While Tales of Halloween is not the scariest, goriest, or most captivating of anthologies, it does provide an hour and a half of unique and short stories that can make you laugh, squirm, and roll your eyes.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 3, 2023

Hearing the sultry Adrienne Barbeau (channeling DJ Stevie Wayne from The Fog) introducing each story while appearing in none of them is the biggest offense among many.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 17, 2021

It makes for an excellent party movie as there is something for everybody and the stories are short and fun.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Apr 19, 2020

Overall, Tales of Halloween is a feast of autumnal goodness for lovers of witches, ghosts, and pumpkins.

| Original Score: 6 | Feb 24, 2020

Tales Of Halloween isn't just the best anthology film in years, it's one of the best horror movies of the year in its own right.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 26, 2019

... sweet, bloody and downright hilarious.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Aug 9, 2019

This is short, mostly smart and funny horror that will be especially resonant for the kind of independent fare that felt like it was a lot more readily available back in the Seventies.

I can't wait to revisit it again and again, celebrating the best night of the year and my favorite genre with a group of filmmakers clearly having the time of their lives.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Nov 2, 2018

The film's feel and look is remarkable cohesive for an anthology, but the childish tone made the entire film feel like a 1980s after school special than a showcase for the best contemporary film directors.

... is uneven... [Full review in Spanish]

| Jan 20, 2018

As anthologies go, this one is a heck of a lot of fun, even the misses having a spunky, go-for-broke attitude worthy of going a tiny bit crazy for.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 22, 2016

...a delight for horror fans, with many in-jokes and references to prior horror films.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Dec 10, 2015

The level of quality is consistent, though there is eventually a tendency to repetition as most stories focus on horrible people who get just desserts in amusingly horrid ways.

| Dec 7, 2015

While it pales in comparison to such horror anthology predecessors as Tales from the Crypt, Asylum and Creepshow, Tales of Halloween offers enough minor diversions to make it enjoyable late-night viewing.

| Dec 7, 2015

Tales of Halloween is good fun, but it's difficult not to wish that more of the stories had aimed for darker, more terrifying and affecting goals.

| Original Score: B- | Dec 7, 2015

These are not, collectively, the best horror shorts out there, but if you're looking for something fun to kick ff your Halloween party, you could do a lot worse.

As is the case with all films of this type, your mileage will vary depending on the number of stories that you wind up liking.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 7, 2015

A tricky and senseless anthology, there's no connection between stories, except some characters that have some things in common with each other. [Full review in Spanish]

| Nov 19, 2015

The best part of it are the cameos and homages of horror legends like John Landis, Joe Dante, Adrienne Barbeau and many others. [Full review in Spanish]

| Nov 19, 2015

A series of uneven stories that only works when it relies in humor. [Full review in Spanish]
