private detective who happens to have a severe form of narcolepsy, which includes hypnagogic hallucinations, like waking dreams. Unsurprisingly, his practice is not exactly booming. Then one day, the daughter of an ambitious district attorney and a contestant on the reality talent show American Star named Jennifer Times comes to him for help - or does she? A man has stolen her fingers, she claims, and she’d like Genevich to get them back.

Like most private eyes, Mark Genevich is something of a lone wolf. So group therapy isn’t a great fit. But his landlord/mother is convinced it will help his narcolepsy—ignoring the fact that his disorder is a physical condition. Truth is, he has the time. It’s been a year and a half since his last case. It’s never a wise choice to go on a two-day bender with someone you meet in group therapy, but there’s something about Gus that intrigues Genevich. Unfortunately, he’s about to sleepwalk right into a very real nightmare.

Trois inconnus surgissent alors, munis d'armes étranges. Eric et Andrew se barricadent avec Wen, mais les nouveaux venus insistent pour leur proposer un marché : ils ont besoin d'eux pour sauver le monde.

Art Barbara was so not cool. He was a seventeen-year-old high school loner in the late 1980s who listened to hair metal, had to wear a monstrous back-brace at night for his scoliosis, and started an extracurricular club for volunteer pallbearers at poorly attended funerals. But his new friend thought the Pallbearers Club was cool. And she brought along her Polaroid camera to take pictures of the corpses.
